In a certain sense it is true: the dividing line between good and evil is not between one group and another; rather, it is within every human heart.

Some groups have advanced beyond beheading. This whole “we’re no better than they are” line is a pile of crap. Period.

They even go back further like 700 years to compare Christianity and the Crusades. Different era different times different culture. Islam is still in the 6th. century.

Just more proof that the real enemy is multiculturism. We’ll never get to fight the Islamists on their terms until the multiculturalists are first beheaded by the Islamists.

These Islamic beheadings could be caused by climate change.

The liberals seem to return again and again, to what happened in medieval Europe, to find examples of Christian savagery. We hear about the Crusades, inquisitions, burning people at the stake, etc. as examples of the utter cruelty of Christianity. Of how evil was done in the name of Christianity, etc.

What is lacking are modern day examples of this.

Honestly, almost every time I read something by a college professor, I am appalled at the absolute ignorance and sophistry they spew.

Anyone who goes to college for a non-technical course of study is absolutely going to be stupider when they come out than they went in.

The government needs to stop financing college educations and giving money to colleges.

So, because some non-muslims committed atrocities hundreds of years ago, that means that all successive generations are prohibited from expressing outrage over the barbaric acts of Islam today, and for the remainder of recorded history?

So are you agreeing that what happened in the Crusades over a thousand years ago is okay for Islam to be murdering people all over the world in the name of Islam today? Or are you just being rhetorical?

The Jihadi's and the good professor will do well to know that Western Man has since graduated to killing on an industrial scale.

We are the most effective killers in the history of mankind.

And while not keen to do so, we can pull out that bag of tricks again.
