    Wasted post! Your original post proved that you don't get it. So, why bother posting the obvious?

    You presume that the savages are Muslims, but you don't perceive that our carjackers, home invaders, killers, rapists and robbers are "Christians"...

    I'm willing to bet you won't hear this on Fox "News," or any other corporate media for that matter...

    The same circumstances that inspired Christians in Lebanon to slice up the wombs of Muslim women and remove their festuses. You know, hatred, politics, ignorance...all that sort of stuff.

    No, we rightfully conclude that they are mostly Democrats.

    I thought we were talking about public denunciation, and not legal proceedings. As to Catholics, they'd rather be molesting kids than blowing things up.

    Interesting. I didn't see anything about that. Let's see if you can back that statement.

    According to an eyewitness account =
    Janet Lee Stevens, an American journalist, later wrote to her husband, Dr. Franklin Lamb, "I saw dead women in their houses with their skirts up to their waists and their legs spread apart; dozens of young men shot after being lined up against an alley wall; children with their throats slit, a pregnant woman with her stomach chopped open, her eyes still wide open, her blackened face silently screaming in horror; countless babies and toddlers who had been stabbed or ripped apart and who had been thrown into garbage piles."

    Oh no. The very Muslim Taliban takes the cake for that. It's not even seen as a bad thing to them.

    Even revolting abusive Catholic priests realize that they will spend eternity in the afterlife stuffed up the devil's ass. Muslim sects are bloodless enough to defend this, honor killings, and the beheading of non-extremists.

    You're such a nice bunch. When's your next bake sale?

    The Jews committed the first honor killings. It's Biblical.

    Let's talk about now. http://www.meforum.org/2646/worldwide-trends-in-honor-killings

    I would also back off of Israel if we're going to talk about all-time offenses; otherwise Islam owes Israel a lot more than 40 acres and a mule.

    It's already been established the savages are Muslims. And I agreed previously criminals come in many faiths. Pay attention.

    Its not a (*)(*)(*)(*)ing competition to see who can be the most inhumane!

    Anyway never met a Muslim who was offended by Christmas, has anyone on here ever met one, or is it just another made up persecution story by what appears to be increasingly paranoid Christians?

    I didn't start this 'competition'. I made a statement and the Christian bashers made it a competition. Pay attention.

    The answer is yes. I worked with one who always berating this woman for her lifestyle as he preached his Muslim hate of the west. The woman had to go to HR to deal with the slime-ball. This is the mosque he came from which is right up the street from where we worked......................

    MOSQUE FOUNDATION (MF)

    Mosque located in Bridgeview, Illinois, which has ties to the radical Muslim Brotherhood
    Has raised money for terrorist conspirator Sami al Arian
    Has raised money to honor the memory of Palestinian suicide bombers


    The Bridgeview, Illinois-based Mosque Foundation was formed in 1954 by 30 immigrant families from the Palestinian town of Beitunia, with the goal of someday building a mosque in the area. Nearly 20 years later, the Foundation acquired a plot of land for this purpose in Bridgeview, which is located just southwest of Chicago. The Mosque’s construction was completed in 1981, and the deed to the building was signed over to the North American Islamic Trust (NAIT), a Saudi-related extremist organization that actively seeks to take ownership of American mosques. (NAIT owns approximately 300 mosques across the United States.)

    The Bridgeview Mosque’s leadership is dominated by the Muslim Brotherhood -- the organization that spawned al Qaeda, Hamas, Egyptian Islamic Jihad, and Palestinian Islamic Jihad. According to Mosque Director Bassam Jody, most of the Mosque’s 24 directors belong to the Muslim American Society -- a group with strong ties to the Brotherhood.

    Sure. Over 700 years ago. Your moral equivalency, though outdated as it is, is duly noted.

    Nope. That's extremism, bigotry, intolerance....whatever you like to call it, it's wrong. Same is true of Christians who are offended by Muslims, and who constantly seek offence from Islam even when it isn't generally there among the overwhelming majority of Muslims. Judging Islam on that basis really is like judging Christianity on the basis of Westboro - it's taking one unrepresentative sample and generalising it to billions of people, which is just silly.

    People are people - most are actually pretty tolerant of people who are different, but a few of them aren't (and they often tend to be the ones shouting loudest, of course!) - that's not exclusive to any group, it's just people being people.

    When you can cite examples of Christian bigotry on the same level as Islam, get back to me.
