The crusades were against the moslems.

I also have a great article about the inquisition that pretty much deflates the liberal propaganda taught against Isabella and Spain during that time. If you want to read it, I will be happy to send it.

The slaughter of native Americans is not christians killing one another, and I am unsure why you bring that up. To outline that we really are the murderers instead of the sufferers?

And why are you trying to imply that we suffered and died by our own hands anyway? Do you have something against our suffering? Doest it bother you that we are persecuted? Why? What does it take away from Jewish suffering? Nothing. Have a little sympathy for us. I do for your people.

On January 12, 1988, The Village Voice published an articles entitled "In search of a Soviet holocaust: A 55-Year-Old Famine Feeds the Right" in which Robert Conquest's account of the murder of 7 million Chrisitans in his book The Harvest of Sorrow is called "unverifiable."

Primarily. However, many Jewish communities were wiped out on the way to the Holy Land.

I'm not sure what liberal propaganda you're talking about.

The slaughter of native Americans is not christians killing one another, and I am unsure why you bring that up. To outline that we really are the murderers instead of the sufferers?

Basically to point out that the history of Christianity is a bloody one. I had recently been having a discussion with someone who insisted that both sides of the Israeli-"Palestinian" conflict should hear the message of Jesus and it got under my skin.

And why are you trying to imply that we suffered and died by our own hands anyway? Do you have something against our suffering?

Well, I would rather not see anyone suffer.

Doest it bother you that we are persecuted? Why?

Yes, it does. Because I'm Jewish with Jewish values and don't want to see anyone persecuted.

What does it take away from Jewish suffering? Nothing.

Agreed on this.

Have a little sympathy for us. I do for your people.

I do. However, I do recognize that part of the problem is a philosophy which enables Christians to murder other peoples or themselves seemingly in the name of their faith. For example (and I'll never understand this one), in Ireland you have two groups of Christians murdering each other with regularity. Explain the Christian attitudes behind that one.
