Your ignorance once again undermines your arguments

Why would I want to deny any fact of reality? I'm not a Muslim, so I have no need of being in denial of reality. You on the other hand must indulge in denial of reality. This is the 5th time I am pointing out to you that the New Testament supercedes the Old Testament. In other words, Jesus came along and said "To hell with all that violence, that 'eye for an eye' nonsense! Peace, brother! Love your fellow man! Turn the other cheek!". For Christians, Jesus's peaceful teachings override all the violence of the Old Testament.

Why is it that Muslims always ignore or refuse to address that fact of reality? Perhaps because it exposes Islam as a violent religion since in Islam the later violent verses supercede the earlier peaceful ones? The exact opposite of truly peaceful Christianity.

If you want any of us to look at you as anything other than a fool and a brainwashed Muslim then you simply must address this issue instead of ignoring it.

"ww1 ww2 are the christians' war, though they didnt fight on the name of christianity, but pope and other religious leaders involved in it because they were fought by christians mostly."

If that's how your thought process works, then by that reasoning since 90% of all current wars are being fought mostly by Muslims, these are Islamic wars, right? You're clearly too brainwashed to allow for critical or analytical thought. No one in the world, except for the backwards, medieval Muslims, considers WWI and WWII to be Christian wars. They were wars of secular ideologies. But that's far too complex for your simple and deluded Muslim mind.

"we didnt start 90% wars, just go read what mel gibson said: all the wars started by jews. lol he may be right"

Hmmm...a Muslim agreeing with a nasty anti-Semite. Why am I not surprised? So let me get this right...you are claiming that the Jews started the war between Iran and Iraq in the 80's? The Jews instigated the war between Muslims and Christians in Sudan? The Jews started the war between Islam and Hinduism in India and Pakistan? Are you denying that Muslims are involved in over 90% of all current wars on the planet?

How about some proof to back your absurd claim? And here's a clue...saying "because my immam told me so" is not considered "proof".

"we are just the victims of invasion"

Right, I forgot! Poor innocent victims! Because, you know...it's not the Muslims invading Christian Sudan and slaughtering the men, raping the women and children, and commiting genocide. The Jews are causing the Christians to fight, it's not the Muslims who are trying to impose power there! And the suicide bombers in Israel...they're not terrorists! Just because they're all Jordanian citizens and thus part of the cowardly and ineffectual multi-national Muslim army that tried on several occassions to destroy Israel in an unprovoked attack...they had nothing to do with invading Israel! And of course, the Muslims are not invading India and causing problems, nor are they invading Britain and Spain and blowing things up.

What a weak people the Muslims are! Afraid of the modern world, afraid of truth and reality, and always the poor victims of everyone else. Is there anyone on earth not suppressing the Muslims? Are the Mormons and the Jehovah's Witnesses suppressing you too?

"and other reason is that people lost their cultures and have one common culture- capitalism. anyway, we still have something left in us..."

You certainly do have something left in you! Pure, unbridled hatred and jealousy. Contempt for the rest of the world that has proven to be far superior to Islam in every way...education, health care, freedoms, rights, wealth, property ownership, safety, scientific achievements, medical science, peace, happiness.

Can someone please send us a Muslim who has the intelligence to actually make the debate interesting? Never mind. I'd rather just ask for the winning numbers to this week's Lotter drawing. I have better odds that way! :-)
