Heretics

I acknowledged in my last post that Christianity has its dark chapters, but today, it is not trying to kill anyone. The bottom line for me is that if Christians would simply follow the example of Jesus, there would be no problems within the Church. Unfortunately, Islam's prophet was a warrior, who spread Islam at the point of a sword. We are living with that difference today.

C'mon, Daniel, No one wants to kill you because you are not Christian. However, there are a lot of people who would kill you for not being Muslim.

One reason I feel so strongly about combatting radical Islam (if that is the right term) is that I want you to have the right to be an unbeliever if that is what you choose.
