2007-2-4 . u' l0 J" F- v0 U$ z澳大利亚悉尼市的一所浸信会教堂近日贴出标语称:「耶稣爱奥萨马」,澳大利亚总理霍华德对此表示谴责。 ' O& [8 h9 S8 j0 P% ?9 y0 y
据中新网2月4日电,标语中的「奥萨马」即指「基地」组织头目本-拉登。该标语原意是要传达基督的宽恕之心,但却在澳大利亚全国引发轩然大波。标语下方还有一行援引自《马太福音》的小字:「爱你的敌人,为迫害你的人祈祷。」 8 x* F; ] L9 p# u! m3 w; ?0 G8 F: _
澳大利亚总理霍华德认为,教堂本应选择一种不令人生厌的方式来传达这一信息。他说:「我能理解教堂做法的动机。但是我希望他们能够知道,许多澳大利亚人,包括澳大利亚基督教徒,会认为这种情况下这样做是不合适的。」& S c) m6 u2 u7 _6 f* s

英国国教悉尼地区大主教皮特-简森表示,这一标语扰乱视听并且在某种程度上是无礼的。他说:「该标语中确实有真理。但是,我们想说的是,‘耶稣决不会赞同奥萨马’。这条标语听起来象是说‘哦,拉登做的是对的’。」 8 c3 S, @9 B" j9 F8 E1 b3 _( y2 b, w8 S3 u: P, ]* z
对于各种批评声,教堂发言人表示,他们仅仅是想「分享福音」。他说,拉登是恐怖主义首领。但他们要表达的是耶稣基督爱世上每一个人,甚至也包括拉登。 % P9 Y* ^7 P4 m4 V5 q1 F% o& y- J$ r1 j3 E; q

JESUS does indeed love Osama bin Laden, but a controversial Sydney church sign saying so is misleading, says Anglican Archbishop Peter Jensen. $ u/ u5 x4 G/ r# ?4 U8 U/ ?; i* _( H2 ]6 W( u' G4 ^
The sign "Jesus Loves Osama" outside a number of local churches, including some Anglican, also features a Bible extract saying, "love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you". * s' V( V; J! m! ^& ^ `; i/ J" B- k
Archbishop Jensen said he had not been involved in any decision to display the signs and had reservations about them. ! i/ u5 n" j# J2 l/ Y1 z x+ g# P- U2 w9 P9 V9 V U
