I hope this is not taken as a 'political' post. There is no intention that it be political. I
received the link in an email and thought it was pretty scary.

People practicing their religion is scary to you? Better not go to a
church in the U.S. then!

I find all fundamentalism very scary. I don't find these wackos any
scarier than born again Christians.

What's scary is that these folks block access to business, streets, homes, etc,, and the law is
afraid to do anything.

In your example, the law took action - arresting those who infringed on the rights of others. That
is quite appropriate. Note also that the Catholics haven't killed anyone over the blasphemy.


Catholics haven't killed anyone over blasphemy?
Not much of a student of history, hey, John?


Learn to read, then learn to quote.

You seem to take great pleasure in putting your ignorance on display.


History is a continuum.

Islam did not grow by the word it grew by the sword.


You mean, like christianity in south and central america?

You should do some research before you stick your foot in your mouth,
again. Check out the history of the Iberian peninsula before using them
as an example for your argument.


Are you referring to the Spanish Inquisition, a long period of religious
horror inflicted by the Catholic Spaniards on some of the peoples of
Europe and Central and South America? :)

No, I am not referring to the Spanish Inquisition. Go back and read the
history of the Iberian peninsula.

European history is resplendent with examples of blood spilled over the
efforts of "christians" to find the one true faith.

Europe is resplendent with invasion and incursion and subjugation by the
sword throughout its history. In fact the world knows the sword as the
means of keeping populations under control.
