If every person in the world was a Muslim there would still be wars, terror and unrest because they would simply fight amongst themselves to try and enforce each others 'brand' of Islam upon each other as we see in many Islamic countries today.

Unlike Christianity, which has only one "brand", and of which, all the members are in perfect agreement and harmony. Right?
It is true, it is true about ALL religions, except Buddhism, which isn't really a religion, but a way of life.
I agree, this is a fine example of rampant irony, if not outright hypocrisy. Though the Pot and Kettle Award has been given to an even more deserving post, this one definitely deserves to be listed here.
Umm, this really isn't much of a fundy statement. While there has been violence in Christianity's past, and still is some today, its not nearly the same as with Islam.
roadrunner570, I doubt anyone is going to blast you for your opinion.
OC..thank you! And Merry Christmas to you too!
Roadrunner, I don't recall you ever getting insulted for any of your comments. There is something different about the way you post and it shows. Keep trying, you may yet rub off on some of your peers.
Yeah, like the Catholics and Protestants did back in the day.
It would be a strange thing, however, to see an atheist and an agnostic duking it out...
"There is a chance, we might not have the technology to detect God, although maybe we do!"
"We do, and he's not there!"
"YOU MIGHT BE RIGHT BUT I'M NOT SURE!"
Farnsworth: "You people and your slight differences disgust me!"

Exactly like Christians are doing, fighting over which kind is the True Christians, and who are just devil-worshippers.
Hey, I've got a crazy idea; how about letting each person have his or her own kind of belief, and letting that belief be a personal, private matter.
Alright then, skippy. So if everyone were Christian, what denomination would they be?
@roadrunner
In addition to the troubles in Northern Ireland, mentioned repeatedly, the recent violence in Yugoslavia was inspired by conflict between Orthodox and Catholic Christians. For that matter, there have been innumerable non-religious wars between Christian nations (and Muslim, Hindu, etc nations of course), which leads me to suspect that even if everyone got to being the same flavor of Christian(or Muslim, atheist, what have you), there'd still be wars, terror and unrest for political and economic reasons
this pretty much sums up a fundie mindset, they expect everyone on the planet needs to be exactly the same, and cannot fathom that other groups don't think that way as well so you get arguments of "well if every person in the world was (insert religion, political bias, sexual orientation, ect here)....."
Yeah, that's a given.
You have no high ground here
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
