Gunmen with ``bags of guns and bullets'' stormed into a Christian church in Pakistan and sprayed the congregation with gunfire, killing the minister and 15 others, police and survivors said.

ABC/CBS/NBC/CNN/MSNBC/REUTERS/AP reporting no Afghan civilian casualties - all is OK.

This atrocity is being under-reported by most of the media who choose instead to report on the civilians accidently killed by the United States. Shades of Vietnam reporting are starting to appear.

What do you expect from the Satan controlled media?

"Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven." Matthew 5:10

"In Britain, Archbishop of Canterbury George Carey, spiritual leader of the Church of England, condemned the killings and said, ``Christian minorities in many parts of the world sometimes feel beleaguered and under pressure, but I call upon everyone to recognise that this is not a conflict between Christianity and Islam.''

Tragically the Archbishop is just another PC useful idiot.

What an idiotic statement. That was precisely what this attack was all about.

Interesting to note : our local ( Gannett ) newspaper published this " below the fold "-with story on an inside page. Above the fold ? The accidental killing of 13 civilians by American bombs-story on page 1.

``Whenever something happens with America, they attack Christian churches,''

Expect to see the peacenicks out in support of Anti-Christionism in America, even worse than they did under Clinton.
Stupid liberals. No brains at all. Empty space.
I think the A-rabs see "political correctness via liberalism" as our form of Christianity, but it's just the opposite.
No wonder the A-rabs are confused about who the good guy and who the bad guy is.
We should give them about 10 liberals to talk to, and 10 Christians to talk to. If this were to happen, the targets would no longer be the Christian churches.

President Bush needs to mention this tragic crime. The Pope is right. All we can do now is pray for the victims families.

PS...The left wing has always gone after Christians. "NO GOD ALLOWED HERE" signs above the school doors.
Hillary took large sums of money from the terrorist group to become senator, and was photographed kissing Mrs. Arafat!.
Bill Clinton favored Palistine.
We were being set up by the "political correctness "left for the last eight years.
After all, it is the lefts idea to "share the wealth of the world."

Has there been a single Muslim anywhere in the world that has condemned this massacre?

I doubt it.

Nor liberal politician. Not a word from Bill or Hillary. They're always in front of the camera. Where are they?

Christians don't count in the body count..Islam means peace you know?

To report this would disrupt the official duties of the U S Dept of Propaganda

Yes...George Carey was the guy who sent Clinton a congratulatory letter when he vetoed a partial-birth abortion ban. He's a disgrace to the Anglican Communion and an embarrassment to Christendom as a whole.

Tell me again why it is that concealed weapons should be banned in houses of worship. I understand that lots of people think such reasoning is so elementary and obvious on its face that it shouldn't have to be explained; but I'm just dense enough not to get it, I guess.

No, you're completely wrong, they weren't white, they were Pakistani, they weren't all male but they were Christians.
