A former United States mayor, Mike Arnold, had explained why those perpetrating atrocious acts in southeastern Nigeria are not called “Christian terrorists”.
In a statement he posted on his official Facebook page on
Friday, Arnold revealed that a Muslim fellow asked him why he failed to discuss
“Christian terrorists in the South-East of Nigeria”.
The question concerns the criminal activities being
perpetrated by suspected members of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, in
the region.
In response, Arnold declared that there is “no possible way
for there to be a “Christian Terrorist.” Why? Because such acts prove that the
perpetrator is NOT a Christian”.
According to Arnold, “It is a 180 degree departure from the
teachings and example of Jesus. Just because one is from a predominantly
Christian tribe or region, or perhaps even labels themselves such, doesn’t make
it so.
“It’s like saying someone is a flagrant homosexual Muslim.
You would deny such a person is Muslim because it is not possible.
“They are not following Mohammed or the Quran. Right? On the
flip side, however, all the bloodthirsty terrorist who are slaughtering,
raping, enslaving, displacing, destroying while yelling Allahu Akbar… they are
indeed faithfully following the footsteps of Mohammed and the foundational
teachings of Islam.
“This is why we talk about Islamic terrorists and not
Christian. One is a bloody reality, the other is impossible fiction”.
