I lived two years in Iran during the fall of the Shah and the rise of Khomeini. I understand the difference between Sunni and Shi'a and religious tolerance and oppression.

Like I said, put up a thread in religion forum, lay out your points one by one on how there is a comparison between Islam and Christianity. Or don’t you have the guts?

You keep beating this hobby horse. Why? I am an Episcopalian who was even an altar boy. I really have no interest in getting involved in a comparative religion discussion. I took that course in college a long time ago. If you want a good intellectual discussion of religion, start with someone like Joseph Campbell. In any event, I am weary of this conversation, which has gone from the sublime to the inane. Cheers.

The fall of the Shah was due to Jimmy Carter toppling the Shah on the mere “promise” by Khomenei to ‘hold elections.’

And do you also recall the bloodbath afterwards where Khomenei had people killed?
Of course not.

You keep insisting there is a comparison between Christianity and Islam.
If you were honest, you’d see there is none.
