16. let's see the difference here
The POPE spoke out against the war (arguably the leader of the largest christian denomination)

The Methodist Church spoke out against it.

The Lutheran Church Spoke out against it.

Could we go on? I think so.

The problem that you have here is that Christianity hasn't started this war. A little man and his little group started this war and are using his supposed Christian faith partly as a justification. And this little war isn't about the spread of Christianity or killing those who oppose Christianity...there are dozens on this board that see it as a war for resources...not religion...religion is just a handy cover-up.

The Muslim jihadists of the militant sort are not out for oil...they are not out for other resources...they are out for the blood of the infidels. They ARE about spreading religion. They ARE about the destruction of those who do not share their faith. And I have yet to hear of one (ok, maybe ONE) Muslim cleric from the middle east speaking out against this practice...hell, most of them praise it.

So...many christians and LEADERS of christian denomination speak out against the war. Almost NO Muslim leaders speak out about the suicide bombings...and THIS is equal to you?

Hmmmmm...
