Radical muslim extremists, radical christian extremists, what's the
difference?


There's a huge difference, Harry.

There's a difference between the allegedly radical Muslim extremists who
set off the bombs in Boston and the radical christian extremists who
blow up abortion clinics and shoot abortion doctors?


You look at extremism in a different way than I. There's wacko's and
perverts out there, no doubt. But to me, that's not 'christian
extremism.'


If they say they are christians and are acting in hateful, extreme ways,
they sure as hell are no different than radical muslim extremists who
act the same way. Same, same.


If they 'say' they are Christians and don't act in a manner due to
Christ does that mean they 'are' Christians? I'm actually thinking
you believe so.


Really? Many self-described christians seem to interpret the teachings
of jesus to suit themselves or their various sects.


Obviously

Here's a minor interesting example of how christians treated a class of
people they considered witches:

*The following table lists current estimates of the number of Witches
killed in various countries during the Burning Times (1300-1800)

*This table does not include all estimates of the death toll. Older
and popular books often contain higher numbers because they're not
based on solid evidence.

Wow, medieval statistics with questionable accuracy.


You don't accept it on faith, eh? I find that...humorous, especially
since the "new testament" is simply a collection of tales selected and
edited centuries after the life of jesus. It's just a religious tome
with "questionable" accuracy, right?
