Do you feel the same about Islam or just Christianity?

Yes, almost every religion has those who play the victim card/role. It's one of the many issues with any organized religion. Some religions are worse than others for using this tactic.

And none of them will ever own up to it.

And also common in the Black, Gay, Latino and Muslim communities. Are they also intollerant anti personal freedom and bigoted?

Do you tell your Muslim friends "hey, sorry, human nature dictates that you're gonna blow again, but just wanted to let you know you brought it on yourselves. Oh wait...sorry your reaction may be negative, but there is only one reason why it is...you suck and you own everything your ilk did from day one. Sorry. Hee-hee! Buffy Out."

Wow.
This thread has not taking about Muslims though. But if you want to know I do lump all religions together in my mind. But only respond to those in my face.

Wow indeed.

By voting? How are Christians forcing their will upon you and your beliefs?

Try dealing with the facts as they are today because that is what affects us now, in the present world. Christianity has evolved past its violent history. Islam has not evolved at all and is, in today's modern world, the biggest terrorist threat to civilization.


Liberal Narcissism and Anti-Christian Phobia.
"Americans have always expected national television broadcasters to steer clear of degrading epithets. On April 14, 2009, CNN's Anderson Cooper established a new low in television journalism when he labeled millions of Americans in the Tea Party movement with a vulgar sexual term. Other mainstream media journalists and personalities gleefully followed suit. There was no outcry from the "anti-hate community." Many liberals do not merely tolerate contumelies against conservatives, but they delight in them."
I posted this in another thread - here is, sadly, some very current evidence that Christianity has not evolved beyond its violent past.
Now, does reporting this constitute an 'attack' on Christianity?
African churches attack kids as
What makes this even more scary is the number of American clerics who are promoting Christianity in Africa and the negative consequences thereof.
Again, are you suggesting that the public does not need to know about how these people are distorting Christian teachings?

Very powerful.
I wholeheartedly concur with this statement.

I agree 100%. Not sure what people expect when you have so-called Christians burning copies of the 'Harry Potter' books and depicting dinosaurs with saddles.

Expressing an opinion about these actions does not constitute a 'war on Christianity,' a war on silliness, maybe, but not a war on Christianity.
