I have a friend who is from Nigeria, he is also a catholic priest. He`s on holiday at the moment here in Scotland. On Saturday evening he came to visit with me. During the course of the conversation the subject of attacks on catholic churches came up. He told me that the government is going to offer priest firearms training and supply them with a gun. I asked if he was getting one and he is. He told me that the Muslim fundamentalists took a friend of his, another priest. Gouged his eyes out, threw him back into his car setting it alight and burning him to death.
He said if they tried to attack him, his family, his parishioners or his church he would use the gun on them. It`s terrible that men of the church are having to take up arms to defend themselves.

Indeed a terrible situation, but religion has been the root of many acts of violence throughout history.
I used to be with it, but then they changed what `it` was. Now, what I`m with isn`t it, and what`s `it` seems weird and scary

That is a terrible situation. I don`t understand with religion why people can`t just live and let live.
If your god is the one true god, then surely you can just be happy in the knowledge that your are going to heaven and everyone else isn`t because they don`t believe in your god? Why do people need to go and kill people to prove their point?
