Thousands of Islamic Radicals running around, organizing and effectively targeting and killing us gives us the right and obligation to call them Islamic terrorists...simply because there are occasional crack pots who do the same does not mean there is not a prenicious and unique danger to organized radical, murderous Islam (peace loving Muslims excepted, obviously).
I have no problem calling an individual a terrorist when they commit acts of terrorism. To lump in more than one billion people with them because of the religion they practice or where they were born is preposterous and borders on racism.
Now, by all means, let's wipe those that attack us off the face of the Earth, but let's do it in a way that is moral, and meets with our values as a nation. We must uphold the constitution when we do it. Otherwise, we have become terrorists ourselves.
Equating Mc Viegh with a billion strong, organized religion which is causing havoc throughout the world is tortured logic, at best....
Where did I equate McVeigh with Islam? I'm pretty sure my comment was in direct rebuttal to someone saying that Lutherans didn't do this kind of stuff. Now, I assumed that by Lutheran, that person meant christian in general. McVeigh was a catholic. Rudolph belonged to the christian identity movement.
A few posts later, someone sarcastically stated they didn't know those guys were Lutheran. So, just to satisfy them, I went out and found a link to a book that links the German Protestant Church (Lutherans) to the Third Reich. I think I fairly effectively made my point that Lutherans, and good christian folk, do indeed "blow $hit up."
