They will kill anyone just for some perceived insult by someone entirely different than the one they kill. Its simply irrational and depraved.
So you're saying that the difference is simply degree.
Both kill.
They're both irrational and depraved.
You're really not going to get me to change my mind.

I fear one as much as the other, and that's not too much because I don't live in the US at the moment and my life isn't filled with fear.
Then again, the country I live in doesn't make incursions into the middle east trying to push their way of life on people.

I've decided this is the answer to the questions some of us have posed to you on this thread and which you have chosen to ignore.

You actually have revealed a great deal about what you think and how you think with that statement. God bless freedom of speech and the 1st Amendment because you have been able to display your true colors for everyone to see. Everyone can see the depths of what you believe.

I'm very glad the vast majority of people in this country don't carry around this kind of hate and intolerance in their hearts.

p.s. Lybians carried the ambassador to the hospital in an attempt to save his life. A Libyan doctor worked on him for 90 minutes trying to save his life. Pretty good chance they were Muslims. I'll leave you with that. Because I'm feeling kind of nauseous that someone who stumbles across your posts will believe that what you espouse is what Christians believe or what Christ taught.

The false moral equivalency between Islamist savages and Christians who kill abortion doctors is nauseating and beyond dishonest.

The tiny number of loose-canon Christians who support killing abortionists is statistically negligible; the number of Muslims who support jihad is counted in the millions.

There are no Christian organizations supporting the killing of abortionists; there are dozens of well-financed Muslim organizations supporting terrorism.

There are no Christian leaders who call for the killing of abortionists; there are hundreds of Muslim leaders who incite jihad around the world.

A Christian who kills abortionists has no authority from the Church; Muslims who slay the "infidels" are obeying their religion to the letter.

Slain abortionists are paid killers of children; the victims of Islamist terror are innocent civilians who have harmed no one.

I'd say believing the Earth is 6000 years old and humans walked with Dinosaurs is far worse.

Prove that the number of Muslims who support jihad is counted in the millions.

When was the last time Fundamentalists had the opportunity to do so? It's merely a matter of location and culture, as opposed to ideology. Uganda has ultra Conservative, what some might call "Fundamentalist" Christians and they are trying to pass a law to allow the execution of gay people. They are being backed by American Evangelicals I might add.

And let's not forget the Pastors who call for Nazi style concentration camps for gay Americans.

There are plenty of sociopathic "Christians". They just happen to be heavily controlled by secular law and liberal societies.

When your entire culture and government is conservative and full of raving lunatics who agree with your evil views, it's a lot easier to get away with violence, as we see in the Middle East in relation to Islam.

I don't know any Christians who follow Terry Jones. He has a congregation of fewer than 100 - that doesn't even qualify him as a Christian "leader" of any import. My guess is that he's probably anti-Catholic as well, so it's not likely that we would get along.

This isn't about following Jones, but about the government not harassing an American who has done nothing wrong and, in fact, has correctly identified Islam as the evil death cult that it is.

Christians acknowledge that everyone is created in the image and likeness of God, Muslims included. The Koran, on the other hand, refers to Christians and Jews and subhumans - monkeys and pigs. It's sobriety, not intolerance, to recognize that the concrete teaching of Islam is both false and wicked.

So are the teachings of your corrupt belief that you're trying to pawn off as Christianity. People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.
