They were not. Again, the captain/owner of the yacht was a graduate of Fuller Seminary in Pasadena, CA, and he had even taught there on a part time basis before retiring to the sea.
The whole thread got off track because Toothseeker couldn't wait to imagine sending somebody to hell.

The Christian response to the murder of those Americans should be a response grounded in prevention. Our actions should further peace and stability in the region so that no one else dies a violent death at the hands of pirates.
The Christian response is an ACTIVE response.

You are correct about the "response." I'm just afraid that given the state of things right now, there will be no response at all.
