Yeah, thank God Christians stopped burning witches, invading countries and forcing non-Christians to convert. Not to mention using religion as an excuse to lynch blacks.
The point is that Christians were once as bad as some Muslims are now. They evolved. Muslims are about 700 years behind Christianity as an organized religion and will evolve out of it, too.
And we can hurry that process along by not giving their crazies an excuse to turn people against us. You know, stop invading their damn countries for oil and stuff. Having said that, what is your point, OP? Do you want us to invade or something and make things worse for Americans everywhere? What the Taliban does in Afghanistan has no affect on your daily life, there's nothing we can do about it from here, and nothing we SHOULD do about it, as I just pointed out.
Until Russia and the West started mucking around in the Middle East, there WERE no powerful crazy fundamentalist Muslims. Let's remember who funded and backed the Taliban in the first place ...
If you lived in a culture dominated by 10% violent "wackaloons" that could not be controlled by either religious or secular law would you have the courage to publically protest?
Greg, Muslims in America who are not bothered by violent members of thier faith, do not speak up.
You have the cartel beheading masses of people in Mexico over drugs.
But since they are not a "religion" you don't care.
I care. You are not following logic. Because a person hates crimes against humanity caused by religion, does not mean that person would tolerate crimes against humanity caused by drug cartels or any other source. You see, it is the "crimes against humanity" along with the motivating source that we hate.

not buying your snake oil.
We dont have 700 years for a hundred million violent killers to "evolve"
Because I have seen the effects of religion on women and children first hand with my work.
For example: a women who was hemorrhaging to death because she had a significant abruption of her placenta at about 20 weeks. Because the baby still had a heartbeat, the catholic hospital would not allow termination of the pregnancy which is the only way to stop the hemorrhaging. She came to us on death's door.
