We are reaping the rewards of that indoctrination, when nothing could be further from the truth.
The facts are, that Muhammad was a warlord who forced those he conquered to convert under the threat of death. And that Muslims went on a killing spree for the next 466 years after the conquest of Mecca by Muhammad, before what remained of the west wised up and decided to fight back in the heart of enemy territory, instead of waiting until the next Muslim attack.
1st crusade 1096
466 years of denying the obvious, that Islam was a murderous death cult intent on the conquest, enslavement, and rape of the entire world.
so... you say what about the Spanish Inquisition!?!
well.. im glad you asked.
The Muslims conquered Spain in 711 and ruled it with an iron fist until 1085 when the Spanish Christians had finally had enough and started fighting back.
374 years of Spanish patients.
But it took nearly 800 YEARS to get them completely out of Spain.
It wasn't until 1478 after the start of the Spanish Inquisition that Islam was finally driven out of Spain!
Oh! you didn't know that Spanish Inquisition was the last resort after 800 years to rid Spain of the Muslims? hm... I wonder how you missed that in public school!?
For those that missed this bit of history in public school, let me educate you:
Beginning in Valencia in 1502, Muslims were offered the choice of baptism or exile. The majority decided to accept the former, becoming New Catholics, of very great interest to the newly established Spanish Inquisition, authorized by Pope Sixtus IV in 1478.
So again, you see both historical atrocities supposedly perpetrated by Christians were nothing more than self defense after literally 100s of years of turning the other cheek while being slaughtered by the religion of peace
Now, you might note a historical coincidence happening right near the final removal of the Muslims from Spain.
Guess what happened at that exact moment in time?
The Discovery of the New World!
Which brings us to the final accusation usually leveled against Christians and the west, the mistreatment and slaughter of the native Americans by Europeans explorers.
But just who were the villains of the New World Christian atrocity stories? ...
YOU GOT IT!
The SPANISH Conquistadors!
The Spanish who had been fighting against Islam for 800 YEARS, and had learned butchery and forced conversion techniques from the best (many of which might have even been recent forced converts from Islam themselves)
The poor native Americans never had a chance against such barbarity at the hands of battle hardened Christian soldiers who had, out of desperation, and a need for survival, adopted the barbarous forced conversion tactics of their former Islamic conquerors.
THAT is the real history of Islam.
But, you live by the sword ...
