“But remember folks, Arabs are not the problem; Islam is. If it were not for Islam, the Arabs could be Christian for all we know. Christian missionaries could’ve eventually made it over to the Middle East and civilized the Arabs and converted them. Who knows?”

Actually, we tried taking back the lands conquered by the Muslims, remember the Crusades? Those “evil” Crusades where the Christians were the bad guys for having tried to get the holy lands back that had been taken from them by Muslim Jihad. Those Crusades that the Christian haters now portray as an invasion without merit, totally disregarding the invasion that took place initially wherein the whole Middle East was conquered by the scimitar. The Crusades which some Christians still to this day feel they have to apologize for. But the initial takeover of the holy lands by force by the Muzzies is just peachy keen, don’t ya know. Geez....

What about the Crusades? I agree with you with what you're saying about them, but my point is that the Arabs involved there were Muslim Arabs, and as I said, it is Islam that keeps Arab society so brutal and oppressive, not the Arabs themselves. If Arabs were Christian (and some are), they would not have such screwed up societies.

I meant Christian missionaries could have successfully converted the Arabs either before Mohammed of if Mohammed had never created Islam and had the Arabs never embraced Islam. Once they take hold of that religion, it's tough for someone to pry them away from it, because if you leave Islam you'd be killed by your own family if they got the chance.

The Crusades were as defensive as the invasion of Normandy. Trying to get a beachhead in order to take back a captive continent that had been conquered by force.
