I agree. The only thing that has Islam beat is Christianity.
How so, Asclepias?
Its downright staggering the atrocities people have done in the name of Christianity. I thought everyone was aware of this.

Are you referring to the Crusades? The Dark ages? The Jews and Protestant Christians who were burned at the stake along with 150,000 witches in Europe? That was the Roman Catholic Church. Not evangelicals, not protestant Christians. Please site an mass murders commited by Protestant Christians on the same scale. I've never heard of a single incident in my life. Have you? Let us be clear Islam is not the greatest producer of genocide according to History. No that prize goes to Communism. Hands down. Still anti-semitism, racism is wrong wherever it is found. Thanks for answering my question. Much appreciated, Asceplias. - Jeri p.s. there were 27 people killed in the Witch trials in USA and it was the Christians who put an end to it because they said it opposed scripture to do such a thing. We focus on 27 people killed by a few misguided souls in america but forget the 150,000 killed over the accusation of being a witch in Europe. Why do people do this? What coult the possible motive to be to deflect such a thing. Any ideas?
This is Jeremiah's version of the con man's shell game.I was talking about Christianity in general. You are talking about a different sub group. I dont know what Protestants specifically have done but I will see if I can find out.

When you bring up mass murders, wars, and genocides that Christians have committed throughout history.
She will be quick to point out that her little group of fundies didn't do this or that.
And that the other Christians really aren't Christian according to her standards. .

This is actually pretty interesting. i remember learning about this in school but did not pay much attention to it. The thing that strikes me most is that the British empires formal religion is Protestant. The fact there is nothing reported tends to make me suspicious as Britain was an imperialistic power. I'll let you know what I find.
I already said my part.......modern Hebrew is an abortion when compared to ancient Hebrew. .If not, I'll go back to my Hebrew language thread. I noticed you didn't respond to the news about the man you quoted as having been responsible for restoring the language. I thought you'd be delighted to learn of it!

Thanks! I appreciate that, Asclepias. I didn't pay attention in school either. Don't feel bad.
The United States, while intending never to acquire lands from the Indians otherwise than peaceably, and with their free consent, are fully determined, in that manner, progressively, and in proportion as their growing population may require, to reclaim from the state of nature, and to bring into cultivation every portion of the territory contained within their acknowledged boundaries. In thus providing for the support of millions of civilized beings, they will not violate any dictate of justice or of humanity; for they will not only give to the few thousand savages scattered over that territory an ample equivalent for any right they may surrender, but will always leave them the possession of lands more than they can cultivate, and more than adequate to their subsistence, comfort, and enjoyment, by cultivation.

So far I have found out the Puritans were Protestant and they were responsible for the Salem Witch burnings, Manifest Destiny of the NA's and slavery here in the US. Thats a lot of blood already.

When it comes to religion and race, people hear what they want to hear and dismiss what does not fall within their beliefs. For example, it's commonly accepted among Christians that Islam teaches religious intolerant even thou the Qur'an makes it very clear that messengers of God are not to forcefully impose their teachings on the people but to guide them and ask them to accept God with their own will.Thanks!

According to the Historian David Barton there were 27 people killed during the Salem witch trials by Puritans. He teaches about this and the documentation / records are presented. It was a Christian that put an end to the witch trials by pointing out to the Puritans that it was against scripture to do what they were doing. It ended there.
Compare this to the Roman Catholic Church were approx 150,000 people were put to death as witches - and you can see why I mentioned earlier I find it amazing the world focuses on Salem without mention of the true witch hunt of the RCC in Europe. Again, the RCC knows today these men were wrong but in comparison history proves the Puritans ceased very quickly when presented with scripture that condemned what they had done. They had a day of repentance throughout the land at the news of it. See David Bartons teaching on that. It is excellent.
Again, the Jews are not a race.......they are people who are members of a religion.
