text: Tell your pastor that Catholics were driven out and murdered for 250 years in Japan.   The faith passed on despite no priests...through baptism and marriage.   When missionaries returned after 250 years....some came forwarded after recognizing the priests crossing themselves..and said "there are 50,000 o of us here". 
  
  There is no shame in self-defense.  Your pastor should study Pearl Harbor...and the death that began from that point.   Brutal brutal people.  My uncle was a very refined man...eventually an Ambassador, high intellect, but he was a Marine infantry officer and saw the worst of it in WWII (close quarters, bayonets, eye gouging events)...and to the day he died he referred to them as "Japs". 
  
  Have your pastor read about the rape of Nanking.  Ask the Koreans.
