War protesters storm Chicago Easter mass throwing fake blood..
As they listened to the gospel during mass Sunday, few parishioners at Holy Name parish could have imagined how their holiday service and their Easter finery were about to be tainted.

Six protesters disrupted the beginning of Cardinal Francis George's homily to shout their opposition to the Iraq war. The demonstrators—who called themselves Catholic Schoolgirls Against the War, despite their male and female membership—squirted fake blood on themselves and nearby worshipers as security guards tried to usher them from the parish's auditorium, where mass is being said during repairs on the downtown Chicago cathedral.

Why would someone do such a thing?

Opposing the war is one thing. Interfering with Easter Mass, the most holy day on the Christian Calendar, for the purposes of opposing a war is another thing entirely.

makes sense to me in a way, the christians should be the most outspoken critics of the war, or atleast one should think that they would.
 
They are. Understand that.

if they really were they would educate themselves, and Ron Paul would be winning in a landslide right now...Sorry, many Christians turn the cheek, especially since they believe this is the war of wars against the Islamic faith. ...
 
The Christians I know overwhelmingly support the war, but these are Southern Baptists (I help my Grandpa [pastor] prepare for church when I visit him).

Fake blood, though, is in terrible taste. More offensive then effective... Almost as bad as the "Holocaust on a Plate" campaign.

This makes no sense what so ever.

This is an appaling act that should be looked upon in disgust by anyone.

It doesn't matter if you think christians are being "hypocritical". You never invade their personal space by throwing fake blood, or anything for that matter on their persons.


We all want liberty; but do it the right way.
