Pope condemns Christian murders in Pakistan...

Pope Benedict XVI has condemned the 'senseless attack' in Pakistan in which seven Christians were burned alive. 

Hundreds of Muslims torched and looted Christian homes in Gorja. A man, a woman and four children were burned to death in their house, and two other men were shot dead by the rioters.

The killings began after false rumours that the Koran had been defaced spread through a city in Pakistan.

Some 40 homes were burned down in total. More + images...

  1. Just recently, JULY 29, 2009, I had published my article "WHO IS? ON FIRST!" http://tombstone001.blogspot.com/2009/07/who-is-on-first.html, Which may also be considered a follow up to my article, "Beyond a Stupid God and the Immortal Man, http://tombstone001.blogspot.com/2006/09/beyond-stupid-god-and-immortal-man.html
    of September, 5, 2006, both articles deal with falsehoods of peoples beliefs in their own salvation at the expense of religious freedom and equality. It is not to defend any faith, and most certainly to excuse or make light of the obnoxious acts of murder committed in the name of any God, whosoever. It must, however, be expected of Muslim and all other religious and political authorities to speak out loud and even in religious terms against religious violence. We, the Humanity, must demand of our own political and religious leaders leaders to declare an end to religious violence and a full and honest accounting for such deeds and full prosecutions of the perpetrators.
