Whether one believes that Christians are "under attack" or not, perhaps Christians forget that we were /promised/ persecution by Christ himself, and it is to be a source of blessing:
"Blessed are they who are persecuted for righteousness' sake for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are you when men revile you, and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against you falsely for my sake." (Matthew 5:10-11)
Sounds like a ton of fun...
Tell me if this sounds familiar: a famously Christian world leader props up his position by using a pack of lies to sell a Middle East invasion to drive out despotic Muslims.
Bush II in '03?
No: Urban II in '95. Pope Urban II, in 1095, selling the first Crusade to oust what he called "A race absolutely alien to God" from Jerusalem.
Wasn't there a Pope Rural as well? Succeeded by Urban I, due to outmigration I believe...
