Islam has a rather bloody history.

And so does Christianity.

The important Bloody history of Christianity is the redeeming blood of CHRIST.

When one tries to false equivalence between the flaws of mortal men MISUSING the name and nature of Christ with the evil bloody violence that is BAKED IN — PART AND PARCEL of the false religion called Islam, as you have here, you are displaying your ignorance of both Christianity and Islam.

When it comes to Christianity, that was long ago (religious wars, persecutions, etc.). Those days are gone.

But when it comes to Islam, the book is still open. The outrages are continuing to this very day. And they will continue to happen.

So it’s really not a fair comparison.

Islam’s bloody history outweighs Christianity’s by many orders of magnitude.

People forget the Popes who rode at the head of armies.

Turkic peoples are from Kazakhstan-Mongolia area, genocidal invaders and colonial occupiers of Anatolia. Send them back.

Christ never said to wage war. Doing so “in His name” is a misrepresentation. Islam, on the other hand ...

That is blatantly false equivalence.

If you're thinking of the Crusades, there is a huge difference between Islam invading and conquering many lands and the Christian countries who banded together to take them back.

There is a huge moral difference between a man who engages in violence to attack someone unprovoked, and the subject of that attack using violence to defend himself. Immoral people, however, always try to equate the two.
