[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 3695897, member: 24302"] Really now. There have been religious wars in the name of Christianity but the thing that some can't grasp is Jesus never authorized waging war in his name and those that did were not practicing Christianity. Muhammad on the other hand made waging war an essential part of his theology and those that practice jihad today are actually being faithful to their religion. Do you have any idea how many battles were fought in Europe with Muslims over the centuries? This will blow your mind. It's a hypothesis I've formed. Europe and White Men didn't come to dominate the world because of their innate superiority. At one time Europe had 25% of the world's population. Closer to 6% now if I remember right. That helped supply their armies. But the major reason I believe that Europe eventually became dominant is the constant invasions from Africans, Arabs, and Asians. Carthage. The Moors. The Ottomans. The Huns. The Mongolians. Many others. That caused them to develop weaponry that allowed them to conquer others. And themselves. Hate White men? Think they're the scourge of the Earth? Blame Ghengis Khan. Blame Muhammad. Ah, the circle of life. [/QUOTE]
