An explosion ripped through a Catholic church during Christmas Mass near Nigeria's capital Sunday, killing at least 25 people.

A second explosion later went off near another church in the city of Jos, raising fears that a radical Muslim sect was continuing its campaign of sectarian violence.

There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the blasts, but the explosions come amid a wave of attacks in Nigeria by Boko Haram, which has been blamed for at least 465 killings this year alone.  ...In Jos, a second explosion struck near a Mountain of Fire and Miracles Church, government spokesman Pam Ayuba said.
Ayuba said gunmen later opened fire on police guarding the area, wounding one police officer.

The bastards can't allow the Christians to a single peaceful moment can they?

Simply horrible, but what else can anyone expect from adherents of the religion of peace.
It's gonna be crickets from the media since the perps are non-Christians and the victims are. :fuelfire:

Rest in peace, dear worshippers and may their families be comforted.

It may sound morbid, but to die in church practicing your faith and religious beliefs is not a bad way to go. That being said, so much for the Religion of Peace.

Those were my exact thoughts when I read the article at the top of this thread.

I guess live and let live is not an option in islam.

Peace on Earth, good will towards men...unless you're from the religion of perpetual outrage.

The so called religion of islam is all about hate, fear and death.

This is but one example.

And will we hear any Muslims crying out disdain for this attack?
