Barbaric Clergymen!

The following photo of the violent demonstrations in Tehran yesterday published on the FOX NEWS website, says it all about the religion of Islam! This photo shows an Iranian clergyman throwing a stone at the embassy. Is this really what Muslims understand by the term 'religion'? Is this what religion means to them? Is this how they expect a 'man of the cloth' to behave? Can you imagine a Roman Catholic priest or one from the Anglican/Episcopalian Church behaving in such a debauched, barbaric manner? Whatever one's views on religion, whether one is a believer in any faith, or not, one thing I think we can all agree on: This is no way for a clergyman to behave!

With this compassionate religious rock thrower in mind, I link to the following. Though some may have read this or something similar, others may not. There is an essential truth in this essay which more of us need to wake up to, for if we do, we will more easily recognize the malaise which is chocking the West.

Sheep Dogs.

Long, but worth the effort.

Not sure why, but the link above takes you to the bottom of the page, so scroll back up.

They may humiliate a few young boys and a girl,for all the world to see, but they will harden the hearts of good people, who will no longer feel bad as just rewards are delivered to those scoundrels.

Beautifully stated, and so true.
