"Where's the Christian version of ISIS," he asked.
Remember,
the 400 years
of trans-atlantic slave trade
that maimed and raped,
killed, kidnapped and enslaved,
over 20 million Africans "heathens"
to bring them to Christ?
Remember,
the manifest destiny,
and what it did to Native Americans?
or the 90% of Australian Aborigines
who were wiped out
in less than a century
by Christian Europeans?
Remember,
Salem Witch Trials?
the Spanish Inquisition?
Or Crusades?
Or the lord's Resistance Army
that has raped and killed
over 100,000 Ugandans
in past 15 years
to establish Biblical law?
And by the way - not to defend -
but that's far more destructive
than ISIS, won't you say?
Remember,
American white supremacists
are identified
as a larger terror threat
to American security
than Muslim extremists
by law enforcement agencies
and research organizations?
Remember,
the UN reports that say,
in central Africa Republic
Christian militia
has destroyed
every single mosque
and enforced ethnic cleansing
on Muslims?
Remember,
George Bush,
a devout Christian said,
"God told me to invade Iraq",
and killed over 1 million civilians
in this so called war?
Oh, brother!
There are people
who misrepresent Qu’ran,
but Qu’ran itself
doesn’t produce terrorists,
just as the Bible
didn’t produce
the Ku Klux Klan.
You ask about ISIS,
which by the way
is a result of that bomb
you dropped in Iraq
in the name of your God.
So they invoked their Allah,
with equal falsity in their intentions.
So before you would want
any Muslim to speak for ISIS,
remember, my brother, what Jesus said,
judge not, lest ye be judged.
