Because Christians like picking on other groups that have different views than they do? Just saying. Honestly I don't care what a person believes in as long as they don't try to force other people to conform to their beliefs.

  • Not all Christians are like that.

    True, but the fact that mainstream Christianity is prejudiced against homosexuality and wants their particular belief system to not only be completely dominant, but law in the US kind of says something. And as soon as this is brought up, the victim card is played and Christian get to say "We're being discriminated against. There is a war on Christianity!" I don't care about the spiritual side of it. If you want to believe in a magic sky man who created the universe, killed himself via torture, then came back, then be my guest. I have a problem with the actual Church itself and the agenda it tries to push.

  • It's not that they want it to be law, it's that they don't want their beliefs to just be trampled on. If they live in a society that gives no respect to their beliefs, then naturally, they would like to change it. Is it so wrong that they try to do it peacefully? And yes, there is a war against Christianity it's happening in the middle east right now.

  • Christians want abortion and gay marriage to be illegal because of religous reasons. They want their god and only their god represented on money and during the pledge of allegiance. They want the 10 commandmants put outside public courthouses. That's trying to make religous beliefs law. Christians don't want their beliefs trampled, but are willing to trample on others. There is also a war on Islam. War goes both ways. The "War on Christianity" refers to the points I brought up being contested.

  • I really, really don't want to get into this debate. It will devolve into a flame war. Can we please avoid it?

  • He's right thought. How dare a person kill CHILDREN all because they didn't think they were ready for a child? If you can't handle it, don't have sex. There is no "easy way out." And what war on Islam? Where are Muslims being persecuted? Where?

  • Ask any person of middle eastern descent after the events of 9/11 where the discrimination is. I'm sure it will end up going well for you.

  • You don't see people becoming terrorists so that they can kill Muslims.

  • Thank you for proving my point about Christians being prejdiced against any other belief system. And yes for a matter of fact there are Christian terrorist groups. http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christian_terrorism

  • Is it happening on a global scale though? Look at the headlines now. You rarely see ANYTHING about Christian terrorists, yes or no?

  • No I don't, but that's because I live in the US where the majority of the population is Christian. This results in a national news bias that paints Christians as the minority being picked on rather than the majority who's church is trying to assert dominance. And to answer your original question, no you don't see Christians(In the US) becoming terrorists to kill Muslims, instead you see them become soldiers to do so.
