however, I recall that there was no note of Osama bin Ladin's death made in my church after it happened.

What is it , you live in a religious compound 80mis out on the prairie outside Waco Texas ? And in your "church" there was no note whatsoever of this man's death that the US had spent over $1tril dollars seeking and went to war in two countries with 10's of 1000's dead ? This makes perfect sense , for you have no real contact with anything that transpires in this world if you only dream of living in the next ? That is a moral equiviliency .

There's something about your selective memory loss or personal estrangement to any current events that doesn't fit into a tidy boxed world or is inconvenient . The point being made here was people's perceptions , the act of celebration for the inflicting of wounds was justified in both mindsets half a world apart .

And yet your "church" took no note of this back then or now , which is just plain disingenuous . What i was making was not a moral equivilence but a simple observation , which as true in both cases that you haven't the will to comment on .

They celebrated in washington DC the death of a terrorist

And back on 9/11 other people saw the deaths here as reason to celebrate a blow made against the Great Satan
