Subject: RE: BS: Onward Christian Soldiers
"Onward Christian Soldiers makes no reference to guns."

That's up there with The Krays were kind to their Mum.

If madrassas had children of Muslim parents singing about "marching into war" with Allah as their right, leading against the foe and other disgusting rhetoric, so called Christians would be the first to start bleating.

"Onward Christian Soldiers" was something we sang as children in school. When I was old enough to understand what I singing, that song nauseated me and still does. When you drive west out of Wakefield you still see the sign "home of Onward Christian Soldiers". Ironically, one sign is straight outside a local mosque. Dontcha luv irony?
