The War on Christmas comes to Ohio

Is that what the Islamist did? I do not follow Islamists. I follow God. I follow Jesus Christ.
The Islamist (Taliban) followed Hezekiah's example, they destroyed the "idols" or statues of Buddha, for the same reason that Hezekiah did. Would you support a Christian group, maybe even want to take part in destroying these "idols"? A yes or no response would be great, feel free to explain your answer, if you wish.
 

Yes

Oh how I love the Word of God!

Jesus does not tell us to do this. I follow God. I follow Jesus.
Hezekiah followed God through Isaac.
The Islamic religion is said to follow Abraham through Ishmael.

Why are you so contentious? I said I would like to be able to do what Hezekiah did. Hezekiah was a king and had the authority to do such a thing. I am not a king, and my King does not say to do that.

Contentious? No, just responding to your comment. This was a thread about Christmas and idolatry in Christmas and you said that you admired Hezekiah in destroying idols and wished you could do it. Hey, Jesus wasn't against violence; he cleared out the temple with a whip. I think it was a valid question.

Jesus is the King.
