re: #510 Targetpractice, Worst of Both Worlds

“Shit, how about the centuries of bloodshed, inquisitions, witch hunts, and other inhumanity towards our fellow man that was committed in the name of God? Is Christianity still a “good” religion despite all that?”

The answer is YES. And I say that as a Jew. Because Christianity’s historical misdeeds (and they are grievous) are DISTORTIONS of the founder’s doctrines, which would have undoubtedly been the foundation of a “religion of peace” if its followers hadn’t f’ed up so badly.

Whereas Islam’s historical (and ongoing) misdeeds) are not distortions of the founder’s doctrine’s, unless you so twist, turn, and distort those doctrines themselves to make Islam into a mythical “religion of peace”. They are a FULFILLMENT of those doctrines.
