The Roman Catholic Church is the most persecuted group of Christians in China for refusing to placate the Communist government on this one issue, and the distinction has to be made because the treatment between the two groups is so radically different.Karcy R.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16718170975698347809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11840313.post-62748669180531969472009-05-23T05:08:42.967-07:002009-05-23T05:08:42.967-07:00Ben sorry for the off topic post.

I have been interested in whether Bonhoeffer, a pacifist, concluded that it would be a pretty good idea to blast Hitler to smithereens or not. (Not sure anybody knows whether he supported this course of action or not).Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09279981651080412934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11840313.post-2291602738648010012009-05-19T13:16:00.000-07:002009-05-19T13:16:00.000-07:00I agree: Star Trek was awesome.
