Sure they bombed a church but they set off 7 other bombs as well..
Sri Lanka's population practices a variety of religions. As of the 2011 census 70.2% of Sri Lankans were Theravada Buddhists, 12.6% were Christians, 9.7% were Hindus and 7.4% Muslim and 0.1% other .
See that 12% of people in Sri Lanka are Christian... Meaning claiming it was all Christians who were attacked would be pretty fucking stupid and insulting for the majority of people in that country..
However you can't take 2 seconds to look up the religious make up of the country, you have to cry because Hillary & Obama said "words"...

No one is claiming that only Christians are dead, this was an attack primarily against the "infidels", westerners and christians alike, local buddhists hit are not part of the primary target even though also infidels in the eyes of these Muslims.
Further more Sri Lanka is a tourist hot spot and well-off westerners usually pick the luxury hotels.

The other hotels targeted include the Shangri-La and the Kingsbury, both of which are also popular with tourists visiting the country.
Other blasts were reported at St Anthony's Shrine in Colombo, St. Sebastian's Church in Negombo, a majority-Catholic town, and at Zion Church in the eastern town of Batticalo.
