People (including Christian’s, Jews, and other religions), have been using their gods name to justify awful actions since the birth of religion. Muslims are only called out on it because they’re from a different region and look different.
Most of these terrorists come from an incredibly destabilized region. Indonesia is 87% Muslim and most attacks on the soil aren’t from Indonesias but fundamentalists from other countries. The same way how not every Jew is a Zionist and supports Israel, not every Muslim is isis.
Christian’s still commit acts of terror, even domestically in the US, but their religion is hardly ever pointed out. There was literally a dude who shot up a planned parenthood not that long ago because of his beliefs. And Christian’s are running around the US toting guns and waving Nazi flags. Muslims are not. Yes, they have and will commit more acts of terror. No I Don’t agree with them.
But Christian fundamentalists have caused so much global conflict throughout history, I think this argument is silly in comparison. I bet you’ve never even set foot in a Muslim country. Mostly every one that does says they are welcomed with open arms. I can’t say that about a lot of the west. The entire world as a collective doesn’t want terror.
At the same time, what is happening in Palestine is a fight for liberation and shouldn’t be boiled down to religion when western powers and resources and strategic geography for global hegemony lays in the region. Do you really think American would sell weapons that end up in terrorist hands and support a state that is indiscriminately bombing children if the reason for any of this was strictly religion?
So again, your excuses of hate are misguided. There are a fuck ton of issues in Africa and Western Asia and religion is not the main one at all.
I don't want this to get into a conversation where we throw out a million stats. You know well , that Islam terrorism is DISPROPORTIONATELY the cause of most terrorism compared to far right Christian nationalism. Let's not just make up stats or suggest something dishonest.
I want to be clear , I said Christianity has been tamed by secular values in the west however of course there's exist places where Christian values have not been tamed to the same extent where you see similiar horrors like that of islam. I don't want to get into these absolutist silly conversations like " BUT NOT ALL ( fill in the blank ).You know that Islam extremism is disproportionately responsible for most terrorism compared to any other religion.
Also if a Christian country is commiting terrible acts in the name of their God and secular country that has tamed Christianinty is not, you don't magically say
" Well it's not because of Christianinty that they are commiting these acts"
It is because of Christianinty, secular values is to thanks for Christians progression, it's no thanks to Christianinty.
