there are so many attacks on the religion of Islam, and hardly any attacks on the religion of Christianity.

I search this forum, and there a hundreds of anti-Muslim threads, and barely any anti-Christian threads...

I don't think he's been revealed as yet. I had a friend who was a Rosecrucian and he said Hitler was a "practice run", whatever that means. The Rosecrucians are a branch off of Theosophy, who were basically Luciferian and consider the Antichrist to be their messiah. Hitler was an avid reader of Theosophists Alice Bailey and Madame Blavatsky. I read "The Externalization of the Hierarchy" by Bailey in which she discussed "the Jewish Problem" at length.

If you think one is needed then start one. However, please consider the difference between Biblical Christianity and the organized "Christian" church, which bears little resemblance to Biblical Christianity. The organized church is historically as evil and violent as Islam.

I wonder if that has anything to do with the population of the forum. Nah probably not

I do and I always have observed the difference.

Just making a point about all the hollering against anti-Islam in a sea of an anti-Christian threads.

Wut??
I thought you were complaining about anti-Islam threads and a dearth (not a sea) of anti-Christian threads. I'm confused.

Looks like I'm not the only one confused about what that point is.

Actually, I can see his point, and Scotty's posts make a lot more sense now.

Scotty is essentially saying:

DJL bashes Christianity all the time
DJL sees a group bashing Islam
DLJ: "ISLAMOPHOBES!!!"
"Disease, suffering, hardship...that is what war is all about."-Captain Kirk, from "A Taste of Armageddon"

I'm not sure that that's true, or even accurate to my posts and threads. Religion is a pretty reliable topic within this forum, but it's pretty equal opportunity. Christianity, Islam, Judaism, atheism, Scientology, Mormonism... they're all up for criticism.

I hope that you don't see me as the spokesperson for this forum. My opinions are my own, and people are entitled to agree with me or not. The Davy Jones Locker forum ain't run by me, basically.

It's pretty much what Scotty was saying. Whether he is right or not is another issue.

Also I've been gone for years. You all look the same to me.

Fair enough, what's your take on the Lowe's issue?

The guy (and it is only one man) is an idiot. I cannot think of a more trivial and asinine thing to protest about. There's expressing legitimate concerns about Islamization of society a la Europe and then there's pure banality like this.

Also, I find it heavily ironic that he protested the show because he thought it watered down the true nature of Muslims, while Muslims themselves disapprove of the show because...um...they thought it watered down the true nature of Muslims.

Interesting, but I'm not sure that some Muslims not liking the show really constitutes irony. Let alone the heavy kind.
