Moral relativism....one of terrorism's best friends and allies.
Actually, an even better friend is sponsoring, arming, and propping up terrorist groups when it's convenient for you to do so, then condemning it when it comes back to bite you in the ass.
Another friend of terrorism is committing terrorist acts yourself, and being blessed to have a populace that conveniently forgets what their own government has done around the world.
And your point.....that was 800 years ago....but he also mentioned slavery and Jim Crow and how Christians justified the subjugating of blacks due to being the Descendents of Ham, the Darker of Noah's sons who was cursed to be subservient due to laughing at his fathers nakedness.
Ok....the crusades was 800 years ago, slavery was over 150 years ago, Jim Crow was 50 years ago......is that not just a drop in the bucket based upon how long scientist say humans have existed.
Oh and let us not forget
... If the effort is to highlight how people wrongly use religion as a justification for horrid acts, the point is taken.
However, "self reflection on the past" is not necessary when facing this current enemy. Calling out hypocrites is important... when it's actually present-day. Not when long-fought battles have been fought to correct past behavior and attitudes.
Because honestly, you want to start down that "you can't criticize if you have demons in your past" road, you (a prolific racial topics poster) are going to find yourself unable to criticize anything that's been done to black folks on account of what some black folks have done to oppress others in the past.
Circular logic.
