Then you agree with the African brand of Christianity? A yes or no will do. You can add in your rant if you want, but don't weasel out of answering the question.

BTW, you do understand that what you call Christianity is a creation of the High Priest of Mithra, don't you? Why don't you study the life and character of Constantin first to understand what you are defending. Hint [1], what does the inscription on Constantin's coins say? Hint[2] what monuments did he raise after he "saw the light?"

Christian militants seize teen girls in raid



Kampala - Rebels of the Lord's Resistance Army (LRA) early on Monday attacked a displaced people's camp in northern Uganda and abducted six teenage girls, a military spokesperson said.

The raiders entered the Pabo camp, the largest in Gulu district, during the night after engaging a dozen soldiers stationed there in a firefight, army spokesperson Lieutenant Paddy Ankunda said.

The rebels also looted several shops near the camp, but no one was hurt during the attack, he said.

The chairman of the local council, Christopher Ojera, said by telephone from Gulu that the rebels had taken advantage of a reduced military presence at the camp.

The camp shelters about 63 000 of an estimated 500 000 people displaced by the unrest in northern Uganda, which began 16 years ago.

The LRA was set up in 1988 by former Roman Catholic catechist Joseph Kony with the declared aim of overthrowing President Yoweri Museveni's government, which it accused of marginalising northern Uganda, and replacing it with a regime based on the Bible's Ten Commandments.

The rebels' main method of recruitment is by abduction, and the group is estimated to have abducted at least 10 000 children and young people in the last six years alone. - Sapa-AFP

Nigerian Oil Militants Threaten to Attack Muslims "In Defence of Christianity"

April 16, 2013 4:23 AM






The latest terrorist threats to come out of Nigeria aren't being propagated by Boko Haram, the militant Islamist group bent on eradicating Christianity (and other Western influences). Instead, the threats from the Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta (MEND) are being made "in defence of Christianity."

MEND, a militant group operating out of the country's oil-rich Niger Delta, says it intends to attack Muslims in order to protect Nigeria's "hapless Christian population." The planned attacks, which MEND says will begin on May 31, will include mosque and hajj bombings and assassination attempts against Muslim clerics.

MEND says its campaign--termed "Operation Barbarossa"--will commence unless:

the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), the Catholic Church and Henry Okah, one of the few leaders in the Niger Delta region we respect for his integrity, intervenes. Also, the assurance for a cessation of hostilities targeted at Christians in their places of worship, made privately or publicly by the real Boko Haram leadership will make us call off this crusade.
