> [@magellan01](#): > > The _cause_ was 9/11. And the _cause_ of that was radical Islam. So the question is where a majority of Democrats “fucking retarded enough” to go along, or are you fucking retarded enough to not understand that they, and the Reps, did what they thought prudent? Or, are you just plainly dishonest. Though I guess that last “or” could be an “and”. No. The USA Patriot Act wouldn’t have been approved absent 9/11, but 9/11 did not cause the USA Patriot Act. The power to suppress individual rights was something desired by the radical right since way before 9/11. That just provided an excuse, and also cowed the Democrats into rolling over for it. Though usually a mild breeze is enough to do that. ---

> [@AshenLady](#): > > Christians weren’t very Christian to Jews and Muslims throughout history. Christianity has a terrible track record of persecution of other religions. You might take a look at the various Muslim atrocities against Christians and Hindus, such as the general slaughter following the conquest of Byzantium and burning Hindus alive in their own temples, before making that judgment. The evils you’re talking about are in no way unique or unusual to Christians, and your post shows a great deal of prejudice against Christians. ---

Religions have not generally been nice to other religions throughout history, period. The Jews have probably got the worst end of it as they’ve lacked the numbers and political clout to do much damage to others until recently, but yeah, they all pretty much have been killing each other gruesomely for millennia. ---

The evils you’re talking about are in no way unique or unusual to Christians, and your post shows a great deal of prejudice against Christians. I know all about the Crusades and the Inquisition, and atrocities done by one religion in the name of another religion. The evils of yesterday do not make it okay for any given religion to have a pass in evilness in this day and age and/or commit atrocities of one kind or another. The LDS just a couple of hundred years ago committed the Meadow Mountain Massacre. No religion has an unblemished history of committing atrocities, except maybe “Dianetics”, which is a relatively new religion and is free of atrocities, per se, owing to it’s relative newness.😃 ---
