First of all, thank-you for your service to the USA.
Second, you must have surprised by seeing all those skulls of those Christian martyrs stacked up on top of each other.
Still the Christian population goes up and up.
It’s good the hear that a more sane religion is moving into the islamo regions. Hopefully, the muzzies that use deadly force to try and stop it are eliminated quickly.
Increasing Christian numbers should help to stunt the growth of islamowhacks. A good trait of Christianity is that one is not required to become a follower under threat of death.
Yes, it was awe-inspiring and gruesome at once. That those men all died rather than give up on Jesus Christ says a lot. I believe each gained his place in Heaven that day.
I was told about it before going in the Cathedral, so knew it would be so, but still, seeing it was something.
Of course they are men. Every sinner is a man, a part of mankind. He was created for God's glory. He is encumbered by a corrupted nature and the chains of concupiscence. He needs what you need, and what I need, too: to know Christ, to receive salvation and to follow His way: to love what He loves, and hate what He hates.
Did you not read the part about God hates a lying tongue?
Did you miss the part about, while we were yet His enemies, Christ died for us?
Praise God for these martyrs of Otranto, whose blood is more powerful than our prating online palaver.
