I read this message board and a few others and there are outright attacks on Christians (not so much here) with things like "crazy faith" and rude remarks being made towards the faith and the people who believe.
On these same message boards, neither the Muslim faith nor the jihadi movement are attacked or even mentioned. My question is, why the disconnect? If Christians are so crazy in thinking there will be an "end times" why aren't the Muslims in thinking that all who do not believe should die (oddly enough, Christians don't believe this). I'd like to keep this as clean and friendly as possible. Please no "Christians are dumb", etc. -------------------- "There is a level of cowardice lower than that of the conformist: that of the fashionable non-conformist." |

Let's look at Nazi's and Aryan Brotherhood and other White supremacy groups. They're acting in the name of God and Jesus.
I'm sorry, Jonathan, but Muslims don't have a monopoly on the terrorist bit. --------------------  |

Luckily, right now, in the present, we are a much more educated people. Once that changes (and it could), christianity will be just as bad. The past is a good example of a time when people weren't as widely educated and did horrible things because of religion that they might have not done otherwise. Exorcisms. Witch Burnings. Oppression of women. All these things and some could argue worse, than what muslims have done currently. To make a long story short, education is good. Christianity = islam. Both can be good. Both can be bad. --------------------  QUOTE (jonathan83 @ Nov 16 2007, 09:22 PM) |
