I noticed the news stories awhile back about the riots and demonstrations against the film short "Innocence of Muslims." I can sympathize with your frustration at what you perceive as blasphemy against your prophet and your god. Despite your pretense of honoring the LORD Jesus Christ, we Christians have endured your blasphemy against Him for centuries. For all your supposed honoring of Jesus Christ as a prophet, you deny what He said about Himself.
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. John 14:6
Despite the consistent denial and blasphemy against the Savior by Muslims and members of other such pagan religions, we don't try to kill you for it. You will answer to Him soon enough and that is precisely the point. We are content to let you answer for your sins if you choose but we would rather tell you how much this Savior you blaspheme loves you and how He already answered for your sins when he shed His sinless blood as payment for the very sins mankind (including you) have committed against Him. He proved that He paid that price in full when He rose from the dead.
Now I know that when you think of Christianity you think of Catholicism's crusades and America’s alliance with Israel and I can understand why. It’s a whole lot easier to justify your murderous passions by creating a straw man than to actually read the words of the Lord Jesus Christ such as:
But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust. For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same? And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so? Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect. (Matthew 5:44-48)
Jesus also said from the cross as the Jews and gentiles mocked Him as He died for their sins:
Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And they parted his raiment, and cast lots. (Luke 23:34)
As misguided as the crusades were, it should be noted that they were a response to your bloody conquests of the Middle East in the name of your prophet and your god. It’s not like they invaded Mecca right? Oh wait, I forgot. That’s where you proudly declare YOUR conquests started. In fact your whole religion is a religion of murder and conquest and has never been a religion of peace. You really ought to stop whining about it and acting so hypocritically since your own state/religious crusades are legendary. Your so called "peaceful" followers continue to murder Christians and other who disagree with your religion. The only reason you continue to whine about Catholicism's crusades is to justify your own. You are the epitome of the type of people the LORD Jesus spoke of when He said:
...yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service. (John 16:2)
