I'll just say both sides are screwed up.
But, I have been to Syria, Lebanon and Jordan, and never felt scared to be considered a Christian.

The author of the article is somewhat biased in her presentation, but the subject matter should in fact be recogbized for what it is.

For example, the Boko Ratan group in Nigeria do not only attack Christians. Far from it. They want to overthrow the government and put in place Sharia law. As with any coupe attempt, mass murder takes place.

Whereby an outsider would find these attacks disgusting, let's remember our own history.

Kill all Muslims or Kill All Muslims?

Footwedge;1080564 wrote:That is your opinion....an opinion I don't share at all. Let me repeat...there does exist a certain faction of Islam extremists that want to kill infidels...but the record is pretty clear internationally...this involves a tiny minority.

I am very sad to say....that there is also a similar small minority of my fellow Christians..who under tribal conditions, would commit the same atrocities.

Let me add this though...I strongly disagree with IWP regarding the substance of your OP. I think it's a subject worth discussing...even though the author is a renowned biased reporter against all things Islam.

isadore;1080567 wrote:That interesting, heck I might be doing the same thing if I was you and had Muslim relatives. But they do belong to a religion started by a leader who committed ethnic cleansing and mass murders. Well that is probably good for a fatwa.

isadore;1080580 wrote:There is a difference from the get go between Islam and Christianity or Budhism. We do not see the founders of these religions having men assassinated, using ethnic cleansing or genocide. We do the Muhammed. When Muslims look back at their founder they can find justification for their most violent acts.
