Franklin Graham comments on the beheading of 21 Coptic Christians

From here:

The militant Islamic terrorist group ISIS has released a video called A MESSAGE SIGNED WITH BLOOD TO THE NATION OF THE CROSS showing the beheadings of 21 Egyptian Christians who had been kidnapped in Libya. Can you imagine the outcry if 21 Muslims had been beheaded by Christians? Where is the universal condemnation by Muslim leaders around the world? As we mourn with the families of those 21 martyrs, we’d better take this warning seriously as these acts of terror will only spread throughout Europe and the United States. If this concerns you like it does me, share this. The storm is coming.

He is correct, of course; Christian leaders would have unanimously denounced such an evil act by Christians. As it is, since the Archbishop of Canterbury has no contemporary Christian barbarity over which to lament, he is forced to confine himself to wringing his hands over the bombing of Dresden during the Second World War.

Meanwhile, ISIS redoubled its efforts to convince us that Islam is a religion of peace by burning to death 45 people in Iraq.

  1. Kurdish persons beheaded ISIS persons in the New this morning, Tues Feb 17

    Some commentator from Amnesty mentioned, “This is a [WAR CRIME]….”, which it is but

    with -[ALL OF THE CHRISTIAN BEHEADINGS GOING ON]- I don’t hear anybody mention

    that this also is [A WAR CRIME] ?

    Who’s side is the media on?

    Are they trying to cover themselves?

    Afraid about saying something that is not politically correct?

    Maybe self serving to avoid legal fees from being sued costing them money and maybe even their job?

  2. David and his straw man arguments….

    A simply search shows that the Archbishop of Canterbury condemned the attacks. He actually said this yesterday before Franklin even issued his press release. I don’t think that anyone would think that this is less than a terrible event…

  3. …and such problems beset Christendom as well. The difference is that, when Christains engage in such behaviour they do so in violation of the Scriptures; when Muslims engage in that behavior, they do so in accordance with the Koran.
