Most muslims don't believe that either. Only a very stupid subset of them.
In fact the muslims were civilised in this manner BEFORE the christians were. Even before the crusades happened muslims were quite happy to let pilgrims visit the holy land.

As for christians not wanting to kill those who believe differently to them go to an abortion clinic and claim to be a doctor who works there. Hand out cards with your address on. See how quickly you end up dead.

As for "other" faiths go find me a group of buddists or jains who are more bloodthirsty than your average christian fundimentalist.

It's amazing, sorry Lib, but you have just said it's ok to shoot Iraqis because they are religion mad Physcopaths. So surely saying that Christians don't act in a similar matter is an oxymoron?

Does this have to turn into another political/religion debate? We all know that the bad guys are bad, the good guys are good, and the hero gets the girl in the end. Give it a rest.

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

Ahhh! The dogma! The dogma! Keep it away! *runs around fratically*
Science alone of all the subjects contains within itself the lesson of the danger of belief in the infallibility of the greatest teachers in the preceding generation . . .Learn from science that you must doubt the experts. As a matter of fact, I can also define science another way: Science is the belief in the ignorance of experts. - Richard Feynman

I play games to get away from the dullness, stupidity, and unjust reality, not get thrust even deeper into it.
