"America and Islam are not exclusive and need not be in competition. Instead, they overlap, and share common principles of justice and progress, tolerance and the dignity of all human beings."..... Barack Hussain Obama

Now that we will not burn the Quran, when are they going to stop burning the Bible?
When have "they" done this? Considering the bible is a holy book which contains a good number of scriptures which are also part of the Islamic tradition, I can't imagine why any devout muslim would choose to burn it.
What's that? It doesn't matter if its factual or not, as long as its seems "truthy" and makes wingnuts feel morally superior? Oh of course, I forgot how this game works...
As for the list, aren't most of the victims muslim? Doesn't that prove that muslims themselves are not inherently evil, but rather its only a small fringe of fantatics who will gladly kill, maim and destroy anyone who gets in their way? Shouldn't we be embracing the innocent, moderate muslim community instead of demonizing the whole religion like a bunch of ignorant bigots?
Christians, on the other hand, have never killed anyone. You can look it up.
I wonder what the reaction would be if we created a list of every time Jews have killed civilians in Palestine.
What's that? Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't realize it doesn't go both ways.
Oops! I see the mistake in their math. They left out the Crusades, as well as Christian/Muslim tribal violence spanning decades (if not centuries) from Rwanda to Nigeria. A rounding error, I'm sure.
Now that we will not burn the Quran,
Have to give them credit for one thing: not siding with Fred Phelps when he DID burn the Koran (and an American flag).
Besides predictably inaccurate "history," and other falsehoods, what's the point? Are we supposed to give ourselves a medal for not burning a Holy Qu'ran? I thought Jesus said to "turn the other cheek"? All these t-tardz are doing is behaving in the same way that they excoriate Muslims for allegedly behaving.
Talk about the Christotaliban. Get a clue; read the New Testament for a change.
Anyone got hours and hours of time on their hands to compile a list of all of the murderous acts committed by Christians in the name of their religion?
You could start with the Crusades, move through the Inquisition, cover the all of those English Catholic-vs.-Protestant persecuting-and-killing-each-other conflicts I can't remember in any detail, swing through the rest of Europe for various other religious conflicts and killings that I dimly recall from history class, head over to the US for genocide committed by Christians against Native Americans (and throw in the Salem Witch Trials while you're at it), circle the globe for a few more atrocities against the heathens, and head back to Europe for the violence in Northern Ireland - and, of course, let's not forget the Holocaust! There's more - lots, lots more - but that's just some places to start your list of violent Christian atrocities, right off the top of my head.
And if you want to pick on a smaller monotheistic religion, I'm sure you can come up with a list of nasty acts committed by Jews as well.
Oh, yeah, Islam totally has a monopoly on religious violence - as long as you know ABSOLUTELY NOTHING ABOUT HISTORY.
So much time spent gathering or inventing the evidence, and nary a link to a reputable news source.
Do you really believe that Muslim and Christianity can coexist, you are way off target. If a Christian converts to Muslim, nothing but if a Muslim converts to Christianity death to the infidel. Why don't you read what this author has to say about the Koran's references to everything you think you know about. Maybe it will be your first time you have even heard what is on the pages of their religious book. Get a clue atheists!!
@Previous anon Oops sorry,I forgot to insert the link
http://www.thereligionofpeace.com/Pages/Quran-Hate.htm
Anon, that's a hilarious link. Leaving aside whether the majority of today's 1.5 billion Muslims would disagree, everything it says is what we are doing to Muslims right now.
"Establish a hierarchy of relative worth"? "Dehumanize and say they are vile animals"? "Say [God] doesn't love unbelievers"? "Destined for eternal torture in hell"?
Sorry, but how is that any different from how Christian demogogues are treating Muslims right now? And not even just Muslims, but anyone the angry Christian political right dislikes.
It's nice that the Christotalibangelist also decides that if we don't agree with their Muslim-hatred, then for certain we *must* be atheists because only atheists would *defend* Muslims.
Get a clue, Christofascists. Some Christians read the New Testament and don't buy into this "kill the dirty Muzlinz before they kill you" bunkum. You've been sold a lot of nonsense. Grow up and follow the teachings of Jesus, who said to "love one another."
Do you really believe that Muslim and Christianity can coexist, you are way off target.
You really hurt your argument when you can't even name the religion in question properly. The correct question would be if "Islam and Christianity" can coexist.
And they can, they have, and they do. Despite whatever awful propaganda you may swallow from right wing hate mongers.
Get a clue atheists!!
Um... if we are atheists, then what does it matter if Christianity and Islam can or can't get along? Atheists seem to get along just fine with religious folks of all sects.
As for "getting a clue", maybe you ought to check out a recent pew survey which asked people questions about their knowledge of world relgions. The most knowledgeable group? Atheists.
