Jewish State MK Desecration - Ripping Up the New Testament

Anti-Christ much?

A member of the Jewish state Knesset has torn up a copy of the New Testament in front of cameras in his parliament office this week. An aide says Christian missionaries mailed the Christian scripture to Michael Ben-Ari of the ultranationalist National Union Party.

Itamar Ben-Gvir said Ben-Ari, an Orthodox Jew, was enraged to receive the book, in whose name he says millions of Jews were slaughtered. Ben-Ari tore it up, he said, then posed for photographs with the destroyed Bible.

Hanna Sweid, the only Christian member of the Knesset said “This is hooliganism, bullying and an apocalyptic act of hatred that was baseless and unnecessary, This reflects the culture of a man who is dangerous to nations and religions of the world.”

In response to criticism he said “This abominable book, it galvanized the murder of millions of Jews during the Inquisition and during auto da fe instances, There is no doubt that this book and all it represents belongs in the garbage can of history.”

It is interesting that when an American pastor threatens to burn a Qur’an it makes international news and causes outrage but when an member of Israel’s Government records himself ripping up a bible and slandering it, it is not even mentioned by the BBC Webpage.

I know that the way in which we see the bible differs to Islam’s view of the Qur’an but surely it shows a double standard when a politician can do this.

Velikoretsky Procession, 2012

June 2-7, 2012 - Russia: Around 35,000 pilgrims participated in the Velikoretsky Procession, held annually in the Kirov Oblast. The procession is associated with the Icon of St. Nicholas the Wonderworker “Not-Made-by-Hands.” According to tradition, a local peasant named Semyon Agalakov found this icon in 1383 on the shores of the Velikaya River. After one of the villagers, who had not been able to walk, was healed by the icon, it was recognized as miraculous and became the object of pilgrimage.
