Spot the Idiot.

Some flyspeck named Jim Naylor at some online site called Splice seems to believe that if he thinks you ought to condemn Norwegian terrorists in the form that he thinks is proper, then you have failed his test for not being complicit with the terrorist:

Where's the Condemnation?

Jim Naylor

The eerie official silence in the wake of the Norway massacre.

In the event you have no opinions on Anders Breivik, you’re a moron. This is why I’m surprised that I haven’t seen or heard from Christianity's leaders on the matter. I’ve gone from the Vatican to the Saddleback Ministries, and then some, and I’ve got to say I’ve been getting nothing back in response from all but one (and to add an insult, that one made a precursory statement of no comment). The only thing I could gather from my attempted correspondence with Christian leadership is that Rick Warren doesn’t want to say anything unless he and his people know my angle. It’s like they’re all too afraid of their own shady scriptures to condemn them, or perhaps they condone it and they just don’t want the non-Christian parts of the world to know their true colors. Why are a majority of Christians silent and unable to publicly condemn (or at least disown) a fundamentalist Christian that committed an act of terror?

I mentioned the Vatican already, but their silence has reminded me of their semi-silent acceptances of larger, more organized, mass killings. The lack of response from the Vatican shows the world just how Ratzinger feels about Breivik. I may as well lump the Vatican in with Westboro Baptist Church. At this point, only the WBC has anything to say about it; nothing nice, but at least they have the balls to come out and say what they really think instead of being silent to avoid lying. Pat Roberts and his ministry: nothing. Trinity United, ditto. I thought maybe Rick Warren would offer an opinion. After all, around 2006, he was saying that Fundamentalism in religion would be a danger to society. Why not hold Warren to his words, call him on BS, and see if he’s willing to lead by example? Instead I got a reply via email stating that neither he nor his ministry has made, or is willing to make a statement. But the next day via Twitter he asks people to pray away the pain. I guess a deleted tweet says more about what Warren really finds important at times like these. Perhaps my focus should be on Rick Warren; after all he probably doesn’t want to believe Anders Breivik is a Christian.

It's not apparent that Breivik is a Christian from any perspective other than that he may have said he was.  From the standpoint of living a life according to the tenets of Christian doctrine, he ain't. 

Unlike Islam, there is no text in Christianity's Holy Book imposing a duty on Christians to kill unbelievers.  The text is noteworthy for counseling loving one's neighbors.  Breivik didn't love his neighbors; he killed his neighbors because he was a psycho.  Ergo he was not a Christian. QED.

Does this flyspeck named Jim Naylor really believe that Pope Benedict - or any of the pastors he identifies - endorses the murder of children?  If he does, he needs psychotherapy, not a reasoned response.
In fact, of course, to be expected, Pope Benedict did condemn the acts of Breivik -

Pope Benedict XVI has called on people to renounce hatred in the face of the “deep sorrow” felt over the terror attacks in Norway.


The pope urged people to pray for the dead, the wounded and their loved ones as he spoke to pilgrims and tourists from the balcony of his summer palace in Castel Gandolfo near Rome.

Benedict says he is issuing a heartfelt appeal for people to “abandon hatred once and for all” and renounce what he calls “the logic of evil”.

The pope yesterday sent a condolence message to Norway’s king, denouncing the “senseless violence”.

His envoy in Norway called the terror attacks “madness” and said the victims would be remembered at Sunday Mass.

"Unfortunately, yet again comes news of death and violence,'' Benedict said at the start of his greetings to the faithful.

"We all feel deep sorrow for the grave terrorist acts.''

“I want to again repeat my grief-stricken appeal to all to abandon forever the way of hatred and to run away from the logic of evil,” Benedict said in his remarks, speaking in Italian.

Apparently, "grave terrorist acts" is not clear enough for Naylor and his intellectual pygmies at Splice.

By the way, has Splice or Naylor condemned any of the dozens of Muslim attacks on Christians that were committed during the last year?  If not, by his logic, he apparently is complicit in those attacks.
