Plenty. Was a missionary from 13-18. Had stones thrown at us and them shooting guns at us. We sent to some of the dirtiest ghettos handing pamphlets and preachingthe cross. My father was a minister and I planned to be a missionary. I understand the risks you take. Id get beat up I in school for being a christian . I took those beatdowns for years.
I still dream of going over seas and preaching the gospel. I knew the risks of death and torture were possible but I still feel that a my calling.
So no, the risks are minimized because I be been prepared to do for Christ for about 20 years now.
Not trying to be a bitch here, but this seems very arrogant. What makes you think these people need your brand of saving? Because YOU believe in it? Your lack of humility is strange to me and cramming your beliefs down people's throats, well, I can't sympathize.

What's poppycock? That the real power of Christianity came with it being coupled with the Roman Empire?
No, what I bolded for you.

Catholics did not start Christianity. And it did not start 325 years after Jesus died. That's just false. That's not when it started.

You believe that. I don't. And what for the tribes in the jungles? They get a free pass into Heaven because you couldn't reach them, but I go to Hell because I rejected your God. Your God sounds needy, narcissistic and like a PMS'y woman.

quote:Totally understand that. But for us, the targets of all that murderous hatred, not looking, not watching, or watching - it's not going away. As a nation, we are somehow going to have to man up to the terrible task ahead of us - of dealing with these miscreant personifications of pure evil. And this while we still can.
i watched one from a long time ago...no desire to watch another one
This is a far worse evil that the Soviets were. They were godless; this evil claims to do what it does in the name of god. And if it remains unchecked, it will spread and grow stronger.
We must quit playing political games with each other here at home and come to grips with the reality that is before us. Make no mistake - it can happen here. Ignoring it, renaming it, or somehow pretending it isn't going to hurt us will not deter their foul ambition. They want to kill us all.

We need to ball-up as a nation, and take care of these stinking Muslims once and for all using the full force of the American military. Glass every mosque, and let the communities know they have 48 hours to turn in every radical Muslim in it. If there is an attack after that, the community will no longer be protected under rules of engagement and will be glassed. We need to understand that we are at war!!! We would have never won ww2 without firebombing Tokyo, bombing the snot outta Berlin, and of course nuking Hiroshima and Nagasaki. We didn't start this war... Islam did. Now we need to finish it once and for all definitively BC the longer it drags on with half-measures and posturing, the more innocent ppl are gonna die.

I see things have escalated just a tad since I last posted in this thread.

Sometimes it seems like that.

I mean I am every bit intolerant as the next backwoods southern country boy.
Just seems like killing all of them may be a tad much though

Worst part of the video was the noise when the attack started.

The one thing me and you will always agree about.
I would die for my faith as well. Gun to my head I'll still never deny who my savior is.
I might read words off a page like that guy rejecting the US if it meant a chance to live and I had been tortured for the past 2 years....but I would never deny my faith.

Video has been taken down on gawker.
I found a copy on a website called leaksource.info
Unsure if sending link to page is an offense for banhammer so I won't direct link.
Video is just the reporter reciting what was given to him. Another guy in a black outfit says some things then slits his throat. Doesn't show the beheading but does show end result.
These are the sick fricks that need to be wiped out and tossed into latrines lined with dead pigs.

I was just making a play on his username, "sumtimeitbeslikedat".
I have no idea what the answer is.
I can only add this, I was in Istanbul, Turkey when the Syria stuff first came to light and there were threats of the US starting to bomb the area about 2 years ago. Plenty of people said we were crazy for going, be incredibly careful and on and on. While we were there we picked the brains of some of our guides about the situation and every single person said they were all hoping any day to hear that the US was coming in and starting bombing raids. It was then that I realized that these groups have very little support anywhere in the world. These really are a tiny little group of sick people that happened upon an excuse to live out worst sickness of their imaginations.
As my best friend that served in Afghanistan as a helicopter medic told me, these people have nothing to live for out in the middle of nothing. Using their religion as a "cause" to inflict harm gives them purpose and virtually their only entertainment. What I don't understand is how technology and travel hasn't changed this dynamic.
Next, my father made the point that these people don't value life or time in any way like we do. We talk about how long this or other wars have drawn on, it is nothing to them. They speak in terms of generations or centuries when they talk about war.
What I truly don't understand is why every nation in the world isn't banding together hurt their infrastructure and ruin them. How are we every looked at as the enemies of these people is so frustrating. We should be one part of a united front against a group like this.
