Which christian soldier was it that woke Sitting Bull and shot him for being a fomentor of violence?

"One who, like Sitting Bull, believed it essential to protect those and that which filled his heart."\n- This answer baffles me. Is he saying that the US Army was protecting themselves when slaughtering the Lakota?\n\nAs for the Christian soldier, I think his name was Biff Johnson. Or some stupid name like that.

Other than Jesus of course, I would say the very opposite type of person.  Adolph Hitler did lots of damage.

One I enjoyed reading was "Foxes Book of Martyrs." It's a history of people who were martyred for the faith.  It provides some historical context, but most of all it tells personal stories of people who had deep convictions about what it means to be a Christian.

A dead Mormon.\n\nParley Parker Pratt (12 April 1807–13 May 1857) (commonly known as Parley P. Pratt) was a leader in the Latter Day Saint movement and an original member of The Quorum of Twelve Apostles from 1835 until his murder in 1857

Cleveland Williams perhaps.  I remember he was shot pretty bad by a cop in Texas.  He returned to the ring after that incident but he was never the same

Oh yeah, all day long!\n\nCheck out Saul/Paul's story. He was killing and persecuting and stuff and as soon as Jesus showed up he was like, "Oh, I guess they ARE right."\n\nAnd then he was a longwinded lamb 'til Nero chopped off his head.\n\nThen, there was this guy I loved in college...

Actually, you refer to a Christian politician in Lebanon.  He was murdered because he does not support Syria.

I've always wonder about that myself.  Technically speaking, 'murder' means to kill someone with intent and with premeditation.  Soldiers are certainly killing with intent, and they are also going into battle with the foreknowledge that they will have to kill.  So, regardless of whether your version of the Bible says 'thou shall not kill' or 'thou shall not murder', the act of killing in war breaks this commandment. I mean, could you picture Jesus picking up an M-16, shooting an enemy to death, and then saying that it is 'OK because I killed in the context of war'?  It just doesn't seem like his style.  In fact, it contradicts everything that he taught.

There's the story of the beheaded Baptist. It goes something like this, a preacher was late for services at a rural church one Sunday. the congregation waited and eventually decided to go look for him. At just that time they heard a knock at the door and there stood the preacher without his head. They went looking for his head and found it next to some RR tracks where he had fallen out of his buggy and the train lopped it off. I usually round this up with extras like a little drinking etc. and set it near the locale where I tell the story.

Hitler, as history has shown.\n\nJesus was a very liberal, open-minded guy. It's his modern day, rabid followers who have twisted his message & seek to restrict personal freedoms. \n\nIn all likelihood, Jesus would be dumb-founded by what's been done in His name.

Jesus the Christ. He was mocked, whipped and slain, all for our salvation. He is a true hero.
