"Those of Islam should understand that this is true martyrdom. Not killing yourself murdering for allah and his prophet, but being murdered because you love and serve Jesus and your fellow man."

“Blessed are you when others revile you and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against you falsely on my account. Rejoice and be glad, for your reward is great in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you." Mat 5:11-12

Too bad the Latins are going to insist on waiting for two confirmed miracles before they will proclaim their martyrs as saints. We Orthodox will do it immediately, and let the hierarchs catch up (following the example of St. Herman of Alaska in the case of the New-Martyr Peter the Aleut), thusly:

“Holy new-martyrs of Abuja, pray Christ God that our souls be saved.”

The sooner people recognize evil and react appropriately, the sooner peace will return to the earth.

[Steelfish]

But isn’t that what the massacre is intended to do?

[NY Attitude]

Are you sure that that the teachings are to kill the infidel where ever they may be?

[Steelfish]

In self-defense, yes.

[NY Attitude]

Some how, the ROP doesn’t quite buy in to that philosophy when it comes to Christians.

Don’t wait till it comes to your neighborhood.

[Grunthor]

Alive somewhere else is not better than dead?
