I am a Catholic and know that Jesus tells us to "forgive." But maybe this guy ought to be more interested in the "Justice and Peace" that needs to be secured for the little boys and girls put upon by his brother priests! Even Jesus cleared out the temple!

Amen. We are clearing the temple in Iraq so-to-speak. (And, there is a considerable difference between rift-raft that Christ cleared out of the temple and what we are clearing out of Iraq.)

Our actions are not incongruous with forgiveness. With this warped attitude towards forgiveness innocence shall never be protected. I believe Christ would have something GOOD to say about our soldiers, airmen and sailors giving their lives to protect innocence. (Brief aside – the root of the word Good is God)

I have complete confidence that one day our “good” actions will ultimately clear the Temple mount and the Temple will be rebuilt. (note: I do not normally think in these terms as we wage war on terrorism, but I do read the Bible every GD day.)
