"No force has been able to make men give the ultimate sacrifice, even for an evil cause, the hijackers of 911 knew what they where doing was pure evil, yet their faith allowed them to suppress the fear and they killed thousands whilst committing suicide, your afraid of that power, because all you see is this day and night." Be careful you don't "scare us" right into the "muslim haters" hands...get us "scared" enough, and we might just do something really irrational: like nuking Islam from existence... |

Xtians in their early days were little(if at all) better than Islamists, but Islam DID strike the first blow vs Xtianity. And regardless of either religion's behavior in bygone centuries, Xtianity has largely cleaned it's act up on a global scale, whereas 100s of gallons of blood are spilled EVERY DAY in the name of Islam. Demz the facts young fella. Last edited by Anon : 04-23-2006 at 12:09 PM. |

but i do agree that christianity has cleaned up it's act... although it's still pretty active around the world (missionaries and all), it has pretty much dropped the violent ways unlike Islam... |

Christianity began as a real religion of peace, became gradually corrupted by the absolute power of its leaders (after Justinian). And really took on a militant bent when 'christian' nations crusaded against a rising Islam. There's a lot more, of course, the explotation of the new world, the reformation and all that. Islam, however, began with conquests as soon as the Prophet had the military muscle to do so.
