  With the kidnapping of six Jehovahs Witnesses in the Philippines, of whom two are beheaded, this is the second clash between Jehovahs Witnesses and Muslims within a few weeks.

  "....The villagers complain that the Witnesses entice the community's children to join its ranks by offering them chocolates and sweets to attend services....."

  Perhaps the villagers would prefer that a few Muslims be beheaded with a note attached to their heads.......

  The Watchtower Society appears to be pushing more recruitment even in dangerous parts of the planet as recruiting of new members is less successful in the West. More blood guilt.

  No humans deserve the treatment received by the Witnesses in this case.

  But, on the other hand, this part of the world is poor, uneducated, and tightly controlled by fundamentalist Islamic groups. In many ways, it is a powderkeg. If you insist on playing with fire, sometimes explosions occur.
