On his decision as President of the United States of America to claim the Philippine Islands for the United States in 1899, Mckinley said:
“There was nothing left for us to do but to take them all, and educate the Filipinos, and uplift and civilize and Christianize them, and by God’s grace do the very best we could for them, as our fellowmen for whom Christ also died.”
Mckinley must have been a religious moron who seriously read and clearly understood bible messages. In Luke 19:27. Christ said: “But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them for me.” That’s exactly what the Americans did to Filipinos in the Philippines in Christ’s name.
Poor Mckinley, he did not know that the Filipinos were already enjoying the failure of values and beliefs under the success of Christianity in the Philippines since the 16th century. Poch Suzara

Wow, talk about misinterpreting the facts! Since you have a slanted worldview every time you open the Bible, your perception of it wil be twisted. When Christ said, "slay them for me", he meant for them to be "slain in the spirit", or "held accountable for one's actions and drawn to Christ" (Layman's terms for ya).
Oh, yeah- quit referring to us as morons. It makes your iota of credibility seem a little tarnished.
Besides, he was speaking in a parable- a story taken out of context. He meant that those of us who waste our talents should be held accountable and come to God. (Our talents are a gift from him, not to be wasted) He didn't really mean for us to grab people who are lazy and kill them (read the whole story, don't take it out of context for once)
You are pathetically so obvious as a man man of faith - uou are like a drunkard who clings to a lamppost for support, not illumination.
Correction please: You are obviously a man of faith. You are like a silly drunakrd clinging to a lamppost for support, not illumination. Amen!
