Who's justifying? Did you even read my entire post?

1. I don't know your thoughts but I do know Christian scripture. That's what religion is based on, however much moderates water it down.

2. We do "know". There are Christian terrorists in the United States. They're just not called that. Remember the "Hutaree" militia story?

3. Calling Islam a "rabid dog that is still running amok" isn't strong enough for you?

Because religious fucktards who are deluded enough to think they are doing 'god's work' are a dangerous force and xtians have proven to be a horde of murderous bastards when given the opportunity. Give them that opportunity back and you would see equal fury with far better weapons.

No need to speculate. Here's a group of Christian terrorists who were stopped before they could do the "Lord's work":

Sure, they're terrorists...your turn. Were those who flew the airliners into the twin towers Islamic terrorists?

And they all think they are doing 'god's work.' Who knows? Maybe they are. Going by your silly bible or their equally silly koran god is a real prick anyway.

Yes. Your point? Do you think you're talking to a Muslim here?

Until now, your posts "seemed" to me, that you were dismissing the Islamic terrorist threat.
These are the events as they unfolded on the morning of 9-11...

Posting a youtube video doesn't change the fact that you completely misunderstood his point.

For the second time, the part about the "rabid dog" that's still running free flew over your head?

All religions that preach a holy struggle against an imaginary devil, that imagine a horrifying "Hell" to save souls for all eternity from, are inherently dangerous. Terrorists, inquisitors, crusaders, jihadis, etc are all the inevitable result of the continued existence of these false, terrifying ideas of how the universe works.

Bottom line: It's not just Islam that's the problem. It's Islamo-Christianity.
