You're apparently stuck there. Again, you didn't respond to any specific point.

HUGE difference between never speaking up for something and not quite meeting your standards. And to expect any other group of people to have only been violent when Christians were in the same phase is completely obtuse.
All of your statements, in your post above, agreed with my statements to one extent or another, or at least did not disagree, except for your reference to the MCB, and on that point I simply went to Google and rapidly found an article that shows that they do not consistently stand up to the extremists who poison their religion.
Maybe it is time to start treating muslims a little differently?
