I Wish We Had A President Who Could Lead Like Abdullah

[eagle1462010]

There is only one poster, aka troll that forgets about her, who went there to try and help the victims of the SYRIAN conflict................

Her death via the airstrikes are only propaganda from ISIS at this point...........Do you have information regarding this we don't know.............Or are you a spokesman for ISIS..............................

Unlike you, some of us don't forget her or the other 3 Americans who have died at the hand of ISIS.

Excuse me Dingle Berry,

WHO TRAINED AND FINANCED ISIS JIHADISTS IN SYRIA ?


Was it this guy?!?!?!?!?

.

Don't really give a fuck..............

I know they are killing our people................and slaughtering little girls.....................

They need to go...................I don't care what you think.

So long as you know that we are onto you and your propaganda.


.

.

I don't have a clue what your on............that's your problem and not mine...............

I'm here to praise Jordan for it's stance against ISIS................your here to say Jordan and America suck as ISIS kills and rapes little girls.................burns a man alive..........and crucifies Iraqi soldiers in Iraq.............

Again, I'll side with the ones fighting these animals..................You on the other hand......................who's side are you own............

As the other troll proudly displays the American Woman currently held by these scum................

AGAIN, whose side are you on....................I'LL CHOOSE AMERICA OVER ISIS.

Umm, what happens if both sides just happen to be wrong? That happens you know.

In a WAR, the loser doesn't get to write the history.

 

[PaintMyHouse]

Ah, what proof are you looking for, her head on a pike, what's left of it that is?

The only ones saying this is ISIS............DO you have insider information.

Well let's see here. The reason they took her is because she was worth something, and if she's dead she no longer is worth something because we don't pay up for dead girls, so, I'm thinking that since they can't really ask for a ransom for a hostage after they have announced that the hostage is dead that she's,............................................wait for it,.............................................um, dead.

Her fate was sealed the moment she got captured.

They don't have honor, and we have no reason to believe they would honor a deal after giving them money anyway....................

So the point is mute.

No, the point is, she's dead. And if she was dead as soon as they took her, and her odds were hardly good, then we should have killed her ourselves and her captors with her. Now that would send a don't fuck with us message eh? You down with that?

Nope..............because there is always a small chance of finding her and U.S. Spec OPS getting her out..................OF COURSE KILLING EVERY ISIS they find in the process..........

As long as there is that potential, then NO to your suggestion............and if they knew for sure where she was the ISIS holding her would already be worm food.

[mudwhistle]

People of character and passion simply make her green with envy...


I crack Myself up....

People like her elected Obama, so clearly she shares his lack of values.

Obama made of point of showing us during the prayer breakfast that he can't see evil for what it is. He compares Christianity with ISIS. For the most part what Christians have done throughout history is hurt sinner's feelings. What was the worse thing that could happen to you if you're a member of a Christian church? Be ex-communicated? With ISIS you get burned alive.

Bullshit! Christians have murdered millions of people throughout history.

Not in the name of Jesus. How many people have been murdered while zealots are screaming praise Allah compared to screaming Jesus???

Earlier this week our President made some comments at the national prayer breakfast. In the spirit of hospitality and inclusion he wished to address the recent horrifically evil actions by ISIS by saying that we Christians also have also perpetrated evil in the name of our religion. He gave three examples, two of which I want to make comments on here.

I want to first give this caveat that the purpose of this little essay is not to pick on the President. He simply presents a convenient opportunity for me to address many of our misconceptions about medieval Christian Civilization. I really don’t blame the President for thinking what he does more than I do anyone else. These misconceptions have been commonplace in our national educational system for quite some time.

Back to the point, the three examples President Obama gave do certainly point out that Christians are capable of evil. The evils of American slavery and reconstruction Jim Crow were, as President Obama said, “often justified in the name of Christ.” I want to acknowledge that fact, though that particular evil is not the focus of this essay.

As for the Inquisition, I’m not sure which Inquisition the President was referring to, but it is presumably the caricature we have received of people being tortured for their faith. That caricature reads more like a Jack Chick tract than historical reality. The old legends about the horrors of the Inquisition were largely exaggerated political propaganda. Twentieth century scholars have pushed back against that narrative arguing that the Spanish Inquisition (the particular Inquisition in question, presumably) was more humane than other contemporary trials and prisons. Yes, people did commit evil, but these events were isolated. The Inquisition (in general) was more a method of trying people for heresy than it was an excuse for torture, and the result of a guilty verdict in the vast majority of cases was excommunication not death. What you learned in school was wrong.

And as for the Crusades, yes atrocities were committed, but were they done in the name of Christ? We must acknowledge that evils were committed during the Crusades by evil, unscrupulous people. But we must also acknowledge that those acts were widely repented of and condemned, and that they were never the purpose of the Crusades. The purpose of the Crusades was to defend Christians who were being attacked by ever-encroaching Islamic armies. The Crusades were defensive wars in their conception. Yet, pick a war, any war, and you will find evil, unscrupulous people who get involved for their own wicked reasons and for their own greedy ends. Such is the nature of war, it attracts wicked people bent on destruction. Yet we do have a place in Christian theology for a just war, and at least on paper, the Crusades were just wars.

