there would have been no 9/11, no Iraq and Afghanistan.
the people who perpetrated these acts believed in the same God as you do.

Iraq and Afghanistan were perpetrated by a US President who even reads the same book as the Christians you are directing this at, and publicly claimed to be acting on behalf of that God.
If a body-count is any indication, Bush has killed more innocent civilians than the terrorists he is fighting.

Yes, and no.
There is a God. So belief in him is a must. How a person uses that belief is up to them and that is what causes the problem.
People will always find reasons and ways to kill each other. Just because the terrorists use God as the reason for killing doesn't necessarily mean that is the reason.
They really did it because the hate the wealth and apparent materialism of the U.S. If they didn't use God, they would have used something else.
It's like blaming gun makers for killing people.

No they do not. That is a absolute lie. You will not find anywhere in the teachings of Christ to make disciples or kill. Thats the mohammades specaility. Further more, I guess according to your argument, the Trojan war never occurred, The Roman Conquest never occurred, The Persian empire never existed, the Egyptians where just misunderstood, the Natives in South America, were just loving farmers. Get real

Joseph Stalin was an Atheist. Are you saying all Atheists are like Stalin? I sure don't believe this, but that's what your theory seems to suggest. Why do you just want to stir the pot?

Do you realize the God of Islam is not the God of Christianity?
Now go back, rework you question and maybe have a starting point for a discussion.

Oh yes, because we all know that atheists never do anything bad to other people....
Terrorists don't believe in the same God I do. If they do, they certainly don't obey Him.

You are 100% wrong! The Creator does not ask His followers to kill for any reason. Jesus has never asked me to hurt anyone in any way. Your reasoning is flawed and ignorant of the facts.

Religious wars have been since the beginning of civilized man.
But you are wrong! any civilized peoples will defend the oppressed.

If they believed in the same God I believe in, they would be of the same faith and have the same morals and standards, which would include the commandment:
"Thou shalt not kill".

No they don't because my God wouldn't tell my to kill myself and others to. They do not serve the same God as I do.
