You've claimed in the past that I've disrespected Christianity -- a
claim that I completely disagree with -- so I wanted to respond to
your statement. And let me start by you saying "I guess that means
I'm a scumbag in your eyes" is actually offensive to me, with the
implication that I would consider that someone who disagrees with me
is a scumbag. However, it's not a big deal, because lots of people
offend me in far worse ways, so it's OK.

But I want to do is challenge your deeply held Christian values. The
following situation is very real, except that I don't know what the
exact numbers are. So the numbers are not exact, but the rest of the
situation I'm describing is real:

Suppose you're the President and you're told that you can kill
al-Assad and if you do, then thousands of Christians will die, but
you'll save the lives of millions of Muslims. What's the moral,
Christian thing to do? Which are more important -- the lives of
thousands of Christians, or the lives of millions of Muslims?

And if you're president, then you have to decide -- kill al-Assad or
not kill al-Assad. Issue your order, Mr. President!
