I'm not the one claiming that you want to see thousands of Americans killed, nor saying that you're sympathetic to radical Xtian extremists. I'm not buying into your effort to redirect the discussion either, and my question still stands, : Has Xtianity fundamentally changed in the past 100 years? Feel free to add any caveats or explanations that you feel are necessary.
BTW- IN case it needs an explanation, the proposition was that this brutality was due to Islam. I pointed out similar brutality during Xtianity's history. The point is whether brutality is due to the religion itself, to an extant feudal structure of kings and princes and so forth, individual pathology, or some combination. If its due to religion, is there hope that religions can change or can be changed?
I know its not the simple proposition that you favor, but I'm looking for alternate and possibly more realistic explanations.
---------------------------------
They pit us like dogs against each other and rake it in. And I'll bet they laugh when they hear dupes like you defend the system that fucks you over and rewards them so nicely! But the one thing they'll stamp out in horror as if it were the spark of conflagration is any whiff of socialism. That should tell you something.

The Lords Resistance Army is a radical Christian group committed to creating a theocracy in Uganda:
Quote:
The Lord's Resistance Army (LRA) , led by Joseph Kony, operated in the north from bases in southern Sudan. The LRA committed numerous abuses and atrocities, including the abduction, rape, maiming, and killing of civilians, including children. In addition to destabilising northern Uganda from bases in Sudan, the LRA congregated in the Bunia area in eastern Congo. They linked up with the Army for the Liberation of Rwanda (ALIR) and other rebel groups battling with forces from the Rally for Congolese Democracy (RCD)

If these guys were Muslim, they'd be on the news all the time proving the EVIL!!! of Islam. Since they're Christian hardly anybody cares, or even knows they exist. A Muslim fanatic does something, it's proof all Muslims are evil and Islam is the evilist religion, Christians do something and it really doesn't say anything about Christianity, you understand. Double standard anyone?
And for the record, the troubles in Ireland are probably more akin to the problems of the Gaza strip. Another double standard there, if the British had treated the Irish as the Israelis treat the Palestinians, not only would the Irish reaction have been even worse, but the British would have been condemned and vilified world wide. While the Israelis are portrayed as poor victims while they act just a viciously and violently (albeit more efficiently) as the Palestinians.
[Sarcasm]
Of course it is different, the Irish are white Caucasians, and Palestinians are Arabs, they have to realise they're lower beings and deserve to be killed on mass.
Fuckin' towel heads eh.
[/Sarcasm]

Guess as long as you can make a joke, it's not too bad.
Do you honestly NOT get the irony here? Sure, Chris made a joke, but it was clearly related to the topic, and his outrage was between the lines.
Yours post was nothing but a personal attack, which didn't even touch on the subject. Where's your outrage?
"I thoroughly disapprove of duels. If a man should challenge me, I would take him kindly and forgivingly by the hand and lead him to a quiet place and kill him."

Sorry, but Geezer had already proved you wrong before you even posted this pathetic little claim.
Not that it wasn't a rediculously deluded statement to begin with. Both sides are guilty, your playing up false innocence doesn't mean dick.

Did you miss it? Do I usually use that language?
I watched the video, and vile animals like that need to be erased, EVEN *IF* THE VICTIM DESERVED IT FOR SOMETHING HE MIGHT HAVE DONE TO THEM.
Yes, it's a different level of shit than Abu Gharib, is THAT what you wanted to hear? It makes me 100X, no, 1000X as outraged, because it was WORSE!!!!!
Happy now?

but the whole emo, anti-american, extreme left, nirvana junk needs to get old fast
Yeah, that whole insult-fest sure sounded like a lefty, all right.

NOW I know where you guys / gals on the Left get your ideas.
SecState Clinton's exchange w/ Rep. Dana Rohrabacher was very telling of EXACTLY how folks on here, and generally Libs everywhere, deal w/ being asked a direct question.
( Oddly enough, while looking for quotes to post here to make my case, I found THIS curious distortion of the facts. ) http://hillary.foreignpolicy.com/posts/2009/04/23/hillary_lays_the_sma

In another bold move, when Rep. Dana Rohrabacher (R-Calif.) asked asked Clinton about former Vice President Dick Cheney's effort to declassify documents he says prove the "success" of harsh interrogation techniques, Madame Secretary had this zinger:
Well, it will not surprise you that I do not consider him a particularly reliable source of information.
Only , that's NOT what the Congressman asked. The question asked was this -
" Are you in favor of releasing the documents which Dick Cheney has been requesting be released."
THAT right there is the direct, straight forward question which SecState Clinton was asked. In standard Clinton ( and yes, political fashion,) Hillary replies that she doesn't find him ( Mr Cheney ) to be a reliable source. SO WHAT ? That was NOT the question! She took time to make a personal swipe at the former VP and his credibility, and completely dodged the SPECIFIC question asked.
This folks, is EXACTLY how I see most of you. Dodging questions asked, and instead, replying w/ a snide, pointless and baseless quip. Rep. Rohrabacher, to his credit, wasn't phased and didn't sink to Mrs. Clinton's level, he restated the question, clarifying and reiterating the key issue, if she AGREED that the papers should be released,in full, or not.
She never answers. She says that " we should get to the bottom of this matter ", but never even comments on the FULL release of the papers.
And wonder of wonders, before the Rep can ask,for a THIRD time, the good SecState, time happens to run out!
Darn the luck of it all! Who'd have thunk it!

Yeah, she should have gone all AuRaptor and just said, "I'm deliberatly ignoring you because the question is irrelevent."
THAT is how you dodge a question!
