Sara May Allah give you long life and keep you firm in truth

Funny how we talk about Islamic threat, whereas Christians have killed more innocent people in the last 100 years alone, than Muslims ever did in their entire history. Over a million dead in Iraq and Afghanistan as a direct result of Christian invasion, the Holocaust, WWI, WWII, Apartheid South Africa, Colonialism, Slavery, ethnic cleansing of the Americas, torture in Abu Ghuraib, I can go on and on, this is ALL BY CHRISTIANS.

@Nejiboud I would argue these are Secularists, not Christians or Jews

@CyprusHot

The "Prince of Peace" obviously has not entered your being, otherwise your soul would not impart such hostile and violent words. BTW, don't talk about things you don't understand. Think about this: Isaac was 40 years old when he married Rebecca, who was 3 at the time. Do you even know what all is in the Bible?

[CyprusHot]

@Nejiboud This is a fallacy. In an attempt to lessen the importance of Islamic crimes, you refer to crimes not committed by Muslims. So your reply is actually a shot against your own argument. Yes the Prince of Peace is the best, Jesus is mentioned more time in the Quran than Muhammed, that paedophile that had sex with a 9 year old girl. Prince of Peace will always win over your demonic fake prophet that killed innocent Jewish men and boys.

@CyprusHot

Yes, and all of that which you stated is minuscule as when compared to Christian conduct. What happened to following in the "Prince of Peace"?

[CyprusHot]

@Nejiboud This is really bad. The Muslims (sunnis and shias ) have killed each other in the thousands (over 100,000) since when Muhammed died, Muslims have also killed over 3 million christians by the Ottoman Turks, they killed over 5,000 christians in cyprus over a period of 200 years, they have killed millions of hindus, the pakistani government killed over 1 million bengalis after 1955, I CAN GO ON AND ON, THIS IS ALL BY MUSLIMS.

@LuluRosenkrantz

Islam DID contribute immensely to the West and got you out of the Dark Ages, from the very simple commodities like sugar and coffee and citrus and paper to advanced sciences and transmission of Greek philosophy to Europe.

@elsblaugranas

Of course, I get your point, my point was to point out the conscious amputation of actual deeds from the self-perception of "Christians" and Westerners. Just take one look at even people who are supposedly anti-war, they'll always talk about how "our soldiers are dying", but never mention the countless civilians who have died over there, because they don't value lives equally, and then they dare call other people barbaric.

[elsblaugranas]

@Nejiboud lol I see your point but don't BS...Ottoman Turkish muslims killed over 1.5 million Armenians in 1915. That's one of many crimes committed by muslims (more recent example being Darfur where hundreds of thousands have been killed and others displaced). You're right about the crimes committed (mostly by European Christian nations), but that doesn't make muslim crimes "halal" (no pun intended).

mfw this woman proves that political islam is good and women shouldn't participate in politics -_-
