The religion IS to blame. Islamism comes from Islam, and Islamism is the problem here. Both are to blame because they're one and the same thing. Also, speaking of agendas, every time someone criticizes Islam you start trying to divert the subject to Christianity. We all have agendas.

Tried it, love space games. Think I'll try it again. Don't understand why he hasn't added normal maps, making them is pretty easy compared to normal texture work. This guy seems to be non-fail version of Derek Smart. Oh no, I said his name, now he'll come! :(
If you'll just back up, I never made the comparison to begin with, you did, then you assumed I had taken a position on it just because I presented some of the arguments for either side. The bottom line here is: When you have a virtual army of Islamic terrorists spread far and wide between all...
You're strawmanning again... So did Bush do it because of Christianity? If I were to argue that he didn't, I'd just have to point to the fact that he didn't mention Christianity being what motivated him, only God. At that point, that he did it because of Christianity is just contextual...
Well, did Bush do this for Christianity? Arguably yes or no, because on one hand, he said that God told him to do it, but on the other hand, he might have been pandering to the religious nuts he was talking to when he said that? Perhaps he meant it...? Psychoanalyzing Bush is kind of hard. I'll...
Islam is the motivator for these attacks; their "spiritual ammunition" as a Danish cartoonist once said. I don't think your analogy is that relevant given the context.
Anyway, you're kind of right... just change 'Muslims' to 'Islam'.

They would be the greatest troll ever! Make one political ideology seem complete absurd, and make the opposite site hate them and spend so much time denouncing them! :thumbs:
I don't see how you can stick up for anything else than the Ossetian people in this conflict - Georgia starts by massacring civilians by indiscriminately shelling a capital city, Russia steps in and does the same to the Georgians, and the Ossetians tag along to do the same. The only part that...
To be honest, after this latest massacre by Georgia, the Georgians really have no right to it anymore. The Ossetians of course have shown to be quite insane, too, but on a smaller scale.
South Ossetia has never belonged to Russia, don't know where you got that idea... :dozey:
Sure you don't mean North Ossetia? They were part and are part of Russia.
