I guess any excuse for murdering every man, women, and child is a good excuse. Their mere beliefs, thoughts, and understandings, no matter how twisted they may be, is also an excuse for the massacre of over 150 Americans! Christianity had nothing to do with the murder of these people, only in the fact that they were practicing what they all believed to be a Christian faith.
Shouldn't that be "Their mere beliefs, thoughts, and understandings, no matter how twisted they may be, is also NOT an excuse for the massacre of over 150 Americans!"
