Ppffff... does that really have anything to do with Christianity? Of course Bush would like Christians to believe that it does. And critics of Christianity would like to believe that it does. But, wishful thinking aside, does it really? And who is really doing most of the killing in those places? Seems to me that the Americans, motivated by Christianity or not, will need to turn the violence up a couple of notches if they're ever going to be able to compete with the Muslims when it comes to killing other Muslims.

It's also interesting how typical your case is. Though I am not defending Bush, I have noticed that whensSome people die as a result of what America does, and immediately everyone forgets about what has been going on in Africa or Chechnya. Or the roughly 10,000 political executions carried out every year in China.

I have never seen a priest doing any kung-fu.

Typically it's for self defense, not kicking the shit heretical beliefs out of folks, although I concede that would be fun to watch

BTW!! Watch THIS!

I am just saying, I don't think that we can ignore the kung-fu culture prevalent among the Buddhists. They say it is for self defense, or that they only use it for recreational purposes, but we know different. Then when you even mention registering their hands as lethal weapons, they get all uppity about their religious freedom. I don't think that religious freedom gives Buddhists the right to use their kung-fu death grip on our children!

Mohammad and his companions were all violent and murdered so many people.

CONCLUSION

Ok.
But watch the video! Isn't it awesome??

And frightening.

Apparently we've decided that the "caste" system does no harm.

the "caste" system that is seen in India is the same as any other class system in many other countries and has little to do with Hindu doctrine.

if you compare the entire history of Muslims to the entire history of Christians, then I believe that Christians have overall been more violent.
