Not A Big Help To The War Effort, Pal

Although I do admire his intestinal fortitude:

A retired priest committed suicide by setting himself on fire in a German monastery in protest at the spread of Islam and the Protestant Church’s inability to contain it.

Roland Weisselberg, 73, poured a can of petrol over his head and set light to himself in the grounds of the Augustine monastery in the eastern city of Erfurt, where Martin Luther spent six years as a monk at the beginning of the 16th century.

I know certain people will be disappointed that he didn't immolate himself in a mosque. Yanno, so they could gibber "CHRISTIANS DO IT TOO!!!!!!!!!"

1 He was old and got confused. He was suppose to set the Muslims on fire.

2 The words of General Patton come to mind "No bastard willing to die for his country ever won a war. Wars are won by the bastards who kill the other bastards willing to die for their country... Kill the enemy; make HIM die for his country."

Nevertheless, may this preachers soul rest in peace.

3 Remember the episode of South Park when Chef set a Buddhist munk on fire to protest racism? Well I wished Rev. Weisselberg had taken a page out of Chef's book and set a Mo-slime Imam on fire instead of burning his own good self.

6 The man followed the commandments of his leader.

"Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends." John 15:13

He set himself ablaze to shed light upon the creeping evil.

Let us honor him by not letting his sacrafice be in vain.

7 Set the world on fire. It will still signify nothing.

8 I'm sorry, the good reverent missed the lesson of Vietnames Buddhist monks setting themselves on fire: Make sure you have pictures. He should've set up a video camera to record his actions. There's no story without pictures anymore.
