What religous clash?

Where are the stories of Christians attacking peaceful,defenseless Muslims in their homes and murdering them?There aren't any.

The news people slant Muslim -committed atrocities even when they cannot prevent telling of the occurrences.

It seems that Christianity in Africa has served to reduce inter-tribal rivalry whereas Islam (and Marxism) exacerbates it.

“I’ve said before that one of the great strengths of the United States is - although as I mentioned, we have a very large Christian population, we do not consider ourselves a Christian nation or a Jewish nation or a Muslim nation; we consider ourselves a nation of citizens who are bound by ideals and a set of values.” - Barack Obama

All the killing of Christians in Nigeria or elsewhere in the world by Muslims will all cease when the Cordoba mosque near Ground Zero will be inaugurated for jihadi terrorist action.

New York stuck on stupid.

When it’s islam killing, the headline is “die”, when a US drone kills known terrorists, it’s “killed”.

“Die” is a softer word to “kill”.

Just why is everyone always on mooslims? They are just doing what they do: murdering innocents and regaling in it. We must be inclusive and respectful for this central tenet of their “religion”: kill everyone who doesn’t act like me. mooslim credo: I love you. I kill you and your children. Boom! Slash! Chop!
