1069 supported that radical Christianity is indeed, some bad ****.

You then are arguing that 1069 should be looking at "average" christians. Which is irrelevant, because the quote was about RADICAL christianity.

That's why 1069's comment is correct in supporting Rosies claim, and your comment is irreleavnt.

But we have lots of threads about Islam, and not so many about Christianity.

I wonder if thats because these relativists are completely full of excrement, and Chrisitainity is nowhere near the problem that Islam is.

Christianity is the de facto religion in our law making branch of government. Many laws are introduced with their mores rooted in that religion. Its relevance is profound, tangible, and real.

Those on the board who do not subscribe to Christianity do see the passing of laws that are solely based on Christian beliefs (marriage, blue laws, abortion, death penalty, etc) as a direct affront to their personal lives. The immediate threat of Sharia laws in the United States is miniscule.

Since Christianity is a religion and we're talking about theocracy or at least a government intermixed with religion, its tangental references are bound to come up.

So, while the radicalism that Islam for women could imbue into dress, education, and even riding a bicycle.... the "threat" isn't here. It isn't tangible nor as relevant so the topic will naturally turn to the closest ideology that's espoused in the United States to make this topic more relatable.

1. We should NOT take into account the manpower or funding shortfalls.
2. We should NOT take into account the fact that we'll lose and what that entials.

That's grade-A crazy.

Here, I will show you. you have 100 points of life/energy/resource to help a cause.

Here are the causes:
problemA : needs 3000 points
ProblemB: needs 1000 points
problem C: needs 10,000 points.

So, you are arguing that by spending 100 points on any one thing in an attempt to help the problem, they are to be faulted since they didn't help the other three? Since when did helping someone mean you are to be scorned? If you put 33, 33, 34 points in each, well, you didn't help as much as putting 100 so you still suck right? I mean, why didn't you put 100 points in problemA!!! Do you see why your argument appears to be completely off-base?

Maybe you should fight for what you choose to fight for. And applaud those fighting for things that should be fought for. Maybe then you'd be justified.

There are several different religions claiming to be the “fastest growing religion”.

There are also many unreliable claims and rumours, especially for conversion rates, that often spread as urban legends. Hard data is difficult to come by.
