#1 Christian for Muslim exchange a nice idea, but watch for the Muslims "see the light" & declare themselves converted.

#2 I don't know, Anguper Hupomosing9418. Apostacy means death, and how are the members of the muttawa to differentiate between true conversion and taqqiyah?

#3 "Yeah, where's your Messiah now, ~~Flanders~~ Palestinians?"

#10 Imagine if any "Christian" government anywhere - is there such a thing? - demanded the same of its local Orcs.

Pope Benedict: As the closest thing Christendom has to a leader I beg of you - as a devout Protestant, I beg of you - for the love of everything we have made, of everything we cherish and of everything holy... for the love of God call for a Crusade. Do not let this stand. Enough.

#13 " Sheikh Abu Saqer, leader of the group Jihadia Salafiya"

this is Haniyahs problem. Even if we wants to restrain shit like this, for PR purposes, he doesnt control every Islamist loon in Gaza. Can he afford to crack down on them, even if he has the sense to do so?

#14 We should warn them to convert to democracy and civil rights. Otherwise, they are going to achieve room temperature real quick.

Others here have called for embracing Muslims and trying to get them to convert away from Islam. I truly must wonder if they have fully considered the concept of taqiyya and all that it implies. While Benedict has shown some spine where his predecessors most definitely did not, more than that is now required.

Christianity again faces its oldest and most voracious foe. While this assault has been ongoing for several centuries, at no time has it ever approached the scale of threat we now see. Assisted by the media and large numbers of both misguided and ill-intentioned liberals alike, the Church of Christ must finally reconsider its own doctrine of acceptance.

Christians may well need to face up to the fact that there are some who simply cannot be salvaged or rescued from their own intellectual wreckage. As someone who believes in the perfectability of man's spirit, this is a difficult notion to embrace. Yet, we are confronted with a cult whose murderous intentions simply knows no bounds.

Death of others, death of self, death of children, death, death and more glorious death. There are limits to what can be tolerated and this is certainly one of them. Being fixated upon destruction of mind, body and soul is something that cannot be ignored as a passing fad.

Pope Benedict seems to be doing this. He has the ultimate bully pulpit. His flock is in dire peril. If there is a God, His work on this earth is threatened with total annihilation by a rapacious enemy. Much like how Muslim silence has transcended consent and become a lie, so has Christian denial of the danger that Islam poses. Either Christianity embraces the sin of willful suicide or gets up on their hind legs and rallies against its most dire foe. All other options have left the ~~building~~ cathedral.

#16 Zenster, Christianity's oldest foe has been in the field far longer than Islam.

Christians believe that no one is beyond God's mercy, not even the hippenest, hoppinest imam in Peshawar. The Judeo-Christian ethos is one of love and mercy and there is no room innit for writing out any group of people, no matter how vicious or cruel they are. We love life and despite our sinful natures, we do (or should do) our best to save lives. The Cathechism of the Catholic Church describes in detail the justifications for the use of force in the defense of life - for nation-states as well as individuals.

Roman Catholicism is not a pacifist faith.

#17 The Judeo-Christian ethos is one of love and mercy and there is no room innit for writing out any group of people, no matter how vicious or cruel they are.

I realize this and it absolves Christianity of a host of sins committed earlier in its history. That said, Christians and members of other faiths need to get on the same page about dealing with the threat of Muslim violence. Islam is not going to magically renounce its quest for global domination all by itself. The outside world will have to put a gun to the ummah's collective head and have the will to pull the trigger if cooperation is not forthcoming. There is no other form of persuasion that holds the least promise. Were it not for weapons of mass destruction there might be time to see if Islam's own wickedness might neutralize itself. However, no such luxury exists. Wishing things were otherwise merely plays into Islam's hands. It is beyond difficult to envisage anything but overwhelming force being required to assure a positive outcome.
