think about it. We phillistines would be entertained, the lions would get a good square meal, and the Christians would go to Heaven! Everyone's happy!

No.
Interestingly, such "hatred" should be expected by true Christians in this time of the end, and it actually helps identify Jehovah's Witnesses as Christ's true disciples:
(John 15:19) If you were part of the world, the world would be fond of what is its own. Now because you are no part of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, on this account the world hates you.
(Luke 6:22) Happy are you whenever men hate you, and whenever they exclude you and reproach you and cast out your name as wicked for the sake of the Son of man.
(1 Peter 4:4) Because you do not continue running with them in this course to the same low sink of debauchery, they are puzzled and go on speaking abusively of you.
(2 Timothy 4:3-5) For there will be a period of time when they will not put up with the healthful teaching, but, in accord with their own desires, they will accumulate teachers for themselves to have their ears tickled; and they will turn their ears away from the truth, whereas they will be turned aside to false stories. You, though, keep your senses in all things, suffer evil, do the work of an evangelizer, fully accomplish your ministry.
It seems signficant that the relatively small religion of Jehovah's Witnesses are the ones best known for their worldwide preaching work. Yet Jesus commanded that ALL who would call themselves "Christian" perform this public work:
(Matthew 28:19,20) Go therefore and make disciples of people of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the holy spirit, teaching them to observe all the things I have commanded you. And, look! I am with you all the days until the conclusion of the system of things.

Evidently you must be an atheist and do not like Christians. After-all you've said and other people like you, say things you don't know anything about. So it really doesn't phase us a bit. As a matter of fact I feel sorry for you and people like you. Because when we Christians '' go to heaven'' like you said we would, then all the atheist would bust hell wide open! You know something else I just realized? You must believe in a God and heaven because you said we could go there and y'all would be happy. I am sorry you're so confused and mixed up.

No, I don't think that we should bring back feeding Christians to the lions. Those who ask questions like yours are the ones who should be fed to the lions. Only problem is that it might give the lions a bad case of indigestion.

*sigh* The Christians were "fed to the lions" precise alongside their fellow Pagan lawbreakers. You broke the regulation, you could finally end up contained in the sector. It wasn't an get mutually of religious persecution.

Ha Ha very very funny.
You do realize that this is 2006,and that would be a 2000 year old reverse.
If we did that, maybe we should subject criminals to crucifications, Muslims genocides, wearing linen robes, building colliseums, living in adobe houses, wearing strappy sandals, plowing our field with oxens, revert back to having slaves and serfs, build walls to separate races, trash our cars and use boats, camels, goats, and horses. And kill ALL those who disagree...
You can go through all that if you want, but I'm pretty sure those fighting for technology advancement and enrichment would have your head.

Don't fret, your day is coming when Christians will be persecuted even more than they are now, except I believe the bible predicts we will be beheaded for our beliefs as opposed to a three course meal. But that could still be fun, right?

That's not how the world works! I'm Christian! We die and go to Heaven after our life is over, when Jesus wants or lives to be over. You would be happy....not others.

It is back again, the Muslim Fascists are blowing up Christians left and right, and they love doing it. Thats a form of entertaiment, right? They both get to go to heaven. Its a win win!

Uh, if militant Islamic facists have their way, I think we'll have public execution-style deaths in America. Lions take too long.
