By Guled Mohamed[/div] [input value="13" name="CurrentSize" id="CurrentSize" type="hidden"] MOGADISHU (Reuters) - Somalia's Islamists whipped up religious fervour against Ethiopia on Monday, telling demonstrators God had commanded that they fight troops sent into the country by Addis Ababa to oppose their advance.[/p]"We are telling Ethiopia that we are ready to die," said Sheikh Mukhtar Robow, a senior Islamist in charge of defence.[/p][div class="pullQuote"][a href="jvascript:commonPopup%28%27/news/newsPhotoPresentation.aspx?type=worldNews&imageID=2006-07-24T144004Z_01_L24902902_RTRUKOP_0_PICTURE0.xml%27,%20560,%20535,%201%29"][img]vny!://i.today.reuters.co.uk/misc/genImage.aspx?uri=2006-07-24T144004Z_01_L24902902_RTRUKOP_2_PICTURE0.jpg&resize=w160" alt="" style="margin-bottom: 8px;" border="0" width="160"][/a][/div]"We've been commanded by God to fight you," he said at a rally of hundreds of mostly young men and a few veiled women at a football stadium in the Islamist-controlled capital.

Yeah, God is so great he's gonna start a war. Wonderful.
Not suprised. Anyone ever heard of the Lord's Resistance Army. Its rebel group of a bunch of Ugandan christians who kidnap and rape little kids and put them in there little 'army'. Boys and girls as young as 5 have been taught to fight. Oh and yeah they do it in the name of God.
It's not God that's bad. It's the ppl who preach the 'word' of God, who twist religion in the name of God..... these ppl should be burn in Hell for that.
Yeah. But for me coming back seems like sorry out of luck, for me. I just can't stand the preaching of hate. (again not my church (mostly, not been there because I'm ashamed mainly and its far away, don't feel like driving there and I don't want the questions asked) but the other churches, I see I don't like).
Th preachers of hate preach against God rather than for him - strange that they can't see it.
