Ah yes, the old moral equivalency argument. Think back, Kack. The Crusades ended 500 years ago. So did the Inquisition. And the IRA was less about religion than it was about political power.

Meanwhile, every new day brings another muslime atrocity.

So your comparison, while trite and shopworn, is also specious.

I guess you can say that, if that is how you see it. This is however not trying to justify the Muslims in any way, they are no doubt the most barbaric of any; murdering in the name of their Prophet Mohammed.

The Inquisition and The Crusades show a religious slant of Catholicism that is what cost millions their lives, based on their perception that God wanted people to convert....but wasn’t it greed and evil, not God? The Spanish Inquisition was later, and the Moors not the origin of the Inquisitions.

Many want to rewrite history instead of accepting the failures of man and his distorted view of Christianity. If there is no ‘live and let live’ in worship and faith, then there is no freedom, period.
