I have a lot of respect for the religion of peace.

I don't respect pacifists as much. If you're being oppressed, resistance is better than passivity. Not saying I can't understand why someone wouldn't resist though.

Christianity n Islam go together like peanut butter n jelly

One kills the unbeliever where ever they find them, the other turns the other cheek

The weak, pathetic and sick liberal Christians and the cancerous liberation theology that has plagued Christianity will be the death of Christianity if they are not cleansed from the religion. The bible encourages Christians to fight back. For example:

"Be strong, and let us fight bravely for our people and the cities of our God. The LORD will do what is good in his sight."

-2 Samuel 10:12

The Catholic Catechism encourages and promotes self-defense:

Legitimate defense

2263 The legitimate defense of persons and societies is not an exception to the prohibition against the murder of the innocent that constitutes intentional killing. "The act of self-defense can have a double effect: the preservation of one's own life; and the killing of the aggressor. . . . The one is intended, the other is not."65

2264 Love toward oneself remains a fundamental principle of morality. Therefore it is legitimate to insist on respect for one's own right to life. Someone who defends his life is not guilty of murder even if he is forced to deal his aggressor a lethal blow:

If a man in self-defense uses more than necessary violence, it will be unlawful: whereas if he repels force with moderation, his defense will be lawful. . . . Nor is it necessary for salvation that a man omit the act of moderate self-defense to avoid killing the other man, since one is bound to take more care of one's own life than of another's. 66

2265 Legitimate defense can be not only a right but a grave duty for one who is responsible for the lives of others. The defense of the common good requires that an unjust aggressor be rendered unable to cause harm. For this reason, those who legitimately hold authority also have the right to use arms to repel aggressors against the civil community entrusted to their responsibility.

2267 Assuming that the guilty party's identity and responsibility have been fully determined, the traditional teaching of the Church does not exclude recourse to the death penalty, if this is the only possible way of effectively defending human lives against the unjust aggressor.

Isn't that Old Testament though? The excuse is always that the ugly stuff is OT and now non-binding.

1 Christian killed for their faith every 6 minutes in 2016 – study


Ninety thousand Christians were murdered for their faith around the globe this year, which amounts to one being killed every six minutes, Italy’s CESNUR religious study group said.

Christians are now the most persecuted religious group in the world, Massimo Introvigne, director of the Center for Studies on New Religions (CESNUR), told Vatican Radio.

According to CESNUR statistics, around 500,000 Christians around the globe are unable to practice their faith completely freely, Introvigne said.

Seventy percent of the killings of Christians in 2016 occurred during tribal conflicts in Africa, he said, referring to data from the Center for the Study of Global Christianity.

The large number of deaths may be explained by the fact that many devoted Christians refuse to take up arms, he added.

The remaining 30 percent, or 27,000, lost their lives in terrorist attacks, the destruction of Christian villages, or persecution by the authorities, Introvigne said.

However, he said that the number of Christian killings has decreased, compared to 105,000 deaths in 2015.

The data in the report may be incomplete as it doesn’t include India and China, where the Christian community survives in secrecy, he added.

It could be argued that today's progressives/liberals are ironically closer to the true Christian teaching than conservatives who preach Christianity, but don't seem to live up to it n with a reason.

Like progressivism, Christianity is a self defeating ideology. You're constantly supposed to go against your best interest in order to serve some "higher" or "greater" good.

Trump is a jackass but its the mealy mouthed ''not all muslims'' morally cowardly liberals unwilling to address the problem that created the situation for Trump to rise.

Yes not all muslims are murderers but that does not mean that there is not a problem and it does'nt make someone offering valid criticisms of islam an islamophobe.
 
It's only going to get worse.

Summer season is coming on. I remember when I was a kid and that meant blockbuster films. I miss that.
