These Peace Pimps need to realize pretty quickly what we're up against. If the Islamists win, they don't much care for Christian pastors lecturing them on morality. These "Christians" also probably complained that Bush wasn't doing enough to stop the genocide in Darfur. These guys are nothing more than Lenin in a priest's costume. Global warming, materialism, imperialism, blah blah blah.
U.S. Church Alliance Denounces Iraq War
By BRIAN MURPHY, AP Religion Writer
A coalition of American churches sharply denounced the U.S.-led war in Iraq on Saturday, accusing Washington of "raining down terror" and apologizing to other nations for "the violence, degradation and poverty our nation has sown."
The statement, issued at the largest gathering of Christian churches in nearly a decade, also warned the United States was pushing the world toward environmental catastrophe with a "culture of consumption" and its refusal to back international accords seeking to battle global warming.
"We lament with special anguish the war in Iraq, launched in deception and violating global norms of justice and human rights," said the statement from representatives of the 34 U.S. members of World Council of Churches. "We mourn all who have died or been injured in this war. We acknowledge with shame abuses carried out in our name."
