In the last 1000 years there has been 15 or more christain crusades into muslim territories opposed to the few the muslims started. Napoleon was christian, nazis had close ties to the catholic church, both whom tried to take over the world. England who conquered 25% of the world is christian. Pinochet, Nicolae Ceausescu, Mussolini, Porfirio Diaz, along with alot more are all christain dictators. Dont forget the hundreds of thousands of mesoamericans who got decapitated for not converting to christianity. The KKK was a predominantly christian organization. It seems to me you spend your time dissing Islam while ignoring Christianities tendancy to be as violent as your trying to depict Islam. And dont act like Islamic culture hasnt contributed to civilization they are the founders of what we now call capitalism.

This is an excellent post and very true....

I WOULD argue that in recent years the Muslim extremists are the ones doing the instigating when it comes to global conflicts, however people act like WW2 was some lifetime ago, but in the grand scheme of things it really wasn't long ago and that certainly wasn't a Muslim war.


I still feel that overall religion does more good than bad....But plenty of evil has been done in the name of religion. Christian, Muslim, Jewish etc etc...They all have blood on their hands.
