Arch Bishop's Discomfort over Bin Laden!

David P

I find it incredible, that a Religious Leader (of any faith) could possibly feel 'uncomfortable' about the extermination of Evil? Bin Laden and his terrorists didn't care whether they murdered anyone of any faith! He chose to subvert and incite young men and women to believe that 'a God' would condone anyone who chose to murder by any means, or commit suicide in order to bully the world to live their way, and their way only. To do so, without any regard to who they kill for one purpose only - to gain publicity for a cause!

He didn't care that his victims or the victims of those he fooled into murdering for his sick 'cause' were unarmed - how could a baby, child, office worker etc be armed or be by any other means any threat to anyone? There is no doubt that if he was armed, could have got a weapon or in anyway have killed those tasked with bringing his evil reign to an end, he would have done!

No wonder the Christian church have so few followers these days when their leader has not got the guts to stand up for what he is supposed to believe in - (triumph of good over evil) shame on him. That man gave away his right to justice when he signed his pact with the devil.

It is of course, a shame that such a conflict must be fought with bullets instead of dialogue and engagement. Whilst people like Bin Laden are impossible to engage as they have completely closed and selfish minds, it might at least be possible to make the people of this Earth start to look at themselves, their neighbours and think how they might one day grow up, become civilised and start to foster kindness instead of hatred.

I think the Arch Bishop should resign.
