ISIS Going to Blow up my Church Here in Buna???????

 So, there has been a threat by ISIS to blow-up, attack, shoot up East Texas churches. 

As a matter of fact several sheriff's offices have issued warnings about the threats made by ISIS. 

Do I think ISIS will attack a church? 

No. 

I would be more afraid of other people attacking churches rather than ISIS.

ISIS is a Sunni jihadist organization, specifically following an extreme interpretation of the Salafi branch of Sunni Islam....(Salafism is very conservative, that seeks to return to the practices of the first three generations of Muslims ("pious ancestors"). It emphasizes strict monotheism, rejects religious innovations (bid'ah), and rejects traditional legal school (madhhab) adherence in favor of direct scriptural interpretation. 

. They are not Shia Muslims and view Shiites as apostates, heretics, targeting them for violence, while also attacking Sunni Muslims who do not share their extremist ideology

 Iran is of Shia faith. I would be more afraid of a Shia Iran lead group than a Sunni group. We are bombing the Shias in Iran, not the Sunnis. 

I would  be more afraid of some local nut-job either a racist or a person with a bone to pick with the Baptists, or Methodists, Catholics, etc and that sadly, in 2026, it is a concern for every Sunday, Wednesday night " Prayer Meeting." 

Then again....I watch my surrounding in the hardware store, grocery, dollar stores....Then again, I generally carry a revolver wherever I go. ( Spies and assassins always carry revolvers, think about why?)

Do a little research people, learn the different branches of Islam. 

Don't panic, go to church this morning. Talk to Jesus, just be aware of your surroundings....If something doesn't look right, you might consider leaving....
