It amazes me how many leftists try to compare a handful of abortion clinic bombings in the early 90s to 911 and then insist that Christians have "the same kind of radical terrorists" as muslims
Obviously, there's a lot to this story that's still unclear. What we do know is that some members of Egypt's sometimes-raucous, often rumor-heavy media have been playing highly offensive clips from the highly offensive film, stressing its U.S. and Coptic connections. In the clip below, controversial TV host Sheikh Khaled Abdallah (known for such statements as "Iran is more dangerous to us than the Jews" and that Tehran had engineered a deadly soccer riot in Port Said) hypes the film as an American-Coptic plot and introduces what he says is its opening scene.
Hate to break it to you, but there were abortion clinic bombings in the last decade and many other forms of Christian terrorism as well. Hell, there was a whole mess of bombings sometime around 02-03.It amazes me how many leftists try to compare a handful of abortion clinic bombings in the early 90s to 911 and then insist that Christians have "the same kind of radical terrorists" as muslims
Why is Christian terrorism compared to Muslim terrorism? Oh I don't know, could it possibly be that Christians have committed terrorist acts far more often than Muslims?

And your total death count from all such attacks is what?
what is the death count of the single most deadly incident of christian terrorism you know?
I say we withdraw all government personnel and foreign aid payouts to foreign countries, especially in the middle east, including Israel.
I know of two continents who had their populations wiped out by "christians".
The Jewish Carpenter Jesus philosophies have been ignored by his followers who have spent much of the past two millenniums, killing and torturing, enslaving, and ruining people around the world.
I guessed they missed his love thy enemy advice and turn the other cheek etc.

which continents ?
If we were standing beside one another, you would get a HIGH 5 from me!--I agree, agree, agree. I have had this view for many years.
likewise I can name a continent and a subcontinent who were subjagated by muslims, several contients enslaved by pagans, and areas that were subject to terrible atrocities by people who practiced an agnostic form of spirtualism. the last one I can give examples in this century. if we go back to the beginning of time We can find everyone was guilty of something. So starting the clock at the year 1900. what are your best examples?
Also when using examples of religious terrorism, it also stands that you have to show a connection between that religion and the act, specifically, one must be able to show that the terrorist act in question was commited to further the religious philosophy of the actor or that the actor acted directly because of his/particular faith.
Foreign involvement is ridiculous especially while our own country can't pull the rafter out of it's own eye before plucking straws......
Besides being that you are now changing the parameters of what I originally posted against.
Oh I see so two wrongs make a right. I condemn all religious fanaticism and terrorism. Do you really think Islamic belief is the cause of the terror? It's politics and big money, they get their followers riled up using religion. Just like Conquistador and European fortune seekers used the name of religion to conquer and take what is not theirs.
And I don't really care what time from that it occurs in, does that really matter?
Have you heard of Boarding schools? Have you any native american friends? Ask them about the horrors and scars inflicted to indegenous folks in the name of religion. The wholesale destruction of their religion and culture that continues to this day.
How many blacks were lynched in this country by white "Christians" this was designed to terrorize a segment of population. The KKK claims to be a christian group.
How about the Catholic leaders who were Nazi's Heinriech Himmler, considered by some to be the mastermind behind the holocaust
.You want to denounce one religion over the other and rationalize that since Islamic acts are more modern they are worse. That is hypocrisy and why I am agnostic and am not for any organized religion. They all are equally bad in my eyes
Isolationism is not possible in the modern world. it simply isn't.
Now, I clearly stated in the last century on my first post
No, I'm stating the simple truth in that levels of violence amonst different groups, and especially since most religions have reconciled with the modern world.
Well I would says wars that took place 800 years ago are not on the forefront of my mind right now, on the other hand the violence and hostility tied to people who are alive now is certainly relevant.
Which was done for political reasons of disbanding native tribes so that Europeans could settle the landscape. It most certainly was not done "in the name of religion" religous schools were used as religious schools were the primary form of education in that time period, secular public education didn't become mainstream until the turn of the century. If you are so heavily opposed to that and wish to hold grudges how about you move to Europe?
Do you know why that trick doesn't work on me? becuase I am part native, and I have researched the history of the tribe that makes up a small part of my lineage, and they were real jackasses. blood sport, killing other tribes members as tributes, mass rapes, etc. the natives were far from innocent noble people who were extirminated by the evil white man
No, they don't. The first clan never claimed an official religion, the second klan embraced a form of christianity to unite farmers and protestant workers against Jews and Catholics. the current KKK is an umbrella of "white nationalist" organizations who believe a wide variety of things. Some White nationalist groups have taken a version of bible commentary by a racialist group called "The Kingdom Identification Ministries" which claims certain parts of the bible contain code that says blacks were created by satan, but that's a reading commentary of the old testament and not the new. It's not uncommon to see white nationalists embrace spirtual earth based pagan beliefs similar to the Druids of the celtic world (which is where the clan robes originate from) to say that the KKK is a purely christian organization is misleading. the klan was never a religous fraternity, they have been a white nationalist group. to answer your question, *MAYBE* 3000 people, over a period of 100 years. with most occuring prior to the turn of the century. i'll flip that back on you, how many christians were kille fighting on the union side to free the slaves?
Having read a full authoritative biography of Himmler for a school project, Himmler grew up catholic, but he became more and more critical of christianity by the time he was working in the Hitler administration. did he politically support the church? yeah, but what was the Vatican supposed to do about that? they were sitting in the middle of facist italy, can ya blame them for not being uppity? and again, hundreds of thousands of catholics in France, from the Canada, the United States, etc died in that war to stop people like Himmler. so nice try there. like the WNs mentioned above, Hitler himself praised islam and the spiritual paganism of the japanese, calling christianity the "wrong religion" for germany to Albert Speer. but nice try attempting to pin the holucaust on christians.
No I'm stating the simple truth that in the modern world radical islam is far more dangerous then any other religious philisophy prevelant in today's world. that is an educated opinion based upon a serious study of the subject.
