I wonder what would happen if “radical” Christians blew people up at various locations around the world. If “radical” Christian groups operated in special “cells” in various countries, plotting to assasinate particular leaders, plant bombs, launch various attacks on embassies, etc.
I wonder what would become of this group, if it called itself Christian ... I wonder what the world would think of all Christians if this were the case.
First off: I emphatically do **NOT** advocate vigilante violence by individuals. Biblically speaking, only the state has the right to execute people, and even then, only after a proper trial of the evidence.
Having said that, I read recently that Iran has a lower percentage of its people attending religious services (virtually all Muslims) than the United States. Iran is formally declared Islamic republic in which a religious minority runs the country. America is a nation in which our irreligious and atheist minority runs much of the highest levels of academia and government, and even when conservative Christians are a clear majority, we have to kowtow to the secularists on the Supreme Court.
What's wrong with this picture?
Muslims have good reason to believe they must be far more committed to their faith than Christians if Muslims can take over and control the government while Christians cannot — even when we are in the majority, as we are in much of the South and some other parts of the United States when evangelical Protestant and conservative Catholic voters are combined.
