I love how “journalists” like to compare the three major religions. Jew and Christians had their very violent times. But we learned and matured (hopefully) and grew out of that violence into more compassionate and enlightened people. Islam hasn’t grown since it was started. It’s stuck in the First Millenium. It’s forbidden scholars to question and to reach a deeper understanding — to evolve.

It’s their loss and their own fault. They don’t want to grow up and we can’t make them. It’s an adolescent religion that can’t grow up.

…and I didn’t particularly like what you said in the previous post about Michelle either, actually… I am very glad you apologized. I guess that was kind of an apology, wasn’t it?
