That the Islamic Ottoman Empire can be directly attributed as a spreader of Protestant Christianity. As it turns out, they were filtering money to the Calvinists to keep Europe off balance. Ironic isn't it.

You want a source? Try reading a book.

It's relevant because the same people that helped to grow Protestantism are now being demonized by the Protestants.

It's ironic that you didn't present a source so it must be a false claim.

Maybe. But how is that relevant with current affairs of Protestant Christianity?
EDIT* You are so vague that I now question your motives. When people are forward and open they are trusted more!! Elaborate!

Also, the Catholic church was given Vatican City and autonomy as a separate country in exchange for not taking sides in WW2. Guess the pope did not care who was right or wrong as long as he got something out of it for himself.

Kind of like Cheney's company selling nuclear reactors to N. Korea?

interesting. Cite your source?
edit: uh, WHAT book? When people just say something vague, like read a book, that makes it sound like they have no clue what they are talking about and are just parroting what someone else told them.
