Davey boy wrtote:
“If Islam is responsible for 9/11, Christianity is responsible for Hiroshima & Nagasaki.”
vs.
“If Christianity is not responsible for Hiroshima & Nagasaki, Islam is not responsible for 9/11.”
While I agree that Davey boy is suffering from a mental conundrum as he blames Christianity in one post and American Christians in the other, his absolute cause and effect of 9/11 comparative to WWII is fallacious.
First off, let us not forget that the US entered WWII officially after being attacked by the Japanese. Secondly, I offer a challenge to Davey boy to find a Christian text that encouraged the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. I also offer him the opportunity that the director of the bombings was acting from a specifically Christian principle that he held…Hogwask is what that is.
In contrast, the 9/11 hijackers were not at war with the US. They attacked specific symbolic civilian targets and their impetus was not to end a conflict as it was with the US in WWII. When they shouted Allahu Akbar right before impact, they were definately acting on a direct Islamic principle. The Qur’an is ripe full of rules and protocols for war and deception….issues conspicuously missing from the canonical Christian texts.
But hey, Davey boy, don’t let any facts get in the way of your dementia-ridden rant against the US.
You are exactly the type of “religious moral equivalence” useful idiot that Robert refers to in his book.
