To be fair, Muslims tend to be violent and demanding (and much more severely and frequently than Christians) because of the Qur'an's instructions, which they have been taught usually at an early age. I think making the comparison is a bit misguided, considering that Christianity is largely a peaceful religion, whereas Islam is a violent pseudoreligion and political ideology that is currently being looked at by the West through Chamberlainian glasses. Also, on the "hate speech" issue, most of the Nazis would have been killed had they not obeyed their orders. Does that make speaking against them "hate speech"?
Oh. My. Fucking. God.

Do you really believe that? Have you never heard of the crusades? More recently, have you never heard of Christians who go round bombing abortion clinics and murdering doctors who prescribe the morning after pill? The Army of God, Eric Robert Rudolph, various white supremacy groups... the list goes on.

On the other side, what about the many (MANY) Arabs and Muslims who believe in peace or don't care much about global politics but simply want to live their lives as best they can? What about Nonie Darwish, Wafa Sultan, Walid Shoebat and the many others who have dedicated their lives to fighting the sort of belief system you blatantly assume all their people follow?

Stop and think before you make that sort of blanket statement again.
