Yes, but you have to remember that they are backed by the One True GodTM*. This means, of course that the others are not, although up to this point they’ve done a pretty good impression of that He’s on their side instead.
“…if there is no God, everything is permitted.” is an interesting statement, but the opposite is true, too.

*Note: excluding Catholics (most of the time) and those uppity Quakers.

But Christians have always been like that. They scream for tolerance, they scream for respect, which is the same thing in their minds.

But they don’t give respect to anyone, they only scream to GET respect.

Then we are disrespectful and intolerant if we don’t take our rightful place ‘beneath’ them(their version of GOD).

Sadaam Hussein, at least in his early years, presented himself as a secular pro-western dictator. He wa pretty friendly toward the Christian minority, and some Christians went quite far in the Baath party. It’s no woder they’ve fallen on hard times recently.

At least they are doing better than the Mandaeans who are facing extinction:

Ouch! This post bites.

What the hey, the Bush administration had to accept some “collateral damage” in return for their “success”…
