[QUOTE=Megafan;35926152]Well to be fair, all the Abrahamic religions ask you to 'take up the sword' in one way or another, but it's up to the people whether they'll actually do it.[/QUOTE]
Taking up the sword can also be considered a symbol of struggle and conflict. The days in which these texts were written, conflict was often very violent and struggles involved bloodshed. Now, not so much. So the idea of a struggle against those who don't share your faith or those who would persecute you might not even include violence at all.

It is true, Christ is one of the most referred to people in Islamic holy texts.
Quite interesting, if you ask me.
[QUOTE=C47;35923106]With this kind of nonsense being taught at their academies, no wonder there are incidents involving desecration of muslim holy books.[/QUOTE]
Lol you certainly know a lot about that incident.

[QUOTE=Afrika;35926702]But the US military [B]was[/B] teaching 'total war' on Islam. That sentence is correct in every meaning of it.
Stop adding extra conditions to it, [B]then[/B] saying it is misleading.[/QUOTE]
So every U.S. Military school had the permission of the Joint Chiefs to teach this, and did? You realize that that's what you're saying when you say "the U.S. Military", right? It's the same as saying "Islam brought down two towers in New York".
I'm not adding extra conditions, I'm adding facts.

It would be true saying Al-Qaeda brought down the twin towers.
Did Al-qaeda load those planes with every member of its organisation? No. Was every member of it's organisation involved with that plan? No. Did every member of Al-qaeda agree, or even have a choice with the plan to attack the Twin Towers? I doubt it.
Its a stupid analogy.
[QUOTE=Cypher_09;35923696]This (and the others related too) is the funniest thing I've read all week :v:[/QUOTE]

But Al Qaeda's leaders helped plan and execute the attacks, and it was in line with the established ideology of the Organization.
If my analogy is stupid yours is outrageously bad.
Thank god we have sane people in our military who fight shit like this.

Also, to everyone who does associate the entirety of Islam to extremist groups, that's pretty much like associating the entirety of Christianity to the crusaders. I believe Islam will outlive these Jihadist groups, just like Christianity outlived The Crusades.

Hahah, you are the one always calling Muslims sand people and talking about how you want to kill them and you are whining about stereotyping.
[QUOTE=smace;35921176]Would be pretty neat to see a nuke go off at Mecca, but on the other hand this is humanely wrong.[/QUOTE]
