Muslim sects

There they go again, killing each other. I suppose many Christians relax a little, relieved that as long as they are killing each other, they aren't killing us. I could have some of that weakness myself. But it is a weakness. It is really a terrible thing that the Muslims are killing each other. We don't want them to kill us, or the Jews, but we definitely don't want Muslims to kill each other either. They are, after all, children of God, made in His image, worthy of the ultimate respect that one can give to any creature. All Christians are saddened when Muslims kill each other. There is plenty of blame on both sides of the conflict, but it could end if both sides were determined to end it. As a Christian I cannot take sides in the sectarian conflict, but I can plead with both sides to stop killing each other. You are not pleasing God when you kill people, any people, for we are also in the image of God, as are the Jews. That sectarian difference goes back to the 7th century AD. For 1400 years killing each other has solved nothing. Why not shame each other by trying to do the most good to the other? I cannot predict that such a movement will solve your problems, but isn't it worth trying? At least you won't be killing your fellow Muslims then.
