Easter Bombings in Sri Lanka

As worshipers gathered on Sunday at Roman Catholic churches across Sri Lanka to celebrate Easter Mass, the culmination of Holy Week, a wave of explosions rocked the congregations.

At about 8:45 a.m., at least eight bombing attacks struck at least three churches, along with three five-star hotels favored by foreigners, killing more than 200 people, in what the police said had been a coordinated attack.

Violence against the defenseless is never honorable. Always shameful.

Is it biblical? Is it Christlike? Is it loving? Is it true? How can I find out?
