I made it a smilie and added a line -
Quoting: WhiteAngel Here ya go Angel...what with all the bozofied 'christian crusade' crap being thrown out now:
The first crusade began in 1095.
That was:
460 years AFTER the first christian city was overrun by muslim armies.
457 years AFTER Jerusalem was conquered by muslim armies.
453 years AFTER Egypt was taken by muslim armies.
443 years AFTER muslims first plundered Italy.
427 years AFTER the muslim armies first laid seige to the christian capital of Constantinople.
380 years AFTER Spain was conquered by muslim armies.
363 years AFTER France was first attacked by muslim armies.
249 years AFTER the capital of the christian world, Rome itself, was sacked by a muslim army and only after centuries of church burnings, killings, enslavement and forced conversions of christians to islam.
By the time the crusades finally began, muslim armies had conquered over 2/3's of the Judeo/christian world.
To know where your heart is, look where your mind goes when it wanders.
A rock in bad hands killed Abel. A rock in good hands killed Goliath. It isn't about the rock.
A true warrior fights not because he hates the one in front of him, but because he loves those behind him.