The president’s statement has also lead to a series of comments and references to the Middle Ages all over the internet and in various news sources. So I want to take the opportunity to dispel a few myths about the medieval period.

1. Medieval Christian civilization was not monolithic – We have this picture of the Middle Ages as a singular culture presided over by the pope and various kings and emperors. This simply was not the case. Europe in the medieval period was made up of a group of diverse cultures, and they didn’t always agree or get along. In the church there were also diverse practices and theologies during the medieval period. So we can’t just lump them all in together.

2. Medieval Christian civilization was not barbaric – Many of us have been to the medieval torture museums. We have this idea that Europe during the medieval period was filled with rustic, barbarous peoples for whom torture was their preferred form of entertainment. We have a picture of disease, famine, wars, tortures, and ignorant people who shunned science and technology in favor of rituals, mysticisms, and literal interpretations of the Bible. Well, again, what you learned in school and in other venues was wrong. The medieval torture museums are modern fabrications. These images we have of the middle ages are inventions of the modern world set to disparage a Christian civilization. As I mentioned above, our notions of the Inquisition and the Crusades are caricatures and fabrications. Yes there were evils, yes there was ignorance, but not any more than any other period of time or any other culture. In fact they were much less. The medieval Europeans did quite a good job with the resources and knowledge they had.

3. Medieval Christian civilization was a work in progress – We tend to judge medieval Europe based on modern standards. But this is not fair. In the early to mid-Middle Ages, the cultures represented were only a short time removed from uncultured and unlettered paganism. We in the modern West have had the benefit of 2,000 years of Christian culture to help us to grow and mature. Yes atrocities were committed. Yes, greedy and unscrupulous people did bad things. But we shouldn’t judge early medieval Europe on our modern standards any more than we should try a child as an adult in a court of law.

4. Medieval Christian civilization was not “Dark” – We’ve all heard of the “Dark Ages.” In my Ancient and Medieval Church History class at Covenant Seminary I tell my students that any of them who refers to the medieval period as the “Dark Ages” will receive an automatic F. I’ve yet to have anyone do that. You see, this myth of the Dark Ages was perpetrated by an anti-Christian Enlightenment culture that wanted to disparage the Christian Civilization that was formed during the medieval period. It is in no way true that people in medieval Europe were uneducated, ignorant, or backward. The medievals created the educational systems and the methods that we still use today. They took the treasure of ancient Greek and Roman education and culture and Christianized it for use in the Christian academies of Europe. Charlemagne (yes him) in his General Admonition of 789 mandated that schools (yes schools) be created in every parish and monastery for the education (yes education) of children in reading, writing, and math. He also mandated that parish pastors work to educate (there’s that word again) all the people (yes all, men, women, and children of all classes) in the Christian liturgy and in the content of their faith so that they could be fruitful citizens. The medieval period was all about education, learning, and discovery. What you learned in school was wrong.

Medieval Christian civilization was a mixed bag, as is any society and culture. But my contention is that medieval Christianity was more good than bad, more light than dark, and when judged in light of the tools they had and the progress they made, there is much to give thanks for the foundation they laid for us.

What You Learned About the Middle Ages Was Wrong Theopolis Institute​

Yes, in the name of Christianity, you moron. They justified slavery based on text in the Bible. They believed they were superior human beings and that blacks were subhuman. They believed that because black Africans were not Christian, they were heathens and not worthy of life except to serve the Christians. How ignorant are you anyway? Did you skip school, or do you just have selective memory?

The Bible is the story of the people of Israel. The New Testiment is the story of the Messiah which is what Christianity is based on. I think you need to quit preaching and learn the difference. There is nothing in Jesus teachings that says you can take slaves against their will or kill in the name of God.

Maybe if you people who choose to use the Bible as a reference would crack one once in awhile you'd know this.

You want to take the word of a compulsive liar like Obama, who said that George Washington made beer in the White House, even though George Washington never lived in the White House because it wasn't even built then.

I'm not in charge now or then...................

You would have not liked what I'd have done after 9/11.........I wouldn't have done what Bush did...........I'd have taken the gloves off...........I would not have fought a Politically correct War..............I would not have been there to build nations out of the rubble...........................

It would be fought as a WAR...............not another Police Action............

War against who? Just one guy was pretty much responsible for 9/11. Who were you going to go to war with, bin Laden?

I'd have put bin Laden's head on a pike, in front of the White House. I would not have gone to war with a nation that had nothing to do with it, and I would have spared no expense to get him. As a nation you have to be able to kill your enemies, but first you have to figure out who they actually are, something we don't do.

Easy to say that..................Would you have invaded Pakistan to get him...............would you have entered Afghanistan to do so..............and how many troops would you have sent into the mission......................

If the Taliban protected him, would you have hit them too.............would you have hit his minions the AL Quada in places like Sudan..............

Or would you think it's a fair trade after ONE MAN Osama is finally killed................and after you killed him would the War with Radical Islam be over.

No country needed to be invaded to get bin Laden. And I'd have used whatever it took and let as many American soldiers die in the process as required until I had him.
