Let's see, shalom aleichem, salaam aleikum, or pax vobiscum- of the three which is more correct?

Matt W: PLEASE . These Arabic speaking "christians" must be afraid to use God's name for fear of reprisal.While we are being politically correct the whole world groans waiting for the messiah and it will jump at the wrong guy.This bishop should be given the boot.Read the bible again because it does NOT say Allah in it . The greek aramaic and hebrew words for God are not allah Satans almost perfect counterfiet.I don't think God wants us to use the name of a false god. C'mon lets call a spade a spade

I wonder what Evie was agreeing with. John's comments represent one of the most confusing assortment of contradictory statements, malaproisms, assumptions and assertions I've seen in a while. Kudos, John, for getting so much bang for your buck, as it were. Matt, your comments were insightful and helpful. I wonder how Joel Edwards gets off so easily laying "all the problems of the world" at our feet? Or is he referring to Evangelical problems. It is so easy to just blame us. Or blame our "idiot president". I wonder who the idiot really is? It is not the president.

Joel Edwards first step should be to resign from the Evangelical Alliance, seeing how he is hesitating to call himself one because of shame. Then he should do a little study of history. I am not defending all that the United States has done, but what I am most ashamed of as an American is that my government and many citizens have stooped to do the same things we decried in others. This is a long shot from being the cause of most problems. Mr. Edwards is as much as saying that if we had erased the United States from the world, then we would have less than 50% of the problems we do. The fact that such a man has reached a position of leadership scares me.

I totally agree with John. Especially the "wake up people" part.
