The people of southern Sudan live with terrorism and slavery every day, says a Sudanese Episcopal bishop visiting the Richmond area.

"Christians in the Sudan are being killed and churches are being burned," said Nathaniel Garang Anyieth, bishop of the Diocese of Bor of the Episcopal Church of Sudan.

Sudanese oil is sold in the United States by Amoco and BP gas stations, Handy said. "I have preached from a number of pulpits: 'At least don't buy Amoco and BP gas. At least don't finance the killing of Christians.'"

count me in, no more Amoco or BP for me.

If we can help Bosnian Muslims why not Sudanese Christians?

"Declaring a jihad In the 1990s, the government declared a jihad against the Christian south and vowed that the Sudan would be a Muslim nation."

They did this because:

A. Israel surpresses the Palestinians
B. Jews control the entire world
C. The USA controls the entire world
D. Islam is a religion of peace
E. They don't like Mondays

An excerpt from www.stopislam.com

1400 years ago, a pirate named Muhammad -- who had been infamous for his serial raping and mindless killings -- claimed to have seen the Light of God. He began his *ministry* by slaughtering 800 men of the Beni Qoriega tribe of Jews in Medina. He then lead thousands of violent brainwashed believers to invade countries and slaughter more people including tens of thousands of Christians and later, Hindus.

After over four centuries of terrorism and Islamic Jihad, the desperate Pope finally called for the Crusades. A movement to stop this barbaric sect that held no considerations for human life. If it wasn't for this last act of desperation, all of Europe would have been turned into a repressed Islamic colony.

An excellant website for all who want to learn more about this "peacefull" religion.

What the Sudanese Christians need is weapons to defend themselves. Unfortunately, there is no country in the world that will help Christians. We already saw that in Lebanon. The world doesn't take notice until a people are able to defend themselves for awhile (look at the hutus for example. The only time the international community got involved was to ratify the gains by the butchers).
