To John 8:32: You can´t change history as you sit at your desk

You submitted that "The truth is that Islam is not a religion of peace. It was founded, built and maintained on the basis of open warfare - against other Muslims and against Christians"

It is so obvious that you don´t know history Islam. Instead of reading a few pages you use your imagination to write anything you want about Islam. Islam is never built against Christianity. Early Christians supported Islam. Followers of Muhammed (peace be upon him) took refuge in the land of a Christian King. You should have known this. I don´t understand "the other Muslims". It doesn't make sense. You can't find any social, political figure like our messenger. He is unique. You can´t see any followers of those other than him in this century.

One fourth of world population follow Muhammed (peace be upon him). He is the founder of the greatest civilization on earth. Hitler was a real Christian. He was a German. Germans followed him and paid higher price for his brutal ideals. But some people like you ignore this reality. But reality is there. It is up to you to see or not. I am sure you will post some comments to prove that He was not a Christian but how about Germans who followed his orders? Will you also assume that all Germans at Second World War were not Christians. Europeans had to fight for more than a thousand years to free themselves from rules of Church. How do you explain this? Use your imagination here. History won't help you.
