jesus is love, his followers created the IMF,WTO,WB and all the other criminal coperation in the world

[jj19961]

David is unable to answer the 2 questions from the audience one about Palestine and Israeli occupation, the other about the holocaust. He keeps saying: "I don't know...." that's when I realizing who this guy really is. He doesn't want to admit his support for Israeli occupation or for unjust wars in general because the oppressed are Muslims.

[MrGrandDragon]

Remember what David said about his views on peace. He doesn't agree with conquering them and forcing them to believe in God.

In that case he should explain why his God commanded people to slaughter men, women and children.

[MrGrandDragon]

David does not like the idea that his "Peace" loving God caused people to massacre each other before his God decided to kill himself in the New Testament.
