That's a complete non sequitur, given that the usual argument a Christian basher makes starts with the Inquisition example and then works forward in history to Eric Rudolph and his abortionist-murdering pals. So it isn't 'hardly' Christian bashing, it is Christian bashing, straight-up and direct.

So criticizing the Spanish Inquisition and criticizing the terrorist Eric Rudolph is "Christian-bashing"? Come on...

Please understand that I'm not saying Christianity is inherently anti-Semetic (or pro-terrorist, etc.). Nor am I saying that all Christians are anti-Semites, terrorists, etc. I am saying that Christians (self-proclaimed Christians at least) have been terrorizing Jews since before the crusades and some (David Duke, for example) continue to do so today. That's not Chritian bashing.

You can try to dodge it, but the thematic undertones of your posts are clear. Eric Rudolph's name is typically invoked by people who want to equate the scourge of thousands of Muslim terrorists with the relatively insignificant non-threat of the one Christian terrorist they can think of. It's one of those "b-b-but Christians are just as likely to commit violence as Muslims" things.
