Christians have no reason to feel smug about how Christianity has reformed. In my lifetime they have been responsible for the Catholic vs Protestants internecine violence in Ireland, where they often attacked children. In Aceh (Indonesia) the Christians have perpetrated their own share of attacks on Muslim neighbours.
My own personal experience as a child in a fundamentalist Christian orphanage was one of unrelenting psychological and physical abuse aimed at making me believe something, that even as a child I could not reconcile with reality or common sense.
What about kids at church schools who are abused in the brainwashing of having them inculcated with whatever set of prejudices their parents subscribe to. What about the children (and adults) who are still being slain in exorcism rituals.
If I had to recall the 5 nastiest people who I have ever encountered, it is notable that they were all fundamentalist Christians, and all were rabidly conservative politically.
I am probably lucky in that I have not had close personal encounters with Muslims, but the hate speech in their holy texts makes me think that fundamentalist Muslims and fundamentalist Christians are cut from the same cloth.
Religion was devised by man as a means of defining and demonising "the other", as well as any other stated objectives. It is still the case today.
To conclude, here is a special thought for 'runner'; you think it is wrong for children to be aborted, but you voice no criticism of the children killed in exorcisms, or of their abuse at the hands of those indoctrinating them with religion. There were times as a child in the hands of religious fanatics, that I did wish I were dead.

ttbn; When a Christian murders 900, its "isolated". when a Muslim murders 900 its universal rampant religious hatred, is it?

runner, unlike you who believes in sacrificing children at the alter of the 'All Mighty One'. I have made my anti abortion views public knowledge on this forum many times. So stick that one.

MyOwnMan, the Christians like to air brush their sordid sleezy past!

The Pope to the Bishop; "Just don't mention the Inquisition, I did once, but I think I got away with it."

Paul1405, When has a Christian or a Church in the last hundred years murdered 900 in the name of his God?

Good question, Josephus. Even the Crusaders were sent by the Church to protect Christian pilgrims from being killed by Muslims. The were not sent to kill Muslims in the name of he Church. However, I'll bet that old Paul will come up with something to justify his beliefs.

Christian mass killing was a fact in the Central African Republic last year (and continuing). Also, do not forget the machinations of the Christian churches and missionaries that were such a large factor in the Rwanda genocide.
My,my, haven't we got a long way from why Muslim women wear a bag over their head!!

you are either very naive or very dishonest.Have you heard of Stalin, Hitler and many other socialist dictators. By far the nastiest people I have met have been secularist. Does that mean all secularist are nasty? of course not. Try thinking and stop regurgitating secular lies.
