I suppose one could say that by resisting, Obama spared them the trouble of deciding. The fact still remains that their first intention was not to kill him. It was not assasination by definition.Restore-DC-Catholicismhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17478857915379063106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1015949969530867456.post-74852624952185214652011-05-03T23:30:57.233-04:002011-05-03T23:30:57.233-04:00That's a fair criticism Janet.

Other than putting his hands up and saying I surrender, how much room could a rational person give him?<br /><br />Taking him alive, holding him in prison for war crimes would have brought the wrath of Al Queda upon us. We averted a disaster, IMO.

While the SEALS knew they'd probably have to kill him, and were prepared to do so, I understand they wanted to take him alive. He resisted so they had no choice.Restore-DC-Catholicismhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17478857915379063106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1015949969530867456.post-31268470032323306622011-05-03T22:32:24.312-04:002011-05-03T22:32:24.312-04:00Well, they don't call you

The Scriptural references, which are to be applied while a soul is living are misapplied to give sympathy to one of the greatest minions of the devil who ever lived. <br /><br />It is a mockery of the price of our salvation, Christ's Life, Passion and Execution.<br /><br />Those who 'rejoice' in a victory of God's are not rejoicing over the loss of a soul. We rejoice that God has granted captives and victims and future captives and victims, mercy. We are thrilled by the miracle in one of the holiest days, certainly that I have ever known in my life.<br /><br />Has EWTN assigned an editor? What is going on over there? <br /><br />Surely the Archbold's will bring some lucidity to the madness.TTChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08738875888053745269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1015949969530867456.post-2799947146381032142011-05-03T19:16:49.433-04:002011-05-03T19:16:49.433-04:00Joseph, I haven't checked the NCR. Thanks for...Joseph, I haven't checked the NCR. Thanks for the heads-up. You would have to go a long way to deny Osama Bin Laden was a tool of the anti-Christ and his assassination a victory over that darkness, freedom to the oppressed and an act of justice on behalf of the common good. <br /><br />Thankfully prayers are never wasted because some people have a soft spot in their hearts for the devil. If that guy's life's work doesn't get him a sentence in hell, it sure is a lucky day for the dogs, sorcerers, unchaste, murderers, and servers of idols, and every one that loveth and maketh a lie, eh?<br /><br />Chris, your reference to Lepanto is absolutely right on! I'm not quite sure though that just because a person thinks they're doing something 'for god' it's going to be an acceptable excuse. Didn't Christ say something like not all who say they thought they were doing something on behalf of God are going to gain entry into Heaven? I think He said His response would be 'get away from me, I don't know you, the things you did were unauthorized' - something like that. <br /> <br /> <br />I believe it was St. Joan of Arc, who in the middle of a battle, told the enemies of Christ before they were killed to come out and go to hell where they belonged. Bin Laden was one of the worst enemies of Christendom in the history of civilization. I don't see any ambiguity on this one.<br /><br />Lance, Judeo-Christians have a long and rich history of petitioning God to intercede against bondage being carried out at the hands of the 'political'. Lepanto, as Chris mentions is a fantastic example. There are a lot of Egyptian chariots in the Red Sea. A wall in Jericho came tumbling down. A Roman empire was leveled. The fight between good and evil is very much a part of 'politics' and it will be until the end of time.TTChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08738875888053745269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1015949969530867456.post-4697491687884386162011-05-03T15:59:30.404-04:002011-05-03T15:59:30.404-04:00Assuming his guilt (as I do), I too rejoice, Lepan...Assuming his guilt (as I do), I too rejoice, Lepanto-style, as I rejoice at the execution of Hans Frank, gauleiter of Poland. <br /><br />I also rejoice that the murderous Frank was reconciled to the Catholic Church before he was hanged, and expressed his contrition on the gallows. <br /><br />Rejoicing at their deaths doesn't stop me praying for their souls, as I do and shall.<br /><br />If Laden thought, albeit wrongly, that he was serving God, I take it that the Almighty has taken this into Consideration.Left-footerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18154175028539882422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1015949969530867456.post-37788026510359315302011-05-03T13:37:09.999-04:002011-05-03T13:37:09.999-04:00Keep religion political!
