I'm not a Christian, but I believe in these words:
"Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you" (Matthew 5:44)
What is the logic behind loving people who don't like you and may even want you dead? Did you love Osama?
Then what really gets me is "do good to them that hate you?." Let's say you're Jewish and the year is 1937. Would you consider inviting Hitler over for some burgers? Perhaps even give him a bottle of champagne as he's about to leave?
No, I wouldn't. Besides, Hitler was a vegetarian.
I think most of the Catholics on this board can explain this part of Matthew better than me.
My point is: I even can acknowledge that most people don't feel bad about the killing of Osama. But why dancing and shouting triumphantly about it? That has no greatness.
Maybe he had to be killed. I'm not sure about it. Maybe it would have been better to interrogate him.
And still nobody has answered here on which legal grounds Osama has been killed.
By the way, I don't intend any provocation here. I do believe that Osama was one of the most dangerous men on earth.
