Extremely Smart, Progressive T-Shirts & Gifts > "Love Your Enemies" is in Anti-War

"Patriots asked Jesus to lead them in an armed struggle against a hated foreign occupying power. . . . Jesus replied, 'Love your enemies.'" The parallels between ancient Rome's occupation of Judea in Jesus's time and the U.S. occupation of Iraq today are striking. The contrast between the behavior of "Christians" in Iraq and how Jesus told them to behave is even more striking. The image on this design is a silhouette of one of the prisoners abused by Americans at the abu Ghraib prison, torture sanctioned by "Christians" from Bush on down. How DARE they claim to be followers of Jesus of Nazareth?!
