Maybe if we tiptoe around the poor dears, not saying or doing anything that could conceivably arouse their ire, this kind of thing won’t happen. After all, we don’t want to talk too much about it, because as we all know, “talk about extreme, militant Islamists and the atrocities that they have perpetrated globally might undercut the positive achievements that we Catholics have attained in our inter-religious dialogue with devout Muslims.” — Robert McManus, Roman Catholic Bishop of Worcester, Massachusetts, February 8, 2013
An update on this story. “KENYA: Six Fatalities After Church Attacked by Gunmen,” from the Canada Free Press, April 3 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
On the morning of March 23rd, as a congregation gathered for worship at their church in Likoni, a hooded gunman burst through the church’s back door and began firing indiscriminately. Those who tried to flee through the church’s main door were met with gunfire from several more assailants waiting outside.
“They forced their way through the rear door, shot the watchman who staggered into the church before falling down. One attacker shouted ‘Allah Akbar!’ and started shooting in every direction,” a devastated survivor shared.
As suddenly as they had come, the attackers abruptly and calmly walked away, disappearing into the surrounding slums. Police later found a box containing 36 rounds of ammunition that had been left at the scene.
Six Christians died from the assault, while over 20 were hospitalized. Many of the injured had gunshot wounds while others suffered soft tissue injuries due to their panicked attempts to escape the church.
Although, at last report, no group had claimed responsibility for the attack, it is widely suspected to be the work of the Somali Islamic terrorist group, Al Shabaab, or its sympathizers….

Islam is like the virus RABIES, 100 percent fatal as far as the souls of its adherents are concerned. This pestilence needs to be eradicated by exposing it to the light of Christ by publically comparing the life of Jesus with that of demon possessed Mohammed in schools snd on secular TV and radio, magazine and newspaper.
Salah says
There you go. The key word here is: PUBLICLY
Indeed, that’s exactly what we should be doing: Publicly Unveiling Muhammad. What’s stopping us? Political Correctness, the real source of all evil.
Muhammad the founder of Islam, was he perfect?

It really takes little to kill for Allah, little brains, little morals or ethics, little respect, no love or compassion at all. Born killers. The monster from the id, has taken over. the mosque and is now holding services. This is a lot like a bad 1950’s horror movie, ‘Killer Zombies from the Mosque’…
Andy says
Islam zombies in action. They think they have the right from poor allah to destroyed the whole universe.

For everyone’s information…
There’s no such duty mandated in the holy Koran. It’s ethical wrong to assume that, when you clearly haven’t got your facts right, sorry.
It’s very frequent, that we read bad news related to Muslims, and unfortunately they cover for other news where Christian, Jews etc. do worse. Maybe not in the same way, but by rapping their own kids or something even worse. Besides most wars and attack have been started by people who weren’t Muslims, but if a Muslim has participated somehow, that’s the person you hear about.
As a journalist I know many of the stories that don’t make it to the media platform of political reasons.
So as long as you don’t have any insider knowledge, you shouldn’t speak out and conclude, what is typical and what isn’t. That’s just common sense.
Unless you have a duty in your own religion that instructs you to be an attacker by generalizing a whole religion and its members. I doubt it.
But I hope for you that you’ll soon learn to enlarge your horizon, instead of being so myopic – it doesn’t fit any healthy human being. You know if you are on or not. Peace.

@ Rita –
“There’s no such duty mandated in the holy Koran.”
Oh, really?

Now, show me all the other religions that have open-ended commands for their adherents to commit violence against unbelievers.
And then show me which adherents of those religions are committing such acts against unbelievers, all over the world, on a regular basis, in obedience to those commands.
Lastly, do you condemn the slaughter of these Christians by these Muslims? Yes or no?

Your infantile lies and obfuscations can’t cover up the dead bodies and bloodshed by musl0nazis such as yourself. You’re incredibly stupid, arrogant or both to think those lies will fly here.
