NO JIHAD ZONE

VIOLATERS WILL BE
SLATHERED WITH PORK FAT
BEATEN BY A WOMAN
AND MARTYRED

Atheism is for the willfully blind or perhaps stupid.

How about we pray for their conversion and hope for the defeat/destruction of those who refuse to convert? That way, we can be in touch with both our spiritual and human sides at the same time...

Kill ‘em all, and let Allah sort them.

In my morning prayers I pray for ISIS to be stopped and killed. I don’t waste time praying for their salvation. Complete waste of time and energy. Let God deal with ISIS’s salvation. After all He designed and created them. I have way too many other things on my prayer list already and have to prioritize. To hell with ISIS.

Absolutely correct. If all of ISIS converted to Christianity, it would be defeated as a Islamic force.

I have always maintained the proper way to pray for your non-Christian enemies is to pray that God would do to them exactly what He did to Saul of Tarsus. Totally destroy the old man that was Saul of Tarsus and replaced him with greatest teacher the Church has ever known. No heart is too hard for the Holy Spirit to soften, even the evilest of terrorists.

How does this Scripture fit in?

Gospel Mt 5:43-48

Jesus said to his disciples:
“You have heard that it was said,
You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.
But I say to you, love your enemies,
and pray for those who persecute you,
that you may be children of your heavenly Father,
for he makes his sun rise on the bad and the good,
and causes rain to fall on the just and the unjust.
For if you love those who love you, what recompense will you have?
Do not the tax collectors do the same?
And if you greet your brothers and sisters only,
what is unusual about that?
Do not the pagans do the same?
So be perfect, just as your heavenly Father is perfect.”
