Gao,

Well, as you know I am not Christian (I am not saying that is either good or bad) and therefore don't believe in redemption through Christ.

that I said, I never implied that they are bigger martyrs than Jesus. I would not desire to be that disrespectful to my many Christian friends. Feel free to ask Dan if I would ever intentionally do that.

What I did say was that a case could be made that the Kennedy's were indeed martyrs. I spoke of the possibility, but never made any comparisons to Jesus. If I remember correctly, the only comparisons I made were to MLK and Medgar Evers. there might have been one or two other comparisons, but it was more in that mode, and not in a religious vein.

I spoke of Jesus earlier today, but as I explained to Dan(and apologized for any possible unintentional insulting aspect) that was only to show that TD's example of the reason for the kennedy assasnation could be taken to an exrtreme to include even the case of Jesus.
