Modern Expressions of Ancient Antipathies - Where is the Love?

Islam Always Trying to Invalidate the Truth They Want Replaced; by any means:

The French have made themselves targets of religious extremism for centuries, the region of Europe that became France being formulated from the expansion of the Holy Roman Empire as successor to Constantine's conversion of the realms of the Caesars to the realms of a universal Christian-like society which was successor to a mission of evangelizing according to the teachings of the Savior Jesus; to changing the message of Christ by conquering susceptible peoples in religious fervor and forcing belief in contradiction to the love Jesus preached. By the time Islam was beginning to find its way into challenging Christianity, true Christianity had already begun its slide into apostasy. Only remnant communities of true belief were surviving, barely.
The dark ages, the times in which Christianity survived due to the real message being protected by the Holy Spirit during the Crusades, a time that cost the Words of Christ so much suffering because Islam would not suffer hearing the truth of the Hebrew Holy Scriptures that they wanted so badly to replace. This is why they kill to silence what the Holy Scriptures teach. Even as they think they have some idea what Jesus taught, they will not recognize Jesus for Who He is and attempt to destroy any who follow Jesus in truth. Actually, theirs is a lost cause. For centuries, they have spent thousands of lifetimes thinking they will win; and instead have lost all religious creditability in a world that is in search of truth, yet is having a hard time finding it.
As religious as France may seem to want to be, and from all appearance they want so bad to project a Western sense of being Europe's center of religious tolerance, the message of that may be misunderstood when in that frame of tolerance, making intolerant ridiculous comments and castigating the belief systems of others, no matter how controversial the counter claims may be, Christ's greatest criticisms were directed towards the people He was sent to save, but, they in hypocrisy, rejected the love He was teaching and eventually He made pronouncements of judgment for all that rejected Him in His presentation of His Truth. Obedience to Him in His love was the message; judgment for those who rejected Him was/is reserved for Him to determine.
Today, the Adversary of all that is holy still touts fake religion, devoid of the love Jesus Christ preached and is still promoting by His Holy Spirit; defaming other's religious beliefs is not the way, but focusing His love on those who may believe is the way, the truth, and the life. Even in French, this is the way belief in Jesus Christ is still required to be shared; ridicule does not express the love; not ever.
