Drudge Report just put up the headline “ISIS slaughters 300 Christian Captives”

The BBC is reporting these people, some of them, were of a “mixed religion” of oral tradition and using the Koran and Bible. So I don’t know what that is about.

We will have to see what the details of this story turn out to be.

You can research the Yazidis. They’re an odd combination of religious traditions, with Zorozastrianism probably the most important component.

One name of their preeminent demigod is Shaytan, which obviously doesn’t go over well with Muslim or Christian neighbors.
