what the hell are you speaking approximately Martyrdom is the soul act of giving your existence on your faith and you assert that the Christians have lost the assumption of Martyrdom is absurd. In some strategies you're top ever because of fact the Church began in Roman circumstances whilst ever a missionary grow to be killed interior the middle East they have been at once declared martyrs yet that may no longer out of context with what the be conscious potential. absolutely everyone who's killed for his or her faith no rely what faith they're declared Martyrs.

In a sense, President Bush Jr. is a "Christian martyr" in the sense that he bases most of his decision-making on his religious, Christian out-look of the world. Based on his beliefs, Bush believes most other people are "Evil" and "Need to be saved" - and so he has launched America on this modern-day Crusade against terrorism and Saddam Hussein! In fact, he's already succeeded in killing Saddam Hussein.
In other words, Bush is sacrificing our peace, our national wealth, our relationship with other countries, our global image, and the lives of our youth, just to carry out actions which are based directly on his religious beliefs.
Need proof? He said: "I'm a war-president." Only a religious leader would refer to themselves as a "war-president." This displays the underlying will of our president to create wars and kill innocent lives just to serve the will of America - which, in his mind, is the "will of God."
So, Bush is a martyr for God, and is sacrificing America for such a cause. We are now involved in wars which were not necessary, and our national debt has risen extremely high.
Wars in the "name of God" are Bush's knack!

Christian martyrs?
Ha! That's the best oxymoron I've ever heard!
christians have KILLED more people in the history of humanity than any other group.
christians have persecuted millions of "non-believers" just because they DIDN'T believe in "christianity!
"religion is Spiritual fraud"; "religion is the Worse invention of humanity" - Jesus Christ
Create a private, personal, direct, divine relationship with Our Creator and save your Soul from religion.
Only with Our Creator's Love and Peace will we be Truely Free!
Without God, there is No Love; Without religion, there are No Wars!

Jesus didn't intend for anyone other than him to be a martyr, that's why he told his disciples to buy a sword.
Dead Christians spread no word.
