DA, but I really hate how people use examples from hundreds of years ago to go "see? Christians committed atrocities too so they are just as bad!" Society has evolved. This is 2015. The Crusades aren't something that happened 20 years ago. Regardless of what happened in the past, people today
(regardless of religion) are entitled to call out bullshit when they see it. If people are being beheaded and stoning women in the name of religion in the 21st century, there is a huge fucking problem. There is no modern Christian organization that comes even close to what ISIS is doing. At all.

So, you agree that there have been Christian equivalents to Daesh.

Yes, and?

Well, if the existence of Daesh speaks to some kind of fundamental truth about Islam as a religion, it's absolutely valid to bring up shit from the Crusades.

If all you want to say is that Daesh is bad, then yeah, absolutely. But that's not at all the point that people arguing against when they bring up the Crusades.

Yeah it shows that Christianity has evolved with some modicum of progress while Islam is still stuck in the medieval ages.

Maybe there's a difference in the level of development in the countries concerned due to the West fucking them over for the last 200 years. But no, it's not 'medieval'. It's just a different context of now. Saying that ISIS are the same as what happened 600 years ago is just another way of saying ISIS exists because Muslims are fundamentally backward.

Are you talking about this thread specifically, or in general?

Re: Um, in what timeframe?

(Anonymous) 2015-06-06 03:18 am (UTC)(link)
In general.
