Obama At National Prayer Breakfast: "People Committed Terrible Deeds In The Name of Christ"
 "At the National Prayer Breakfast, President Obama reminded attendees that violence rooted in religion isnât exclusive to Islam, but has been carried out by Christians as well.Obama said that even though religion is a source for good around the world, there will always be people willing to âhijack religion for their own murderous ends.â âUnless we get on our high horse and think this is unique to some other place, remember that during the Crusades and the Inquisition, people committed terrible deeds in the name of Christ,â Obama said. âIn our home country, slavery and Jim Crow all too often was justified in the name of Christ.â Obama also denounced Islamic State terrorists for professing to stand up for Islam when they were actually âbetraying it.â 'We see ISIL, a brutal vicious death cult that in the name of religion carries out unspeakable acts of barbarism,â he said criticizing them for âclaiming the mantle of religious authority for such actions.'" Aside of "This guy is a moral-equivalency a$$hat.", words fail. Posted by: Hupineger Glomomp0036 2015-02-06 |
