I've noticed that most anti-muslim, anti-mormon, anti-sikh, anti-hindu comments come from Christians.
Christians tend to defend Bush more than Atheists too.
Not defending Islam here, but I don't think it's fair to judge Islam by Ben Laden, just like it's not fair to judge Christianity by the Crusades, or the inquisition.

good point.
i think it may be because we atheists don't have the whole "our god is the one true god concept" and we most often tend to let other people believe what they want and understand that there are good and bad people in every religion. christians believe everyone who isn't christian is going to hell.

You obviously don't know many Christians. Please don't lump us all with some of those fanatics that support President Bush. You know they are only thinking of what is best for their politics.How many young american,british,soldiers must die before stubborn americans realise they cannot win in Iraq? It is worse than Vietnam. Islamic terrorists are brain-washed into thinking they will go to paradise with a few virgins for company. Whilst you have that stupidity, you will find plenty of arab idiots. This surely is not the way of good,clean and deep thinking Americans? Being Christian,is to be fair,but Islam doesn't recognise any other faith as been anything but evil. Therefore it is little wonder that god -fearing people shun islam.

Yet you do seem to think that it's fair to judge all Christians for the comments of a few on this board.
By the way, I have never defended Bush. I think it was hypocritical of the U.S. to keep sending chemical and biological weaponry (under Reagan and Bush I) to Saddam long after it was apparent he was using them against the Kurds and the Iranians back when he was supposed to be a bulwark against the militant Muslims in the area and then, after we thought he was no longer useful to us, cry crocodile tears over these same victims when we were afraid (but without any proof) that he might use those same weapons against us. And then the official position seems to be to act like we never did anything like that, not us innocent Americans.
As for hating anyone, Muslim or otherwise, I do not. I might sharply disagree with their views, but I in no way hate them.

I see alot of christians that hate anything that does not have to do with christianity, however, if somone says something about them they go up in arms and yell about being persecuted.
Thats not all (or even close to most) Christians, of course, but it's an unfortunate pattern that I have noticed on Y! R&S from many people.

Totally agree. But who says Mormons aren't Christ-ian.

The illusion of 'us' and 'them' is strong in all of us. Atheists have it, Christians have it, I have it...
It's awful and it is poison.
