    But the News is telling me Israel are the good guys and what they’re doing is not a war crime.

        Sure, it says it right here:

        Deuteronomy 13:6-11

        6 If your very own brother, or your son or daughter, or the wife you love, or your closest friend secretly entices you, saying, “Let us go and worship other gods” (gods that neither you nor your ancestors have known, 7 gods of the peoples around you, whether near or far, from one end of the land to the other), 8 do not yield to them or listen to them. Show them no pity. Do not spare them or shield them. 9 You must certainly put them to death. Your hand must be the first in putting them to death, and then the hands of all the people. 10 Stone them to death, because they tried to turn you away from the Lord your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery. 11 Then all Israel will hear and be afraid, and no one among you will do such an evil thing again.

          Yeah, but like, show me some real examples in 2023. Because we’re looking at a movement in Hamas that literally wants all non-believers executed. Like, show me the equivalent Christian or any other denomination equivalent of what Hamas leadership put out a few days ago. Radical Islam’s “take no prisoners” approach to its proliferation is at odds with civilized society. Weapons tech is catching up with this problem though. Going to be an interesting future.

              Let me be most-clear: crusades are back on the menu and I have non-muslim daughters these savages would just love to rape and torture should they advance their jihad far enough to make it to our soil.

              Fuck them all… I’d say bomb them into the stone age but they’re already there. Any further questions? These goalposts have been firmly planted for a millenia.

                show me on the Christianity where…

                Shows

                Ok but not like that

                Moving goalposts. Pretty clear, and also a pretty disgusting view.

              Which sect leader is citing the Bible on record as an excuse to wipe out an entire religion again?

              See my other comment. If raping and killing non-muslim babies is their game and I have said non-muslim babies at home, I say wipe them off the fucking planet. Clear enough? A good defense is a good offense. I fully support Israel since apparently that’s the only way to save non-muslim children.

            First, I think all organized religion is at best regressive, and at worst completely at odds with creating the ideal model for society. This is doubly true for ALL Abrahamic religions including their various sub-divisions or denominations. They all either overlook, condone, or outright support the abhorrent morally bankrupt prescriptions made by their respective holy books and leaders up to and including their “god”.

            With that being said, let’s not act like there is any religion that comes even close to rivaling Christianity for the total amount of violence, war, and collateral damage caused in its name. Let’s also not act like there aren’t ongoing attempts by Christian Nationalists in the United States to erase the last century of social progress the second they gain any political power.

            Ultimately though, what matters in this conversation is that you formulated a premise that I then completely destroyed. So then you decided to shift the conversation, and out yourself as a bigot in the process. If you have legitimate objections against Islam that’s one thing, but you’re calling for the same kind of violent ethnic cleansing that you think makes Muslim extremists “savages”.

            So, what does that say about you? It says you are a hypocrite, a moron, and nobody should take you seriously because you care more about acting tough on the internet than coming up with anything of intellectual substance to discuss.
