Last week, President Obama at the Presidential Prayer Breakfast said that Islam as a religion cannot be blamed for the terror perpetrated by ISIL. In his talk, he claimed that Christianity has a checkered past of committing violence in the name of religion.

Really? At a time when Christians are being beheaded, crucified, and set afire by radical Islamists, the President reminds Christians of their past sins.

Christians have admitted their meas culpas. Maybe radical Islamists should be urged to do likewise.
