Riot police beat back clergy fighting over Christmas cleaning of Church of Nativity, but no-one was arrested as they are all 'men of God' http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2079328/Priests-brawl-Bethlehems-Church-Nativity-clergy-fight-Christmas-cleaning.html |

They learnt this behaviour from Hamas !! |

And it was the palestinian law enforcement personnel that quell the fire at the manger. |

The swords purchased some 2K years ago are now handy among the peaceful christian leaders, turning the other cheek among themselves. |

^^^^ Did you not hear, Hamas taught them this terrible behaviour. By the way, was any bomb lobbed within the vicinity , was anyone killed , was there a massacre of children and women. |
Re: Priests-brawl-bethlehems-church-nativity-clergy-fight-christmas-cleaning by Sweetnecta: 10:15pm On Dec 28, 2011 |
^^ I am sure some ears were cut off. You saw them in full regalia throwing things? Even brooms? If they took from Hamas after you said Jesus taught them, I now see where he will lead you to all things, including how to raise cane is applicable. When shall we know he will correct you, glorify me, teach you and remind you of all that i truly said instead of the lies lob on me by mr. paul? |

frosbel:^ Not true at all. This sort of behavior has always been there. You mustn't make everything seem as if its the Muslims' fault. |
Re: Priests-brawl-bethlehems-church-nativity-clergy-fight-christmas-cleaning by LagosShia: 10:20pm On Dec 28, 2011 |
frosbel: Hamas has not being existing for more than 30 years. Jesus (as) some 2000 years ago was the first man recorded to have entered a place of worship in Palestine where he beat and chased people away. |
Re: Priests-brawl-bethlehems-church-nativity-clergy-fight-christmas-cleaning by aletheia(m): 10:25pm On Dec 28, 2011 |
@Frosbel: from the quoted article. . . It was a trivial problem that , occurs every year,' said police Lieutenant-Colonel Khaled al-Tamimi about today's clash.So you see that Muslims are not different from other religious people when it comes to violence. |
Re: Priests-brawl-bethlehems-church-nativity-clergy-fight-christmas-cleaning by Nobody: 10:34pm On Dec 28, 2011 |
^^^^ And by implication therefore , this equates to Christian terror , right Better to battle with brooms, sticks and chains than Bombs and Axes. This is not to excuse the deplorable behaviour of these so called 'Christians' , rather it is to put things into perspective. |
Re: Priests-brawl-bethlehems-church-nativity-clergy-fight-christmas-cleaning by LagosShia: 10:59pm On Dec 28, 2011 |
frosbel: i see!just like when you comment on boko haram is also to put things into perspective!!!corrupt mind you are!!! but your "lord and saviour" started with asking his disciples to even go na.ked selling their clothes to buy swords!!! |
Re: Priests-brawl-bethlehems-church-nativity-clergy-fight-christmas-cleaning by Nobody: 11:07pm On Dec 28, 2011 |
^^^ I keep telling you to go and join your Boko Haram brothers |
Re: Priests-brawl-bethlehems-church-nativity-clergy-fight-christmas-cleaning by aletheia(m): 11:08pm On Dec 28, 2011 |
frosbel:^ "Christian terror" also exists. Ask the inhabitants of Kuru Karama in Plateau state. Ask the Jews and Muslims massacred in Jerusalem by the "Christian Crusaders". Ask the "Catholic" IRA versus the "Protestant" Ulster Unionists. In any case my exact words were: aletheia: Are you trying to suggest that somehow the violent behavior of these monks is more acceptable because it is not "Christian terror". The truth is that these men are ready to shed blood and kill in order to defend their idolatrous turfs as history repeatedly shows. Stop excusing their reprehensible and un-Christlike behavior. And oh yes your initial statement. . . frosbel:. . .is untrue. Be gracious enough to accept so and stop trying to divert the issue from that. |

"Christian terror" also exists. Ask the inhabitants of Kuru Karama in Plateau state. Ask the Jews and Muslims massacred in Jerusalem by the "Christian Crusaders". Ask the "Catholic" IRA versus the "Protestant" Ulster Unionists. You dig back into history , hundreds of years back to the crusades, an army that was certainly not Christian in act or word, and use this as an example of Christian terror. Shocking !!!!!! You seem to be muddling up the definition of Christianity, you know, the one that Jesus Christ started with the false church. The crusaders were not Christians, as simple as ABC. And if you had read my comments on the Jos crisis, I was against the attacks on the Fulani Herdsmen and their families and still am. Violence is not justified in these circumstances. They learnt this behaviour from Hamas !! This was a Joke ! Are you trying to suggest that somehow the violent behavior of these monks is more acceptable because it is not "Christian terror". Looks like you missed my last comment condemning this deplorable behaviour !! |

ABC simplicity is bad counting of thousands of years crusaders/crusade, especially when Islam under Muhammad is only 1400 years old. And no one born the christians to even make a move in the lifetime of Ali ibn Abi Talib [ra], decades after Muhammad [as]. I see your thousands of years. Yea. Good counting. All in a day's joke. UI. Diploma recall. Today, the crusaders are not christians. Today the spanish conquistadors are not christians. Today the missionaries who committed atrocities are not christians. Today, the orthodox christian clergies fighting in the church are not christians. Heck. Who is a christian, today? Anyone with you, Frosbel, even mrs? You are a lone wolf now, unable to catch any sheep. Or maybe you are a lone sheep, easy catch for even a jackal. |
Re: Priests-brawl-bethlehems-church-nativity-clergy-fight-christmas-cleaning by Nobody: 11:35pm On Dec 28, 2011 |
^^^ Go back upwards, changed to hundreds of years. No point trying to explain to you what true Christianity is. You are a lone wolf now, unable to catch any sheep. Or maybe you are a lone sheep, easy catch for even a jackal. I will rather be a lone wolf and on the side of truth, than with the crowd and on the side of error You entertainment me, especially on my holidays , glad to see you are back bro. |
Re: Priests-brawl-bethlehems-church-nativity-clergy-fight-christmas-cleaning by Sweetnecta: 11:40pm On Dec 28, 2011 |
Wolf is a horrible animal. They are scavengers. You entertain me, even more. I have loads of stories to tell my spouse; you and some people like you. We will have a few laughs on you. |

frosbel:^I made allusion to events as recent as a few years back as well. . .I even forgot to add Serbian atrocities in Bosnia. The perpetrators all called themselves Christians and believed that they were fighting for God. You say they are not Christian. I hope the irony of this situation does not escape you. Just as you claim that these are not Christian; even similarly do some Muslims claim that Boko Haram and co are not Muslims. And I am not aware that "Christianity" has a definition. frosbel:Good for you. It however does not change the fact that religious people, whether "Christian", "Muslim", "Buddhist" or whatever can be prone to violence unless saved by Jesus. frosbel:Ok. . .hope others see it so. |

I hope the irony of this situation does not escape you. Just as you claim that these are not Christian; even similarly do some Muslims claim that Boko Haram and co are not Muslims. The Quran explicitly calls for violence, a true Muslim will act it out to the letter. The Bible calls for peace and Love , a true Christian will act it out to the letter. Remember that saying, “ If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it probably is a duck. ” Put things into the right perspective. |
