|

My friend and I were discussing Islam and the world the other day, and we sort of stumbled across something that we hadn't thought of before.
Christianity started around 0 AD (for arguements sake, I guess) and the Crusades were around 11-13th century. 11-1300 years later. Islam started in the 7th century (I think) and now 11-1300 years later, there's 'trouble' in the Islam world. I'm not saying what's going on is the Crusades, but do religions go through these sorts of "growing pains"? |

| That's a good way of looking at it. I must say that I do agree that there is a point or more in a certain religion's history that will put its followers to the test. |

No religion exists with peace
every religion must go through many pains and problems to prove itself right to the world! |

| The problem isnt with the teachings of the religion whether it is Islam or Christianity cause in the holy book of these religions there is no "call for arms" so the problem lies with the followers of the faith who in certain conditions some of them, sometimes most of them, interpret things their own way. |
