"So what's your point? That Muslims should be judged by their worst members, and Christians judged by this noblest pronouncements?"

"That's a very good point that hasn't been answered. I do have my doubts about Islam though - I do think that it is a cancer. The silence of the Islamic community gives tacit approval of suicide bombers and terrorism."

Huh?? It's NOT a "good point"; It's an absurd analogy that does violence to proportional analyses and mathematics.

Comparative to the same ridiculous conclusion that leads one to accept the following as true: 1 = 1000.

But don't let me stop the two of you from watching al Jazeera while guzzling a six-pack of Kool-Ade; They'll also tell you Islam -- the "Religion of Peace" -- has been unfairly maligned, and it was Jews who masterminded 9/11....

Bottoms UP!

Maybe you should actually read and UNDERSTAND most post before commenting on it. You even included this part of my post when you quoted me:

I do have my doubts about Islam though - I do think that it is a cancer. The silence of the Islamic community gives tacit approval of suicide bombers and terrorism.

Now who is drinking the "Kool-Ade" ?

Since my point went totally over your head last time, I'll try to make it a little more simple this time. Like the original post said, there are many that want to judge others by the worst members, but Christians by their noblest pronouncements.

People who profess to be Christians don't exactly have a spotless record in history. Jim Jones comes to mind - so does the Spanish Inquisition. How about when Bruno was burned at the stake for believing that the Earth revolved around the sun? How about the witch hunts of the 17th century? The Branch Davidians? The molestation of boys by Catholic priests? The use of the bible to justify slavery?

Christianity isn't exactly lilly white. As I said, I believe Islam is a cancer but the point stands.
