When Jesus said, "love your enemies," was he talking about terrorists? Do we have to love them, too?

A new organization, Adopt a Terrorist for Prayer (ATFP), challenges us to pray for those who hate us and want to kill our families.

ATFP features a web site linking to information on terrorists, both wanted and detained.

ATFP is building a web site that can connect you with others who are praying for the same terrorist.

They become an "adoptive family" using social-networking tools to encourage one another, plan promotions, pray together, and arrange both actual and virtual prayer meetings.

The new non-profit organization wants to see half a million Americans praying for the salvation of their sworn enemies by this time next year. What do you think about it?

WWJD?
