How about this. Adolph Hitler was a christian who lead nazi germany during the 1940s. He committed suicide after the war but he still has millions of followers today. Based on that one can safely assume that christanity is a dangerous religion follwed by racist extremists.

Not only does it not compute, It's wrong....do you read about whom you speak???

"Hitler made it clear that he “hated Christianity” and was going to eliminate it when the war ended (see Kershaw, 2000). One reason Hitler “hated Christianity” was because he believed that “it had crippled everything noble about humanity” (quoted in Kershaw, 2000, p. 936).

In Hitler’s words “the heaviest blow that ever struck humanity was the coming of Christianity” (Hitler, 1953, p. 6). The Jesuits were “swine,” and all of Christianity was “Jewish Christianity” which was comparable with “Jewish Bolshevism.” Hitler concluded that both were evil and both had to be destroyed (Kershaw, 2000, pp. 330, 488). His reasoning was based on his belief that Christianity was an “illegitimate” Jewish child and, as a Jewish child, was swine like its parent that must be eradicated. Hitler considered Christianity the “invention of the Jew Saul” (Azar, 1990, p. 154)."

most people that fear all of islam and think they are all out to do harm to America will never understand this argument. They will typically try to talk about how this "guy" didn't really represent Christianity or which ever religion they follow. They can't grasp that there are extremist within every religion that are out to do harm and those extremists don't represent any religion as a whole. These evildoers may be doing these acts in accordance to what they think their god wants, but clearly they aren't the norm or we'd have a lot more conflicts between religious groups here in the US.

I think we all acknowledge this point, and I don't think anyone participating in this conversation fears all of Islam.

A lot of misinformed people say Hitler was a Christian as well, I think by Hitlers statements you can reasonably conclude otherwise.... (that is if you are reasonable)

yep. that's the point he was trying to make when bringing up hitler in the first place. I don't think any extremist that claims to use any religion to exterminate another or carry out evil acts in that religions name is typical of a religion.

I am very reasonable... at times. lol

Lol, I guess the issue i have is that it's pretty well know that Hitler did not like Christianity. He was more into science and Darwinism. Someone like Bin-laden was know to be a muslim. I guess I don't see the correlation.....

I'm not even talking about hitler and what his religious affiliations are. I'm talking about using an extremist to stereotype a religion as a whole. It's absurd in my opinion. That's why I said "guy" in my follow post.

Wasn't really in response to to what you said. It was more the original Hitler post did't match up... sorry to confuse.....

It's as if he's telling them, "Hey, there's a Muslim conspiracy to take over the US". And these people believe this.

I never got around to responding to this. These videos are worth a watch.
