Muslims and Christians are very similar is all I'm saying. They did the same kind of stuff. Your big point is Muslims did it first...whatever. That was in 700 fucking AD wasn't it?

Now a days. Christians and Muslims continue to be very similar IMO. They just can't see it.

Yes, many Christians I know throw gays off of tall buildings, behead their enemies or drop them into the sea in a cage, and fly planes into their buildings. Someone really should stand up to them finally and stop this horror.

No, Christians never burned perceived heretics at the stake, quartered blasphemers, tortured Jews, tortured Christians, tortured Muslims, or persecuted anyone on unsubstantiated grounds that exceeded their over arcing governing ethics.

Yes, like I said, Christians are burning and quartering lots of heretics these days, it is especially horrible when they live-stream that crap.

Burning people alive -- for any reason -- is specifically forbidden in Quran. Just another clear example of how ISIL departs from the greater Islamic community.

[JurisDictum]

Christianity was founded in Rome, where law and order was established and Jesus was free to preach more specifically pacifist teachings (although only Eastern Orthodox and Quakers are the only real pacifists these days).

Islam couldn't ever been pacifist because it was created in an environment of dessert tribal warfare during the middle ages. Mohammad had to establish law and order himself to have any hope of creating the kind of society he envisioned.

But Islam does not promote expansion or killing anyone who isn't Muslim. The religion was traditionally used to establish law, order, and ethics. Just like any other religion, some have used it for their own political purposes...which lately has become anti-imperialism and this great imaginary battle between Islam and the West.

actually christian terrorism is pretty fucking extreme, last month christian extremists droped whats called a MOAB and also struck Syria with missiles launched from GIANT ships they extort their followers to pay for.

Someday we will have cleansed the middle east of all Muslims and Christianity will reign supreme once again like god intended.

Sorry but if you think Christians are free from terrorism, wake up, you're a fucking extremist the minuet you come out of the womb in america.

Basically my Muslim theological knowledge comes from this dude:

That and what I've read about history and political science.

I don't think theology is normally worth getting into unless you are a believer and you find fulfillment in such stuff. But a lot of people in America believe Islam has theologically incited violence (not simply modern politics). So I spent a little time poking around the academic circles to see what they think on the issue. Basically there is no reason to assume a Muslim population is more prone to violence; nevertheless, the circumstances of many Muslim countries are very dire. Therefore, Muslim states tend to be more violent in modern times. But that is no reason to get bigoted about it and blame the religion.

once world war 3 starts and it has nothing to do with the middle east all this "im worried about muslims" is going to feel pretty fucking stupid

Tell me how Islam expanded

Iran didn't invite the Arabs in. Since we're talking about history I don't remember the lesson where we welcomed the genocide of 300,000 civilians and the eradication of Zoroastrianism, a vastly superior religion
