That said, I respectfully disagree with the idea of Christianity being an offshoot of Islam, as it predates Islam. I just think the only reason Christianity is now feeding the homeless instead of burning people alive is because of a 500 year political struggle to strip it of it's power, which we've now won. Give them back that power though, they'd do it again, sure. The biggest difference I can see between Medieval Europe and Modern Saudi Arabia is that the Europeans loved using fire while the Saudis are kinky fuckers and love the whip.

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie
