I just got word that 50,000 Christians are trapped in Sulawesi, Indonesia. The word is they are about to be massacred by Islamic extremist fanatics.

Those who do should pray. Those who don't - spread the word.

I am kind of skeptical about posts like this, Where are these 50,000 people being held? how are they planning on exterminating so many people all at once? do they plan a mass grave? or will they let the bodies rot...while it isnt impossible to execute 50,000 people, it is rather hard logisticly to round them all up...then you have to do soemthing with the bodies...I wouldnt get too upset untill there is more cooberative evidence.

Just listened to a UK Radio Newsreel and there was nothing about it at all.
Maybe it is just a rumour Yorick heard? I certainly hope so.
I, too, was wondering how 50,000 people could be held hostage/massacred...
