And in the Big News today from a Faith Perspective, martyrs. Aren’t they great. There are good martyrs, like Catholic ones, and totally misguided evil ones.

Platitude of the Day 
Whenever you hear some person of faith talking about ‘martyrs’, you can be sure that they are referring solely and exclusively to their own people. Even though the number of Christians ‘martyred’ by the wicked Romans is far outweighed by the number of non-Christians slaughtered later by the Church, nobody ever refers to the latter as ‘martyrs’. The very idea seems absurd.
It’s a bit more difficult to get ‘martyred’ these days, although it does still happen. But only to your own side. You seldom hear the six million Jewish Holocaust victims referred to by non-Jews as martyrs, even though that is one of the terms used by Jews themselves. Perhaps we should stop using the term altogether, although I can’t see Christians giving it up easily. It has too much rhetorical value.

Imagine how all those martyred for Christianity or any other religion felt when they died and discovered there was no after life.
