“Because I profess Jesus as Lord, I must let go of any strategy that seeks to violently impose “Jesus is Lord” upon another."

The author is pretty much a fool. Christianity has NEVER sought to "violently impose "Jesus is Lord" on anyone. That's the MUSLIM philosophy. --

Christianity has certainly tried to violently impose Jesus as Lord in the past. This is one of the reasons Jews are very leery of Christians. This is one of the author's main points. American Christians have about a 50 year historical mindset. Muslims have a 1000 year historical mindset.

Have you ever read anything about the crusades?

Please read Post 28; it changes the thrust of this story significantly.

"Have you ever read anything about the crusades?"

With this comment, you prove that YOU are pretty much a fool. The Crusades were a DEFENSIVE reaction against the "by the sword" expansion of Islam.

Before mouthing off, you might study some history. Christianity has NEVER had, as a doctrine, the spread of itself by violent conquest. Islam does have such a doctrine.
