You post so many of the same generalizations that it's not really worth my time to respond to them. As usual, you lie, slander and exxagerate to serve your purpose. But, I will analyze your pathetic attempt to emotionalize the issue.
The Crusades were begun by self-serving, corrupt apostates of your former church, the Catholic one. Still, they as individuals were responsible to God for their actions and false teachings. They are still paying for that today, no doubt.
There is no 'jihad' teaching in the Bible. You confuse extremism that can exist within groups claiming to be Christian and a CENTRAL TEACHING of Islam.
The Koran says that all living humans must convert or die.
Christian nations usually freely allow the practice of any religion but does not sanction secular law violators.
I've yet to see a Muslim in America get his hand cut off for theft, a woman be beaten or killed for showing some skin (by the authorities).
Sure, Christians condemn a lot of things but very few want or support a theonomy established by man. That's called "dominion theology" and it is very rarely supported in it's purest form.
Christinaity has never been about organisations or churches, those are man-made and we are to flee those that violate our consciences as true Christians. We also must take into account that all sin and fall short of Christ's example.
Where would you rather be, Miss Know-it-all, Kabul or Cleveland?
Maybe you could go over to even one of the moderate Islamic states and tell them how wrong they are for treating their women so cruelly? Nah, that would take courage and conviction.....
Forget Kabul, you would be shut up very quickly and completely.

God's judgement is reserved to Him at the end of the church age. IT IS NOT A ACT PRECIPITATED BY MAN.
You lie again. You know perfectly well that Christ did not teach 'jihad' by any man.

The interesting thing i find about these terrorist loons is that --not 100% certain that this is true-- but the night before the plane strike they went and got drunk and then refused to pay the bill at some bar. Drinking booze, as far as i know, is a big no no for a true Muslim. So is stealing for that matter. They also had their hookers paid for by Osama...apparently?
My point is that it seems strange how someone can break every rule of their religion but still believe they have Gods blessing if they crash a plane and kill 1000's . It's the same with some Christians, they can break every commandmant, but if they understand some cryptic prophetic verse they are somehow approved by God and still above everyone.
Weird thinking!

Before I get to my list of charities specifically for children.....
Did you know that Planned Parenthood in NY generously offered to have abortions performed for free to all who wanted them? My, isn't THAT just a typical example of the charity of the godless? Or, how about Gays using their political agenda to get millions of research money AWAY from Children's illnesses for their own pet project, AIDS research (a disease that would not continue if people behaved responsibly, sheesh many of the bathouses that spread this plague are starting up again, meanwhile hepatitus and AIDS are rising again!)!
Yep, you NOW advocates and no morality advocates are really much better since you have left the JW Borg. Here's the mirror again, take a look above and see what you now promote.

Hello Rex,
Wow! Have you been blustering and puffing. You still havent answered the simple questions I asked you some time ago.
Could your God have prevented the WTC and Pentagon horror? If he could why didn't he? If he couldn't what does that make him? In any case what's the use of praying to him?
Now try to explain this to us "unbelievers" Rex, try not to drown us in flem this time.

An insightfull comparison!
Emperor Hiroheto lost his Godship because of the Atom bomb.
The Kamakazi japanese gave their lives just for a man. So do all such religious people.
Maybe America should drop an A Bomb on the Muslim's Holy Mecca.
Then the Wailing wall.Just think of all that bowing down they would save people from.
Then drop one on the WBTS in new York.Then one in Rome.
It will then be Paradise and Peace at last!!Radar

C'mon Norm, How many times must your question be answered? It's really the same question over and over, "why does God, did not God...etc." What happened in Genesis, Norm?
You want freedom to choose or not choose God instead of being a puppet, right? That drama has been played out for 6000 years and you have exactly what you wanted. "I am the 'captain of my fate' and I choose my lifestyle. I am responsible to no one and no one else is."
Yep, you have the very thing that humanity has asked for. Live with it and quit whining or, maybe you could actually do something to make the world a better place in a little way?
God acts when He chooses and in His way and at His time. He provided us with a saviour and a life free to choose Him or not. The victory was won clear back at the cross and it is your own fault if you do not take His offer.
Where's your charity, Norm? You didn't answer my inquiry.

Hi Rex,
You made this statement:
God acts when He chooses and in His way and at His time. He provided us with a saviour and a life free to choose Him or not. The victory was won clear back at the cross and it is your own fault if you do not take His offer.
From what I have read in the bible, it seems that every time God has acted it was just like the men in the planes, his acts were to bring death and destruction. The flood, Jerusalem, Egypt, all the non-jewish people in the promised land, and yes his own son had to die, to appease him. Doesn't he ever bless people with good acts of kindness?
Well, I guess I should blame it all on the devil.Ken P.
