...the widow of a martyred Christian told reporters she did not want revenge against the Muslims who killed her husband and two others,...

While I admire her faith, this kind of thinking will destroy Christianity. Muslim animals know that Christians must 'turn the other cheek' according to Christ's teachings.

Sorry, when a religion calls me and my family infidels, and threaten to kill or convert us, my Christian love ends.

Christians must ‘turn the other cheek’ when slapped. Being slapped in the face is an insult, not attempted murder.

Nowhere does the Bible say that we are obligated not to defend ourselves or others against life-threatening attack.

Nor does it say that those who commit crimes should not suffer the appropriate penalty.

Well if the muslims think that, then they have been misled because for the past 16 years, Christians in the U.S. armed forces have been handing the muslims their asses. LOL

NOTHING will EVER destroy Christianity. EVER!

Then what you have is a perversion of true Christianity. Don't blame me, I didn't say it first.

No, resist beforehand, and forgive afterward.

Forgiveness is for the victim and God to proffer. It is not for us left behind.

Since in this case the victim is dead and can’t do so, it’s up to God, if He wants to.
