Who would have guessed that? I am yet to be convinced that Islam as a 'whole' denounces the actions of Bin Laden.

I'm a Bible thumper? That's news to me. I'm not tied to abortion clinic bombers, I denounce that activity. That you think I would support the killing of abortion doctors is your problem, not mine.

I seem delusional to you because you assume that what you think is what everyone else should be thinking as well. When they don't, it's "crazy talk" and what not


It's delusional because it makes no sense, not because I don't think it.

Who said ancient history? I'm talking about MODERN history, like the IRA's religious BS with the UK's state religion. Look in American history for the people who were able to justify slavery, segregation, and pretty much every other hate crime by quoting the bible.
A small step back, look at how Latin America came to be with the help of christians. It's a consistent effort of christians as a whole, through out it's history to try to wipe out religious diversity by force. Granted, that's mostly the Catholic Church itself.
ALL reasons that religon IS seperate our government and why it should stay that way.


Still waiting for you to prove that murder and destruction is a goal of any prominent Christian in the same way murder and destruction is the goal of UBL, a prominent Muslim.

I usually get that when someone has lost an argument and has nothing better to say. Where I'm from or where I've been has nothing to do with what I know.
