#2 The Sudanese experience September 11 every day, when there is no trace of their martyrdom in your newspapers. Why? They suffer injustice and disease without any bitterness.

Clash of civilizations? You betcha. I am not willing to join the "I love suffering" crowd- Muslim, Christian, or anything else.

#3 Indeed, if there had been no resistance in the South, there would have been no peace treaty. Even then, such talk merely displays a self-pious attitude, attempting to cast weakness into virtue. One could imagine a Canadian talking like this.

It is well and good to believe that you are to suffer martyrdom, but one has to ask whether sitting on ones hands and letting your fellow brothers and sisters get killed is REALLY the best way to love them. For every command to love your enemy, there are three or four to love the bretheren. The New Testament is SILENT on military service. Personal Vengeance is categorically forbidden, but one looks in vain for a prohibition to act as an agent of duly constituted authority to enforce justice and peace. The bishop totally ignores Aquinas' work in this area.

The lack of real biblical knowledge all sorts of abuses like this. The Bishop should know better, but chooses not to know.
