I have given examples of *Christians* doing the things that you say *Muslims* "promise to do... in this life".

Have you given examples of christian suicide bombers? No. Have you given examples of christians flying planes into buildings? No.
You have given examples of christians
saying things but not of christians
doing things.

 Oh good grief, Ramrod, are you *seriously* trying to suggest that many people's opinions on abortion are *NOT* influenced by religion?!?!

Of course they are but we aren't talking about them and abortion, we are talking about 'muslims v christians' in the 'terrorism stakes'

Ramrod, I have "added" those words because they are entirely relevant and apposite in the context of the discussion in this thread.

that may well be but they aren't relevant when you are disputing a remark that I made and the context that I made it in.

And trying to narrow the goalposts to just "people of other religions" ignores the behaviour of groups such as the Taliban against other Muslims who they considered to be "insufficiently (or incorrectly) devout" and this can easily be compared to the behaviour of some extremist Christian groups against *other* Christians.

I didn't narrow the goalposts,
you widened them to try to disprove a statement that I made.
*edit* Ah! I see where the confusion is arising here, It hinges on my use of the word 'promise'
You think I meant that christians say hateful things as well as muslims (of course they bloody do!
).
I meant that christians promise hellfire in the afterlife (and leave it to God to deliver) but (some) muslims promise hellfire in this life...and deliver it themselves.
I'm sorry about the confusion
