Not sure what you're getting at.....Are those reasons to protest against building more Churches?
not at all, the op mentions protesters telling the "terrorists" to go back to where they came from, some seem to constantly link any mention of mosques, Islam or Muslims with terrorism. Merely pointing out that christians are quite capable of terrorist acts but not much of a mention anywhere. The last invasion of Iraq (act of terrorism in my opinion) was done by a self declared christian who also said God was on his side. Thats what I am getting at.
I won't argue about that. Obviously, those types of people do exist and I think it is great that the Muslim Leaders in Australia have publicly expressed outrage about extremists trying to influence Muslim youth.
I suspect that if other places of worship such as Churches, Temples or Synagogues were used by radicals to influence their youth in similar ways, we would also hear from the vocal minorities condemning whole religions.
I have seen, even on this forum, some saying they would never support Christian charities regardless of the great work they do. It is a shame.
