Quote from Abbot Pastor:

If someone does evil to you, you should do good to him, so that by your good work you may drive out his malice.

It's clear that this friday those going to the mosk will need all the protection they can get.

On a personnal note I find really SAINT to give your own body has a shield so that someone else could pray... humbling... and really touching...

(P.S. I hope that you didn't miss the G.S. on the jacket of the guy in picture

Quote from Rabbi Michael Lerner:

Ever since the victory over the dictator of Tunisia and the subsequent uprising in Egypt, my email has been flooded with messages from Jews around the world hoping and praying for the victory of the Egyptian people over their cruel Mubarak regime.

Though a small segment of Jews have responded to right-wing voices from Israel that lament the change and fear that a democratic government would bring to power fundamentalist extremists who wish to destroy Israel and who would abrogate the hard-earned treaty that has kept the peace between Egypt and Israel for the last 30 years, the majority of Jews are more excited and hopeful than worried.

...

It is this recognition that leads many Jews to join with the rest of the world's peoples in celebrating the uprising, in praying that it does not become manipulated by the old regime into paths that too quickly divert the hopes for a brand new kind of order into politics and economics as usual, or into extremist attempts to switch the anger from domestic elites who have been the source of Egyptian oppression onto Jews or Israel which have not been responsible for the suffering of the Egyptian people.

We hope that Egyptians will hear the news that they have strong support from many in the Jewish world. We are not waffling like Obama - we want the overthrow of Mubarak, the freeing of all political prisoners, the redistribution of wealth in a fair way, trials for those who perpetrated torture and other forms of injustice, and the democratisation of all aspects of Egyptian life.

AMEN

Wow! Heart warming. On a seperate not, the dictator of Egypt sent his hacing thugs to shut Aljazeera websites to prevent the truth from reaching the world.

It's extremely demeaning and especially unhelpful let alone selfish, to be on your knees, with your hands clasped in prayer, whilst others are fighting for your freedom.

They'll probably return the favor during Christmas & Easter. Plus it demonstrates comaraderie.

There's nothing demeaning about worshiping your God. Well, you wouldn't know, would you.

It demonstrates an act of cringing submissiveness to an imaginary dictator, whilst others are fighting to be free of a dictator.

Comrades in childish superstition is something you'll probably know about.

Those Christians defending muslims in Egypt?

One day, they will be a muslim too. So in essence they are protecting their own kind in a way.

See documentary below. And convert now before it is too late.

Them damn Muslims! So, according to you, these Christians who lived in Egypt for thousands of years alongside their Muslim brother will convert one day? If so, what day and what is the exact time please?

It is. I was in the Marines for six years, trained to protect the freedoms jackasses like you take for granted.
