Most Muslims are peaceful, but for some reason, their fundamentalists seem to create a lot more problems than Christian fundamentalists. All the christian ones do is continually try to play mind games on people and warn them of gods wrath to hopefully convert them. The Muslim ones (Wahhabi's and fundamental Shi'ite) really do kill alot of people though. Why is Iran so stupid in politics, because fundamental Islamist are in power. Many younger Iranians do not even practice Islam literally and a lot of them like metal music. They are cool too, just their leaders are morons, but less moronic than they used to be.
If Muslims extremists speak for all Muslims, then the Westboro Baptist Church speaks for all Christians.
Right? RIGHT?
Stop painting people of a different faith with the same brush. Do Christian killers represent all Christians? They don't represent me. Do they represent you?
The WBC, as disgusting as they are, have never killed anyone.
So do you liberal fools still belive that Islam is a peacful religon after the Kenyan slaughter? The Islam followers stabbed children, Castrated men, hung women and cut bodies up. Gouged out eyes and did every kind of disgusting thing all in the name of Islam. Yet many will try as they may to pawn it off as just a small group, or some other silly nonsense. No this is Islam. This is what your tolerant idiotic pushes gets you. You can't make friends and just get along with a pit viper. You can only cut its head off.
Yea, I do. What, a billion and a half Muslims and maybe several thousand act like this?
Your posts suggest to me you're just stirring up trouble. My first clue was "liberal fools". At least wait for someone to answer in a "liberal" way before you go for the throat.
Also, I don't believe cutting snakes heads off. What did a snake ever do to you?
Could you get more ignorant? Just because a group of Muslims did this doesn't mean everyone who worships Islam is a psycho murderer. If we are judging entire groups based on actions of a few, then Christians are bloody thirst murderers who will kill you if you don't believe in their religion.

Congo Free State under the rule of the Christian King Leopold II of Belgium:
Quote:
Congo Free State - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia ...... Failure to meet the rubber collection quotas was punishable by death. Meanwhile, the Force Publique were required to provide a hand of their victims as proof when they had shot and killed someone, as it was believed that they would otherwise use the munitions (imported from Europe at considerable cost) for hunting food. As a consequence, the rubber quotas were in part paid off in chopped-off hands. Sometimes the hands were collected by the soldiers of the Force Publique, sometimes by the villages themselves. There were even small wars where villages attacked neighbouring villages to gather hands, since their rubber quotas were too unrealistic to fill.
One junior white officer described a raid to punish a village that had protested. The white officer in command 'ordered us to cut off the heads of the men and hang them on the village palisades ... and to hang the women and the children on the palisade in the form of a cross.'[12] After seeing a Congolese person killed for the first time, a Danish missionary wrote: 'The soldier said "Don't take this to heart so much. They kill us if we don't bring the rubber. The Commissioner has promised us if we have plenty of hands he will shorten our service."'[13] In Forbath's words:
The baskets of severed hands, set down at the feet of the European post commanders, became the symbol of the Congo Free State. ... The collection of hands became an end in itself. Force Publique soldiers brought them to the stations in place of rubber; they even went out to harvest them instead of rubber... They became a sort of currency. They came to be used to make up for shortfalls in rubber quotas, to replace... the people who were demanded for the forced labour gangs; and the Force Publique soldiers were paid their bonuses on the basis of how many hands they collected.
In theory, each right hand proved a killing. In practice, soldiers sometimes "cheated" by simply cutting off the hand and leaving the victim to live or die. More than a few survivors later said that they had lived through a massacre by acting dead, not moving even when their hands were severed, and waiting till the soldiers left before seeking help. In some instances a soldier could shorten his service term by bringing more hands than the other soldiers, which led to widespread mutilations and dismemberment.
Death toll[edit]
A reduction of the population of the Congo is noted by all who have compared the country at the beginning of Leopold's control with the beginning of Belgian state rule in 1908, but estimates of the deaths toll vary considerably. Estimates of contemporary observers, as well as some modern scholars (such as Jan Vansina, professor emeritus of history and anthropology at the University of Wisconsin), suggest that the population decreased by half during this period.[14] Others dispute this; the scholars at the Royal Museum for Central Africa in Tervuren, Belgium, find a decrease of 15% over the first forty years of colonial rule (up to the census of 1924).......
