Yeah, Mona, just keep lighting candles; it makes it easier to see your arse as a target in the dark. Should take out a few more Hezbo sympathizers in the process.

No surprise here. No surprise here at all.

For you American "Bible chr*stians," these people are the direct descendants of the first non-Jews converted by Paul. This is real, historical chr*stianity. You might want to reconsider your dedication to a religion you don't really know anything about and which you practice only in a form condemned by the rest of the chr*stian world.

"Nasrallah is one of our own. He is realising our dreams."

Barbarian dreams, no doubt. What utter trash this is.

Well, they must be Biblically-illiterate Christians if they are Christians. And they must not have read or believed what will happen to the enemies of Israel, especially in the Latter Years.

You don't know much about traditional, historical, liturgical chr*stianity, do you?

Most chr*stians for the past 2000 years have had very little knowledge of the Bible, and furthermore insist that the messianic advent was 2000 years ago. They are hostile to a future messianic advent.

The world seems to be a Mardi Gra.. Lots of masks and beads.. and floats..

You have something to back up your assertion that the first Pagan to Christian converts wanted Israel destroyed, or are you just pulling stuff out of your a** again?

The South American, Asian, and European Christians I've met believe the same articles of faith I do.

Uh, yah, that's why the Lebonese Christians fought along side the IDF in '82.

There's nothing that unites the Arabs--Muslims and Christians alike--like their hatred of the Jews.

Not very Christian like?

Actually, it might be more accurate to say the Christian and Druz Lebanese see themselves as Phoenician living under Arab conquest. Arabs in language only. The one I've known and worked with closely saw the Jewish state as a fickle Allie at worst.

The politics and shifting alliances of Lebanon are the most contradictory and complicated in the Arab world. Syrian and Lebanese Christians do not always think along the same lines.

"Pray for the resistance, pray for Hassan Nasrallah. He is defending justice," Father Elias Zahlawi told the congregation at special mass held at the Lady of Damascus, a Catholic church.

So here it is...A catholic priest...What do they call these things, a manifestation of Jesus or some other ridiculous definition...

The 'one true church' of Jesus Christ...The Spirit filled church of all truth...And it's members and priest are praying to God to protect and help an unsaved, demon possessed heathen kill God's chosen people, the Jews...

Nassrallah is the enemy of God...And any church that supports him is an enemy of God...Period...

Local Maronites have said as much--that some Lebanese are not Arab, but Phoenician...whatever that precise distinction may be. And the locals (Central Florida) do NOT support Hezbollah

You believe Reuters?

Condemned by the rest of the world? That puts us in good company with Orthodox Jews. If these are the descendants of pagans converted by Paul, then their ancestors are disappointed. But hey, how many Jew run around twisting their faith on the alter of materialism? People stray.

A better question, how many Israeli arabs live peacefully with Jews and Christians, and condem Hezbolla?

A recent Olympic Games featured a female runner from Syria, who wore a cross.

I suppose 50% of Christians vote democrat, what's the difference?

Jews vote 75% for dems, I wonder how many would consider Hezbolla freedom fighters?

My brother wife(who is a Syrian Christian) hates me because I am pro-Israel. She does not talk to me anymore.
