    A lot of Christians seem okay with a government assassinating a journalist. This use of the Augustine (cc: @ebruenig) is a nice touch.https://twitter.com/ProvMagazine/status/1053727803894587392 …

        Comparing Kashoggi’s murder to a baseless, evidence less conspiracy theory? You need to update your talking points. BTW, Captain America would despise you.

        Accepting the righteousness of killing unarmed men, women, and children, which is being done by the thousands in Yemen with our help, goes back to the Crusades & Wars of Religion.

        "unduly punish"? What's a little torture, murder & genocide between friends?

        They say pragmatism when they mean they have no qualms whatsoever and only needed a false pragmatic excuse to look good for their secular friends.

        Probably more than a few 5th century Donatists who would object to Augustine being associated with not-stirring-up-shit.

        There's quite a contrast between #Globalists telling us that the world is a great big huggy toy bear to embrace [perhaps a panda], & the outrage over 1 death, however horrible. China squeezes its expatriates [including US citizens] by doing bad stuff to their relatives in China.
