    All of them are covering this.To big of a death toll to ignore.

    Many women and little kids blown apart.Tragic.
    Westerners weren't even the target from what I understand.
    These sick fucks.What is their hard on for little kids and defenseless victims?They must feel like real men today.unreal.Allah must be sooooo proud!

    These deaths were tragic and horrible for sure. But we would do well to remember that it goes both ways. Many have been killed in the name of the Christian god. Fanatic followers of religions of most types are responsible for millions upon millions upon millions of deaths.
    Really?

    Can you cite the last Christian attack on innocent Muslims that comes even remotely close to this?
    No, I'm talking about how religious people of all sorts have killed millions in the name of their make believe gods. Christians have done that. But let's remember, not all Muslims are ISIS, not all Christians are Westboro Baptists.
    The Crusades back in medieval times... for sure.

    I said it a while back: in the modern era, the comparison isn't even close.

    People have referred to abortion clinic attacks and events like that, but in my mind... these horrific acts on the large scale and all the other 'smaller scale' acts such as publicly stoning women place the religion of Islam in a league of its own.

    It's not even close.

    * But this is not meant to give any religion a pass. They all exist because children are incapable of critical thought and are very impressionable. Just as people are brainwashed in the various cults we have seen over time, so to have people, on a massive scale, been brainwashed into believing something that absolutely defies logic, reason, and science. The brainwashed children become adults and pass their indoctrinated beliefs on to their children. A cycle that is very challenging to break given the power of the mind.

    It's very hard to break that cycle because as soon as you suggest from your freemind that religion has no place in any mind you are criticized for shitting on a persons beliefs.
    And so it goes, on and on.

    But you can't separate the past from the present. It's a continuum. It's all connected. Radical ISIS actions did not just spring up out of the ground like weeds in the spring.

    Not in my mind.

    There might be a link between actions in the 1400s and those we currently bear witness to... but how does that explain the other terrorist actions we see that are directed at peaceful Muslims?

    The more direct link is between our involvement in more recent middle east events.

    I think the argument here is that the US and its allies' involvement in the Middle East isn't done in the name of spreading Christianity.

    Not solely, no. It's very much about oil, but religion ("ours" vs "theirs") is part of it as well.

    In any case, we all agree the killing are horrible. Let's just not infer that this was done by Muslims but rather by fanatics.

    So if christians did such an appalling thing would you refer to them as christian fanatics or just fanatics?
