Notice how this Roman Catholic rag slanders "Christianity,"
as if Maronite Roman Catholics represented real followers of Christ.

The [Maronite Roman Catholic] patriarch enjoys the full support of the Vatican and Pope John Paul II. But today the Vatican's approach to Lebanon is made harder and more difficult by the internecine war between Christian brothers and sisters. Vatican diplomacy in Lebanon is guided by the principle that Lebanon must be saved as an example of co-existence in order to be able to protect its Christian populations throughout the region.
The predicament of Lebanon's Maronites is part of a general crisis of identity in the Middle East. Arab Christians today are at a crossroads. The last bastion of Christianity in the Levant is crumbling under the heavy blows of those who claim to be Christ's followers. In addition, Arab Christians and Lebanon's Maronites are facing an aggressive wave of Islamic fundamentalism coming from Iran and the Israeli-occupied territories. The question Christians face is how one best defends one's presence as a living faith: by weapons and terror or by worship and atonement? osv

-END QUOTE-
THE BLOODY TRAGEDY OF LEBANON WAS NOT A WAR BETWEEN CHRISTIANS, NOR A WAR OF CHRISTIANS AGAINST MOSLEMS.
IT WAS A WAR OF MARONITE ROMAN CATHOLICS VERSUS MARONITE-ROMAN CATHOLICS & MARONITE ROMAN CATHOLICS VERSUS MOSLEMS.
REAL CHRISTIANS HAVE NOT AND DO NOT WAGE CARNAL WAR.
REAL CHRISTIANS HAVE ALWAYS LOOKED UP TO JESUS CHRIST
REAL CHRISTIANS HAVE NEVER LOOKED UP TO THE POPE !
THE PAPACY/VATICAN/Roman Catholic CULT is the "Great Whore" of the Revelation and is a SHAME to Jesus Christ and real Christianity.
