  1. +Mia Subject your comment to a search-replace of "Quran" and "Muslim" with "Bible" and "Christian" and you're right again. What does that say?

  2. ***** Old Testament or New Testament, the same God's still in the picture. His hippy son paid for our sins, but where does it say that he wiped his dad's slate clean, too? There's no statute of limitations on crimes against humanity, right? And so as not to be called a hypocrite, remember also to hate on the Jews.

  3. ***** The hippy didn't stop his followers from being violent in his name. Do the Crusades ring a bell? It's not ancient history either. In this day and age, we can pride ourselves on the Lord's Resistance Army.

  4. ***** The Crusades had more to do with the internal politics of Christendom than with the Muslim world. Of course, the alleged wrongdoings of the latter served as a convenient rallying cry for Christian fanatics. One thousand years later, it still seems to work on you -- so much for human civilisation!  If you're referring to Timur the Lame, he cleverly used his supposed Islamic credentials to legitimise his blood-soaked conquests. His pagan ancestor Genghis Khan made no such claims when he founded the Mongol Empire, which Timur sought to restore. Same difference.
