A gloabl community views this not as an attack on Jesus Christ or an attack on the Christian Church but rather as an attack on the freedom of spirituality and religion, living and life which Jesus Christ and the Christian Church seek to bring.

In which case, please count me out of this 'global community'.

Rather, I'll take Jesus' own words, such as "If they hated me, they will hate you for loving me" and "You will be persecuted by all nations for my name's sake".

These men did not die for the sake of a 'global community', and they were not killed because they preached such a concept. They died for the Gospel and their love of Christ.

To try to co-opt this event as a soapbox for 'religious inclusion' is inane. NT parallels are the best, because those NT believers stood by each other in persecutions and the injustices they suffered at the hands of non-believers. They knew it was an 'us and them' reality, but instead of responding with revenge to injustice, they did so with love and a firm declaration of the Gospel.
