A Muslim gunman saw a jesuit priest named Fr. Frans van der Lugt in the Syrian city of Homs, opened fire on him and shot him to death. He was killed in the Bustan al-Diwan neighbourhood.
Fr Frans van der Lugt
He was trapped in the city, alongside numerous other Christians and Muslims, who were all suffering of mass starvation. He lived in Syria for fifty years, and refused to leave his flock. Just a few months before he was murdered, he stated:
As long as there is one person from our community left here, I will stay with them.
Fr. Frans van der Lugt was not a hireling, who flees as soon as the wolves come, but a shepherd who dies for his sheep.
The killer actually first tried to kidnap him, and when he refused to go, the killer made him sit in a chair and shot him twice in the head in front of other Christians. The priest was fairly popular with most of the local Muslims, btw.
We need to pull back out of barbarian countries then bomb them back to the Stone Age. Before that we need to deport the barbarians we let into civilized nations.
Why Doesn’t the Christian nations see the need for the Crusades. It is as plain, no plainer, than it was during the Middle Ages.
One of John McCain buddies ?
What "Christian nations"? Britain? France? Spain?
America????
Eek ...
Poland, maybe. I think the Poles may qualify as a Christian nation. They may be more concerned with the lunatic next door ...
I am waiting on un ambassador Samantha Power to make a comment against the terrorists. She’s so backwards she blames the Syrian government for this instead of the terrorists.
If those “muzzies” liked this guy, what did THEY do in reprisal? Can’t have it both ways.
I expect your will someday see this same thing happening right here in America.
Why Doesn’t the Christian nations see the need for the Crusades.
In this case, as in many, we’re fighting on the wrong side. Our government is sponsoring terrorists.
Ok. Replace the word Christian with civilized(I think I’m over my head here) and barbarian with Muslim.
I am looking forward toward January 2017. But you are right. We are currently on the wrong side in most endeavors.
A Man for Others
And there’s the problem ... whether the enemy is mohammedans or barbarians generally, the formerly Christian West has become weak (mentally and spiritually). The West is becoming uncivilized, surrendering to tribalism and hedonism within. It has largely ceased to be Christian, and has lost confidence in itself. A confidently civilized, mentally alert, spiritually strong, Christian West would not be exemplified by President Barack Hussein 0bama ...
It’s impossible for me to express the deep disgust I have for the belief system that cultivates, encourages and praises the ultra-barbaric behavior that is so commonplace in Islam. To call them pigs is such an understatement that it’s hardly worth saying. Compared to the enormity if their brutishness, the term pig is a semantic failure. But I don’t know what to call them. Words fail me.
Bloody savages!
Fr. Frans van der Lugt, ora pro nobis. A true martyr.
Christians put up with this abuse from Muslims for 400 years before deciding to fight back last time.
What’s it going to take this time?
