I've Been Thinking:

On Christmas day there was a slew of terrorist attacks against Christians by Muslim terrorists. The Pope, in his Sunday mass from St. Peter's Square in the Vatican, condemned the attacks.

These attacks should have come as no surprise - they were to be expected.

In Nigeria, two churches were bombed resulting in at least 32 deaths and critically wounding 70. A Church in the Philippines was also attacked.

Nigeria is the most populous country in Africa. Of the180 million people living in Nigeria, there is an almost even split between Muslims and Christians. The average wage in Nigeria is about $1200 per year.

Muslim / Christian relations throughout Africa are stressed and they will continue to be stressed. Al Qaeda is gaining more and more sympathizers. What most annoys these newly recruited Muslim terrorists is the public displays of the other religions within their borders and the fact that religions other then Islam are given recognition as equal or even viable alternatives to Islam.

And that is why terrorists target Christian churches on and around Christian holidays.
