Here is a glaring example of Christianity used to murder people

[Lint Head]

in the name of God. Using the Ten Commandments as justification.
When a right wingers says only ISIS and Boko Haram cut off heads, torture and mutilate. Excellent interview also on NPR. Could be a repeat. But the book being discussed is on the second link below.

1. I've always felt that severing a few heads is not as bad as blowing off thousands of heads

with our bombs and other weapons.

2. Two wrongs don't make it right.

Sounds like what Trump said. "The United States kills people too." Hmmmmm.

3. Except, I don't think our bombs, invasions, occupations, etc., are moral in any respect

except possibly a direct, immediate threat.

Or as Thompson said on Iraq -- "We are the Nazis in this game and I don’t like it."

4. My post has to do with religion. Not a country.

Someone taking issue with my premise is just fine as long as it relates to the subject.

5. Did not, or certainly didn't intend, to take issue with your post.

Our 21st Century Christian Crusades -- in Middle East and Africa -- "is is a glaring example of Christianity used to murder people."

7. Scalping is a practice that Native Americans

Learned from Catholic French Trappers who were paid to come to the New World to eradicate the soulless, brown, non-Christian people who already lived here.

The Trappers collected scalps of their victims in lieu of hands or ears. The scalps were exchanged at the nearest trading station in exchange for money or supplies and provisions...

Native American tribes, having no idea why their brothers and sisters were left un-buried with their heads mutilated, began to copy the practice when they started to kill settlers for revenge...

8. This is complete BS

9. No - I have never heard of the tale of which

You speak. Tell me, how was this story authenticated and who documented it?
