What is your definition of a 'Christian Country' ? Indeed, I be genuinely interested to know your definition of 'Christian'.

A question open to anyone of the same view.

Firstly I've been too depressed about the goings on to even want to look at this thread much, and when I did this morning it depressed me more. RIP all those who died and I hope their families eventually find peace.

Secondly the quote above is spot on and really the crux of the matter. If we suspend the process of law, or move to police states or back to executions we're no better than the medieval backwardsness that caused this in the first place. 129 or so people dead needlessly is hard to take. No one should die on the dance floor or outside a football match or at a bar or pizzaria on a normal Friday night. However, the alternative is millions of people living in fear of the special forces or secret police.

Millions of people living in fear of the special forces or secret police? Get real. A few hundred at most, and so they fvcking well should. Better that that millions of people living in fear of a handful of Islamic nutters hiding in plain sight.

When the worst happens there are two types of people: those who run towards it and those who run away.

I don't take direction from them. But as you made the statement, on a forum I read regularly, I'd be more interested to hear it from you- as it is your belief.

you never think it will happen to you. It was just a friday night at a rock show. the atmosphere was so happy and everyone was dancing and smiling. and then when the men came through the front entrance and began the shooting, we naiively believed it was all part of the show. It wasn't just a terrorist attack, it was a massacre. Dozens of people were shot right infront of me. Pools of blood filled the floor. Cries of grown men who held their girlfriends dead bodies pierced the small music venue. Futures demolished, families heartbroken. in an instant. Shocked and alone, I pretended to be dead for over an hour, lying among people who could see their loved ones motionless.. Holding my breath, trying to not move, not cry - not giving those men the fear they longed to see. I was incredibly lucky to survive. But so many didn't. The people who had been there for the exact same reasons as I - to have a fun friday night were innocent. This world is cruel. And acts like this are suppose to highlight the depravity of humans and the images of those men circuling us like vultures will haunt me for the rest of my life. The way they meticoulsy aimed at shot people around the standing area i was in the centre of without any consideration for human life. It didn't feel real. i expected any moment for someone to say it was just a nightmare. But being a survivor of this horror lets me able to shed light on the heroes. To the man who reassured me and put his life on line to try and cover my brain whilst i whimpered, to the couple whose last words of love kept me believing the good in the world, to the police who succeded in rescuing hundreds of people, to the complete strangers who picked me up from the road and consoled me during the 45 minutes I truly believed the boy i loved was dead, to the injured man who i had mistaken for him and then on my recognition that he was not Amaury, held me and told me everything was going to be fine despite being all alone and scared himself, to the woman who opened her doors to the survivors, to the friend who offered me shelter and went out to buy new clothes so i wouldnt have to wear this blood stained top, to all of you who have sent caring messages of support - you make me believe this world has the potential to be better. to never let this happen again. but most of this is to the 80 people who were murdered inside that venue, who weren't as lucky, who didnt get to wake up today and to all the pain that their friends and families are going through. I am so sorry. There's nothing that will fix the pain. I feel priviledged to be there for their last breaths. And truly beliving that I would join them, I promise that their last thoughts were not on the animals who caused all this. It was thinking of the people they loved. As i lay down in the blood of strangers and waiting for my bullet to end my mere 22 years, I envisioned every face that I have ever loved and whispered I love you. over and over again. reflecting on the highlights of my life. Wishing that those i love knew just how much, wishing that they knew that no matter what happened to me, to keep belieivng in the good in people. to not let those men win. Last night, the lives of many were forever changed and it is up to us to be better people. to live lives that the innocent victims of this tragedy dreamt about but sadly will now never be able to fulfil. RIP angels. You will never be forgotten.

So every country with a known religion should not let anyone else in ?

You are quite bigoted at times to say the least

Actually, I'm not sure there is anybody on here as bigoted as you. Must be nice to think you're right all the time. Beware of apoplexy when someone disagrees with you though - it can be fatal. The ultimate denouement could also come as a bit of a bummer ........

Some questions for you.....

What is the first word of the national anthem?
How would you describe the design of the British and other home nations flags?
What are the national days of the home nations named after?
Before "first names" what did people say when asking for your first name?
When Churchill used to speak to the nation in the war whose help did he always invoke?
When the King was deposed by Cromwell, how would you describe his political outlook?

No, I don't think you would. Your belief systems, whatever they are, are too firmly entrenched to consider any others.

You really are a CAUC at times, have a reality check you cannot actually grasp any sensible debate at all
