Between 632 and 732 the Moors (Muslim) aggressively threatened the West, thus the Spanish Crusade 1095 - 1291 was a retaliation to take back those lands.

Speak out! The individuals doing attrocities in the name of the Church were greedy, power-hungry individuals. It put a scandal on the Church that would turn people off for centuries. This, however, was not the Church.

Thats a good question and to be honest, I don't know what I would do. My hope is that if I were in that type of situation, Jesus would give me the courage to do exactly what he wants me to do even if it cost me my life. I don't have that in myself but I do have it from the Holy Spirit inside me.

Yes, but the moors killed christians to in my region thousands of christians were killed.
Even though that doesn't justify the evil that the spaniards cause I'm just stating something that is ignored by many.

They wouldn't make a peep. Just like in Germany. Christians were 96% of the population. They just let 6 million Jews be murdered in the Holocaust.

I would preach Jesus to the Muslims and Jews just like I am doing today.

It depends. I wasn't there, so I don't know the feelings that were involved. I would like to say that I would stand up for them, but then again, I don't know if I would have the spiritual strength to do that.

I would hope I would - but who knows? The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak - I don't know if I would have had the courage.

The removal of all religion from mankind is the only way to save ourselves.
