Appreciate the responses. Yes there are many different reasons for Chrisitans to say silent but I dont think that the majority of Christians belong to a denomination that is against any fighting for good reasons. Yes, Jesus showed us how to be forgiving and look for the best in people, but that did not rule out condemning sin and fighting against evil. In fact we have a duty to be soldiers in helping to spread this message and fight against those who use force to keep people from making their own free will choices. Christians do not use force to convert people (not recently anyway) but should use force to protect their rights to learn freely.
I beleive too many Christians have only heard watered down teachings and have lost the passion and understanding of the Bible actually tells us. Why do we have emotions like anger if there is no good purpose for it. We all appreciate emotions like Love.Could our emotions help guide us and help us to understand our Creator (in his image) ? His Love and patience has certainly given me hope many times in my life. His anger against sin and evil certainly should help us to understand how we should feel and help us stand up in his name. The same as we would for our own family if attacked. Islam is attacking our beliefs and telling us not to follow the Bible but follow the Quaran..

In the last days those Christians who never take sides will be forced to take sides. Perhaps that time to choose is now or very soon.

Peace does not allows come without first a fight. !!! Our nation was founded on that principle along with belief in G-d.

I guess I missed something in the last few posts, some inuendos went over my head.

This topic wasn't meant so much to start condemning everyone as much as I was hoping to gain some insight first. Secondly, I was hoping to see if there is some potential building where we might finally start seeing some Christians and Jews speak out internationally as a group and put pressure on Governments as well as the Fanatical Religious Leaders. When I see Governments afraid to offend fanatical Islamic leaders because of their holiness or because of the Mosque they hide in, I realize secular governemnts can't win without our strong stand. Those Muslim leaders need to hear from other people who pray and honor G-d. They can respect that and have some concern that perhaps the Lord is listening to us as well. They certainly do not fear this life as much as the after life.

   I'm glad to see that several people agree, but what are we doing about it ? Shouldn't we be holding our Religious leaders accountable to stand up and show they believe in what the Bible or Torah (first 5 books) says , not the politically correct sanitized parts. It's easy to preach, "Love thy neighbor" but is that why we were blessed with over one thousand pages of information going back to the creation and forward to mankinds future ? The knwledge is given so it can be taught in full. How will anyone recognize spiritual or supernatural events if they don't even know about fallen angels and there existence today. How much ridiculing would a Pastor get when he prached to a professional progressive enlightened audience ? Probably a lot , but even that was predicted.  Let's start demanding more from our leaders and be more outspoken in public.

It Seems our houses of worship have gotten so sanitized that as this holy war against Non-Muslim beliefs heats up, there is no real outpouring of a call to action. At least the Muslims show their ferver and rise to the ocaision. This is a challenge to our faith and we should not expect any government to resolve this without strong active Religious support. Our Religious leaders should be speaking out to the Muslim leaders and we should be active in weeding out possible threats and supporting strong action. If we don't ,what does that say about our faith in G-d when tough times are upon us. Are we fair weather friends that talk a good game. Our Pastors, Rabbi's, Priests, have been too politically correct and not real teachers. I'm always amazed when I see biblical prophecies demonstrated before me such the part where everyone will have to choose sides (no fence sitting).

To Ebia (Reply 4),

Obviously you are a Muslim and your response proves my point.
Your hatred and intolerance will unfortunately not save your soul.
Also , this is a Christian site , I was writing to Christians not you.

Appreciate responses.

I do have some disagreements and would like clarification.

I don't beleive their G-d is the same G-d as that for Christians and Jews. Our G-d  specifies to test Prophets and use our Bible for the test. If they follow a prophet who goes against what our Bible teaches, then they can not believe in the same G-d. They may believe he is the same but that does not make it so.

Where do you get your facts regarding how many Muslims do not agree with the terrorist activities and why do you discount the parts of the Koran which are not so peaceful ?

The Muslims are actually quite organized worldwide. Just check the Media reports across the world. For example, the PBS in the USA was quite pro Arab/Muslim because of the huge amount of donations which was exposed after 9/11. Check any online posts , check anti-semitism rise and the groups that are pushing it (especially in France). I think you severely underestimate the Muslim's Beliefs and think of them as poor undereducated people.  Majority of them poor but as a whole have lots of hidden funds, many are very intellegent and educated, brainwashing the young is very dangerous for future, etc.

I think there is a real problem amongst Christians in general to look at this as a secular issue and not take sides and defend our religious freedom and really show we believe that out G-d is the true G-d and Creator.Although I have no idea if we are in the End Times or not,  we must still watch the events and be ready. There is a passage that says we will all have to take sides and not be fence sitters as so many of us tend to be. I trust my Creator as he has given me everything and Christians and Jews must make it clear there is a line in the sand and begin speaking out.

I'm wondering what others think regarding my opinion. I believe that the Islamic Terrorists are indeed part of an Islamic movement to create a one world Religion. I also beleive that the attacks and their ideals are essentially a holy war against Christians, Jews and others, In essence attacking our beliefs and our G-d. Therefore I believe that we and our Church and Synagogue leaders should be very active, very vocal, and in essence making sure that everyone understands the what we are up against. The only credit I can give the Terrorists is that they are indeed committed to their Religious beliefs and demonstrate how committed we need to be to stand up against them. If we have faith, we should believe we will win and not let Politics rule every decision.
