‘Nigerian Taliban’ Bombings Kill Dozens in Christmas Day Church Attacks
LAGOS, Nigeria (AP) — An explosion ripped through a Catholic church during Christmas Mass near Nigeria’s capital Sunday, killing at least 25 people, officials said. A radical Muslim sect claimed the attack and another bombing near a church in the restive city of Jos, as explosions also struck the nation’s northeast.
The Christmas Day attacks show the growing national ambition of the sect known as Boko Haram — dubbed the “Nigerian Taliban” — which is responsible for at least 491 killings this year alone, according to an Associated Press count. The assaults come a year after a series of Christmas Eve bombings in Jos claimed by the militants left at least 32 dead and 74 wounded.

Another Catholic church and Catholics wounded and people dead, by the hands of radical Islam. Will the world continue to keep silent about Muslim attacks on Catholic/Christians, Jews and Moderate Mulsims? I wish I could say that finally Progressives in this country would find the courage within themselves to find and stand for the truth, but I am afraid the answer is that they will not find the moral courage within to do the right thing and fight against the evil that wants to destroy the good. Who has so much hate in their hearts that they convince themselves that they are obeying God by killing Catholic/Christians, Jews, and Moderate Muslims, who don’t worship God the exact same way as they do. Who are open in regards to their hate toward Christians and Jews. Who will kill Moderate Muslims for standing up for their true Muslim faith.
Like radical Muslims we have CI/White Nationalists who twist their Christian faith into justifying their HATE, much like the Muslims who twist their faith to justify their HATE. Hate is never from God, but always of the evil one. God is about LOVE.
When we LOVE God so much that we are willing to follow his teachings and commandments, even if doing so means we might be inprisioned like Paul, Peter, and all the other great saints. It might mean we even die for our faith, like Catholics who are now dead because they chose to follow their faith and go to mass this Christmas morning. We are willing to die for the Bible, like John Tyndale who faced torture for translating the Bible into English so that the normal person could read it for themselves, yet how many so call Catholic/Christians read the Bible and believe it is the Word of God. We don’t believe God dictated the Bible like Calvinists do, but that God inspired men to write the Bible for our instruction, and that we must respect the Bible and allow the Bible to help us in our Christian walk. No today we have so called Christians who never open the Bible, pray the rosary everyday, and try and live by the Commandments. To them the Bible is stories. You know fairy tales that aren’t true. They don’t think the Bible has any value, and mock and laugh at Catholics who do believe the Bible is the Word of God that we honor and respect, read, and allow to change our evil hearts of hate to good hearts of love. We must choose will we follow christ or will we continue to pretend we are following Christ? Going to mass every Sunday or even every morning save you. It is your personal relationship with Christ that saves you. Christ will never force you to do what is right, because he believes in free will. Collective Salvation is nothing but a lie, as though Christ’s salvation is open to everyone, it is up to us to say yes. We are saved indiviually. The state doesn’t take the place of Christ. The state will never save you. It is Christ that SAVES you. I pray for my Catholic brothers and sisters who have fallen for the lie of Collective salvation to repent of their sins and come back to the true Catholic faith. It is easy in this world to be deceived and to believe lies as truth. I know I was fooled. I was fooled into thinking that people who pretended to be my friends and sais they only wanted what was best for me, turned out to be con men who only wanted something from me that would help them, but who didn’t care what happen to me after they had stripped from me what they needed until there was nothing more to give. This is part of the PTSD, and having to face the truth, that they are not good Catholics as they pretend to be, but evil people, who won’t even tell me the truth. I only want the truth, but they can’t even write me and tell me the truth and we talk things out through email. No, it is silence and not caring that I was abused over them, and when the abuse go so bad that I was at the end of my rope, and I found the courage to ask for help was screamed at that it wasn’t his problem. To allow a girl to be abused over him and his uncle who were men, is wrong. We are taught as Catholics to love our neighbor as ourselves. To allow a girl to be abused over her and refuse to help her find a safe place to stay for a few days until my mother’s wrath was over, goes against that commandment.
Why the silence and the refusal to tell me the truth. I deserve to hear the truth and have my questions answered honestly. If j is not man enough to face me in person, then we can write and talk things out through email. That why he doesn’t have to look into my eyes and face me. When someone becomes my friend, I never no matter what happens stop loving them as friends. It is very hard for me to admit to myself that there are evil people who for their own selfishness refuse to do the right thing. They allow their fellow Catholics to take the fall for them, and refuse to even tell them the truth. I have said over and over that I don’t want anything but the truth.
Why the silence and the unwillingness to do the right thing as my Catholic brother? Having over 20 years to think about this question, I come up to 1. J is guilty and can’t face me because he knew he sinned against me that day in the barn when I was seeking a safe place to hide from my mom. or 2. J is an evil man who enjoyed knowing that I was being abused over him and his uncle. Who received inner happiness so therefore he refused to help stop the abuse, because he wanted it to continue.
I don’t have must trust or respect for his brother either, who I asked to help me talk to Joe. He too as a fellow Catholic refuses to do the right thing. Why?
God is wonderful and he is gradually healing me and helping me face the truth, that I was fooled to think they were good and devout Catholics and true american patriots who loved this country enough to pick up the sword and fight to save the Constitution that is being ripped up before our eyes. Who refuse to stand up to those inside our government who LIE and for their greed have corrupted the government. BOTH PARTIES HAVE DONE THIS, BUT THEY ARE HYPROCRITS BECAUSE THEY ONLY SPEAK OUT AGAINST CONSERVATIVE AND REPUBLCIANS, BUT STAY SILENT AND SUPPORT THE DEMS WHO DO THE SAME THING THAT THEY CONDEMN THE REPUBLICANS ARE DOING.
I condemn both Dems and my own party the Gop. I don’t play favorates. I will continue to pray for them, that someday they may find the courage within themselves to do the right thing and tell me the truth. Who will renounce their sins and turn away from their sins, but turn to Christ and the true Catholic faith. Who will do the right thing. My heart keeps hoping they will, but my mind tells me that I must accept that they are not the people they pretend to be.
Merry Christmas everyone. Hope you have a very happy day.
We went to the German place yesterday and it was excellent as always. I got my black forrest cake that I love. Today I am going to make dinner here. My mom loves apple pie so I am going to make an apple pie for desert.
Tomorrow I am going to see my friend again who is visiting her mother.
Love and Blessings to all
