So, it did happen again, with Christians in the modern world. That's what. |
What happened again? What happened in Northern Ireland and Serbia? Please enlightened me. |

and also reflect on the following given your totally ethnocentric postings.

| Even if it is true, muslims founded the first university at Cairo (which women studied at as well), and without the rediscovery of Plato, Aristotle through Arabic sources as well as the influence of Arabic thinkers like Avarroes, Avicenna and other Islamic thinkers, Europeans never would have emerged from the "dark" ages. |

Okay.

| You didn't seem to understand that your original statement was incorrect when you wrote: |

| So I repeated my original statement when I wrote: |

| Finally, you wrote: |

For the past 30-50 years, there has been a great deal of religious strife and violence between Christian sects in Northern Ireland. During the 1990s, Christian Serbians and Christian Bosnian Serbs conducted a campaign of genocide against Moslem Bosnians.
So, your original statement was incorrect. Christian bigotry, intolerance and violence between Christian sects and against non-Christians has taken place, on a large scale, in the modern world. |

That had more to do with money and political allegiances than religion. IRA did not kill in the name of Mary, but republicanism.

These conflicts were all more about ethnicity.
In any case, where would Europe be were it not for the Serbian bulwark guarding the back door? |

You're claiming the attempted genocide conducted by Serbian/Bosnian christians was based on ethnicity. In the next breath you say it's all for the best because these christians are guarding Europe...
Guarding Europe against what? The "ethnic" group localised in Serbia, or the muslim hordes??
I don't know what's more offensive; your obvious hypocrisy, or your implied approval for attempted genocide. |

1. ethnicity? Yeah, they just speak the same language. Good luck trying to distinguish a serb from a bosnian. (yes, I'm sure they can amongst themselves, but an outsider? Yeah right.)
2. Those serbs, what fighters they are! Only they would fight over a place that symbolizes their complete defeat (kosovo). They were the last Europeans to get their asses kicked by Muslims. You can thank the Austrians for pushing the "Muslim hordes" back from the heart of Europe.
Wikipedia: Siege of Vienna
BTW where is that reputable source about the library? |

well yes, they were defeated by Americans. Nice to see you're a fan of genocide as well. Wonder how well that would go over with your pals in Israel.
Ah, so riots=losing a war. Interesting. And the fact that christian immigrants particpating in the riots isn't relevant? Of course not.
Junior, you aren't a friend of Rapier's by any chance would you? hmmm... |

Yeah? I guess we should have left them and let them duke it out (Nice population control). Maybe we would have lesser problems today.

Riots? What riots? All I saw on TV was French getting their asses kicked by bunch of thugs who were lead by Muslims.
