This is pure bullshit.

I know what you mean. Sister Mary Ann would sometimes behead anyone who failed to turn in homework at St. Anthony’s.

Is that ignorance or bigotry? Or perhaps it’s what passes for razor sharp wit in your circles? Here are just a few names off the top of my head:

Pope Urban II
Pope Sixtus IV
Toms de Torquemada
Francisco Jimnez de Cisneros

That’s the short list of barbaric Christians. I’ve been reading up on the history of antisemitism; are you aware of what sort of consequences things like the Crusades and the Inquisition had for Jews living in Christian lands?

Or how about Vlad III (Dracula), impaler of Ottoman Turks (among others), whose father belonged to the Order of the Dragon (founded to protect Christianity in Eastern Europe), who was held in high regard by Pope Pius II, and who was (and still is) considered a Romanian folk hero?

Crucifixion? Not invented by Muslims. Beheading? Been around forever, far predates Islam. And don’t forget the guillotine—that one’s not a Muslim contribution either, it was a 100% European invention. The last person executed by the guillotine in France? A Tunisian in 1977.

Are you aware that in July of this year—just a little over a month ago—a federal judge in the U.S. (Alex Kozinski, conservative, 9th circuit, appointed by Ronald Reagan) said he was okay with the guillotine for executions?

Charles, if you’re watching could you please contact the troll school and ask them to please stop sending ones that haven’t graduated yet?
