Christianity mate? Check your glass house because Christianity definitely calls for plenty of violence in it's verses as well.

Kill homosexuals, kill the witches, kill women if they aren't virgins, kill individuals that are nonbelievers, slaughter entire towns if they aren't Christian, and make sure to kill folks if they work on Sunday even if they are followers.

And no, Jesus did not abolish the old testament, there's a reason for it being there:

Matthew 5:17-18. Do not think that I came to abolish the aLaw or the Prophets; I did not come to abolish but to fulfill. For truly I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest letter or stroke of the pen shall pass from the Law until all is accomplished.

*looks at K-K-K*

So let me get this straight, it's ok for you to condemn an entire group of people as a lesser people for the acts of a tiny fraction of a percent that commit those horrible acts, but god forbid someone dare call your religion out in its own?

Also I hate to break it to a couple of you folks, but the USA was most certainly -not- founded as a Christian nation.

Not only is it stated in the constitution under article VI that "The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the Members of the several State Legislatures, and all executive and judicial Officers, both of the United States and of the several States, shall be bound by Oath or Affirmation, to support this Constitution; but no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States"

But it's also written in the treaty of Tripoli written in 1796 (George Washington was still in office for reference to how young the nation was at that time if you're not familiar with our historical dates.) It stated that "the Government of the United States of America is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion." This treaty was signed in by John Adams who would later go on to become president.

(It's mildly ironic to note here that this was a treaty between the US and the Muslim government sanctioned pirates of the Mediterranean sea.)

Also take a look at our national motto of the time from the USAs conception up until the mid-1950s. E Pluribus Unum. "One from many." It means that though we are a nation of many people, origins, races, and beliefs, we stand together as a single nation. We are not a single religion based people, we are a community of all people.

That motto was not changed for nearly 175 years until the red scare of the 50s drove the USA to oppose the communists in every manner possible. That meant that to oppose the 'godless commies' the US would find themselves being forced to becoming a religious country to counter them.

In God We Trust was mandated as our motto in 1956, less than 60 years ago. You can probably go up to your very own grandparents and ask them and they'll probably remember reciting the pledge of allegiance in class without ever uttering the words 'under god' because it wasn't there.

The only reason the USA is considered a "Christian nation" is because people were scared in the 50s...

Seems to me that anyone who uses the word "Muslim" in direct and unequivocal association with "terrorism" is undoubtedly a prejudiced, hateful and an anti-Islamic person:

How can you label a whole religion of people being terrorists when probably about 1% of them are extremists. As if there haven't been catholic/Protestant conflicts in the past. Regardless, a lot of what you hear and see is filtered through the media, manipulated to create an image of "evil". Ask yourself this: do you really view a Muslim (male more often than female) as the personification of evil? How is that justifiable? You don't know many Muslims if you can say that because honestly, from my experience, they're just ordinary people.

You remember the last time someone started claiming one religion was bad? And people started to blindly follow it?

That's right, world war 2 and genocide.

Surely we should learn from the past, and acknowledge that when the west controls the media, then attacks countries in Asia, then obviously the western media will be biased. Come on man, who even thinks that the news or politics is actually legit?

The terrorists who murder people do it out of their own extremist views, the religion Islam neither condones these actions or is proud of them, surely, the recent events in Pakistan prove this?

Over 130 children were gunned down in a school in a MUSLIM country, these were Muslim children, killed by extremist groups, are you saying that those children were terrorists? Or that the terrorists who killed those children were actually Muslims? Why would they kill their own? Gotta question what you hear and think for yourself.
