Fat Bloater,
You have got to be kidding if you maintain that "Christainity................etc are religions that were spread by speeches with no compulsion to believe."
What about the Henry V111, Elizabeth 1st, Cromwell and King William of Orange regimes that sacked the Catholic Church
in England, Wales Scotland and Ireland, killed Catholic leaders and clerics who would not convert to Protestantism.
The UK & Ireland is laced with ruins just to remind you of Protestantism violent origins.
The Orange Order will be commemorating this on the 12th July in a week's time.
The Sash my Father Wore ( The Orangemens' mantra)
"It is worn and it's beautiful
And its colours they are fine
It was worn in Derry, Aughrim
Eniskillen and the Boyne
My father wore it in his youth
On bygone days of yore
And on the 12th I always wear
The sash my father wore."
etc.etc.
In summary,this was Protestantism by the sword and current Muslim
extremists would'nt hold a candle to the early Presbyterians
in mass voilent techniques and the establishment of the
Protestant version of the Muslim Caliphate by the torch and sword.
