Marine in Iraq Suspended Over Coins Quoting Gospel

[jamesrage]

Amazing how people who have no respect what so ever for other religions seem to have the nerve to demand respect for their religion.Apparently the Marines must be infested the politically correct liberals in order try to appease a group of people who have no respect what so ever for other religions. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/conte...8052903683.htmlBAGHDAD, May 29 -- The U.S. military suspended a Marine on Thursday for distributing coins quoting the Gospel to Sunni Muslims, an incident that has enraged Iraqis who view it as the latest example of American disrespect for Islam.The Marine, stationed in the western city of Fallujah, handed out silver-colored coins this week that said in Arabic: "Where will you spend eternity? (John 3:36)." The other side read: "For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life (John 3:16)."ad_icon"We are sorry for this behavior," said Mike Isho, a U.S. military spokesman in Anbar province, which includes Fallujah. He said the Marine, whom he did not identify, distributed only a few of the coins and that the episode was under investigation."This incident doesn't represent the morals of the Marines," he said.Mohammed Amin Abdel-Hadi, the head of the Sunni Endowment in Fallujah, an institution responsible for overseeing the sect's mosques, criticized U.S. troops, whom many in the city view as occupiers, for acting like Christian missionaries. He said the coins were part of a pattern of insensitivity toward Muslims, citing the outcry this month over a U.S. sniper in Baghdad who used a Koran, Islam's holiest book, as a target for practice."We demand the Americans leave us alone and stop creating religious controversies," Hadi said. "First, they shot the Koran, and now they come to proselytize inside Fallujah."

"This incident doesn't represent the morals of the Marines," he said.
and that is whats wrong with the marines, the government, our society , and America. If spreading the Gospel isn't morally correct I want to know what is!!!I want to go up to those marines, and personally thank and bless them for serving our country and the kingdom of God.and we call ourselves a nation under God.
