Warfare? I'm just not sure. If western civilization was pushed it does have weapons capable of clearing population in the Middle East. God help us if we need to make a decision like this.
Freedom of religion invariably favors christianity. Scientist see Catholic religion to open minded, at least in this age. The multiple accounts or Jesus life and His incredible wisdom impresses historians, because of its multiple sources, so the Bible is generally considered a holy book, which is much easier to read. The New Testament lacks the warlike issues common in the Old Testament and the Qu'ran. Most people like peace, and can find it difficult to ignore the talk of war in these books, with their vision of who God must be. The New Testament's widespread use is a great service to christianity. Desperation leads to fanaticism in Jew and Muslim cultures. The issue is much more complex in christianity, where most christian religions wouldn't consider openly condemning others, especially by group, indeed they are told not too.
Of course, the previous poster would disagree. However, if you want to question legitamcy then you must consider the sources. For instance, it can be argued that Mohammad was a power hungry man bent on imposing his view of society on other, indeed a socialist government, which in practice can make people lazy. The Old testament seems written by those who would place the Jewish people above others. Meanwhile christianity is faith in a God who chose to die rather than except power. It lacks these flaws. The inability to accept the trinity is based on a human limitation placed on the limitless power of God. Widespread use of Jesus' law results in a near ideal society, of course in practice christians are easy pray, BUT are clearly allowed to defend all persons who are opressed.

We all die or all lives will be changed irrevocably. We have to use reason. The West will win but it will not be the same. It's in God's hands ultimately, what about the Jew's and other religions? How about India and Pakistan? This war is global and more than just Christianity vs Islam as the terrorists would have it.
It'sJudism/Hindu/Shikism/Buddhism/other non believer's vs Radical Fundalmentalist Islamists from the radicals perspective. It's a battle vs Democracy vs Theocracy. If you read the Commison's Report on 9\11 it started or the increased treat from Extremist Jahidist's back when Clinton was in office. I personally don't particularly like the parties in office but that doesn't change the global view. They attacked India and Bush isn't there. North Korea is another problem. I don't see it as a Holy War I see it as a clash between societies. IF it goes nuclear and it's the end of humanity Christian belief is hopeful and God will prevail. No matter what it is ugly and will only get uglier and effects everyone no matter creed

"As the Government of the United States of America is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion; as it has in itself no character of enmity against the laws, religion, or tranquillity, of Mussulmen; and, as the said States never entered into any war, or act of hostility against any Mahometan nation, it is declared by the parties, that no pretext arising from religious opinions, shall ever produce an interruption of the harmony existing between the two countries."
- Article 11 of the Treaty of Triploi.
The US is not, nor has it ever been, a Christian nation. It was secular from day 1, and this is reaffirmed unambiguously in this treaty. The fundamentalist fascists are trying to rewrite history as part of their plan to turn the US into a theocracy.

Neither. The final war of Armageddon, which is God's war between himself and wicked mankind, is coming ever closer and he has promised that the earth will not be destroyed-that he formed it even to be inhabited. There is a detailed list of the world powers in the book of Daniel, and Daniel 2:44 says that God's Kingdom will crush and put an end to all the earthly kingdoms and his Kingdom will stand to time indefinite.

none. The mahdi will appear offering a false 7 year peace. He will even have a covenant wth Israel & allow them to rebuild the Temple. Then he will break the covenant & require that ALL people worship him or his image. He will take over the newly rebuilt Jewish temple for his own worship. At some point, he will be shot in the head & then heal himself fooling people further. This man is the antichrist.
Then Christ will appear, but the antichrist will resist leading his followers in one last fruitless effort aginst God in the Battle of Armageddon. God wins.

Firstly, there is no war between the Christians and the Muslims.
The only country close to fighting the muslim countries is Isreal. and They are Jew. It is what the muslim extremists want you to think. That the world is against Islam. And hence we have this violence. The world is not against Islam. And they never were. Christians are not against Islam. Christ doesn't want us to fight. Love thy neighbour.. War is a product of politicians and goverments...not gods.

It depends on what happens next. If Iran or n Korea jumps in It could be a real mess.I believe who ever wins it will result in a push for more globalization and loss of America's sovereignty which in turn will lead to the Antichrist coming on the scene to take control of it all

Christian,s and judo,s are Terrorist,s and thiefs
they want to get control over resources of Muslim,s
they are scared of the message Islam which mean,s peace
spreading through out the world without any struggle
Quraan have been translated in just 100 languages
Bible is now translated into 2082 languages of the world but still doubtful
Quraan denied trinity,divinity
Quraan teaches the whole way of life
Quraan denied any sort of VIP culture which is not digestive for them
Quraan is against capitalism
Quraan is denies Differences between human being,s
Quraan denies Idol worship
as you say muslim,s are poor and they dont have advanced weapon,s and there government,s are in under control of US
but still muslim,s winning the war christian,s and judo,s alway,s scared of Islam becouse they are weak inside and both of them are non-beleiver,s to GOD both of them denied messenger,s of GOD
but you will see 8000 american soldier,s have been run away from war and they hiding in canada
most of them become depressed losing there live,s for nothing
as you see all over the world muslim,s are attacked in
india,kashmir,palistine,afghanistan,lebonan,somalia,bosnia,russia,thailand,phillipines,all over the world
that,s why there is only one way to fight against injustice barbarianism extremism of western world
Jihad which mean,s strive to live and prevail peace when you that,s why Jihad is for good coz not to kill innocent,s
few orginization,s
fighting for power and politic,s but not majority
untill justice will not prevail there is only one way to kill barbarian,s
US ISRAEL INDIA are great terrorist,s i m not giving comment,s on civilian,s but leader,s
I dont know why they are scared of Islam even Islam mean,s peace this is the religion for humanity iff you dont beleive me read the Quraan & Hadeeth by yourself
i am sure you had never find the beuty and detailed guidence for humanity in any other book but Quraan The True Word of GOD

Christ will prevail in the end.
Like Mohammad realized as he tried to convert people to his false religion Muslims today will realize the same. I will not say they will all convert to Christianity that would be a lie but a lot will leave Islam.

I disagree, Christianity isn't the only religion in the US, there are Buddhists, Jews, and Mormons in the US. I think that the US will loose when it comes to money, and middle-east will loose to war.
