October 31, 1517 is when Martin Luther nailed his 95 thesis on the church door in Germany.
it goes back much farther than 1517,by ad 900,if not earlier,Islam was in control of a world that spread from the Pyrenees mountains in northern Spain to the western border of India.they only stopped their expansion when faced with overwhelming force.the response of the Crusades wasnt more than a flea bite on the rest of the Islamic world,who had to be stopped again later at the gates of Vienna.their eastward expansion eventually took them to Indonesia and western China.i dont like religious disputes,but it seems that we,as americans,are in one.
just kill em all
