br> -- Joseph R. Davey /p> p> Brandon Crocker points out the moral bankruptcy of the moral equivalence crowd, but he neglects mentioning the underlying cause of moral equivalency: simple cowardice. The morally equivalent crowd desired to placate the Soviet Union, of which (for good reason) they were terrified. The good ol' US of A, however, didn't frighten anyone. How simple to curry favor with the Soviets by (safely) trashing the Americans who opposed the U.S.S.R. Likewise with today's jihadists. Eurotrash and the American left are terrified by the brutal nature of Islamofascism. How much safer and easier to appease the nasty jihadists by attacking the non-threatening Christian community or conservatives generally than to actually confront the terrorists themselves!! These people are gutless; they are despicable and deceitful parasites who endure only because the people they insult have the fortitude to carry on. br> -- Steve Gingerich br> Battle Ground, Washington /p> p> It's interesting to see the secularists blaming those of a religious bent for the various problems in the world. But, what gives one pause is that the one and only time in history that the secularists had any real political power was the French Revolution and the subsequent Reign of Terror, and we all know (or should know) what happened then. Seems that the pot is calling the kettle black again. br> -- Bob Schwartz br> Buffalo, New York /p> p> EXPOSE THE HOSPITALS
