CBS Poll: Most Democrats Think Christianity Is as Violent as Islam
Townhall ^ | February 6, 2017 | Justin Holcomb

Only one-in-seven registered Democrats in America believe that Islam is more violent as a whole than Christianity, according to a new CBS poll.

Catastrophes such as September 11th, the War on Terror, and recent attacks throughout the world were not enough to make a difference between Christianity and Islam for some.  ISIS, Al-Qaeda, and the Taliban were also overwritten.

Republicans had a much different perspective on the matter however.  Over six-in-ten believe that Islam is more violent in nature than other religions.

It appears my assessment of the Dem9crat Party is correct. They are Evil and their feelings show they do not know what Jesup calls on Christians to live and do.

The don’t know that Christ in the New Testament is the fulfillment of the law and works through forgiveness, healing and peace.

Historically, sure it’s true. Plus, there’s far more Christians today than there are Muslims, so I guess that means Christianity is more violent on a per-capita basis, historically.

That said, I’m not presently worried a Methodist is going to drive a truck through a holiday crowd in Germany. I don’t think that’s what the questioners meant.

Especially the Amish. Suspenders wearing, buggy driving, butter churning, barn raising Amish terrorists. They need extreme vetting and placed on no fly lists./extreme sarc

That’s right. In order for this poll to have any credibility, I want to see provenance that democrats are capable of thought.

I don’t know why this should surprise anyone. They’ve been teaching this viewpoint in school textbooks for 20 or more years.

Those darned Christians want to dictate to democrats how they should live.

They want to stop them from exercising their rights to kill unwanted babies.

They want to bar them from having sex with children and stop adult men from using the little girls toilet rooms.

Christians frown on homosexuality, cross dressers, and animalists.

No wonder Democrats are driven to their safe rooms by such hate.

/sarcasm off

First, why even conduct such a poll if the goal isn’t to promote Islam? Second, there aren’t seven verses in the Bible that state Christians are to kill non-Christians and those who won’t convert to Christianity, while there are seven verses in the cultist Quran that state non-muslims should be put to death, as well as those who won’t convert to Islam.
