Christianity, Islam are not comparable

| March 8, 2016 6:00 AM

The Bible says you will know what people are by the fruit their lives produce. People like to use the Crusades as an example of “Christian” atrocities. The Crusades were ordered by the Holy Roman Catholic Church. The Roman Church was extremely corrupt; bribery, sexual sin, incest and murder were common in it. I would not call them Christian. Allah is not “the same God Christians worship, just called by a different name.” I thought that old myth was buried long ago. People who believe Islam is a religion of peace should read an English translation of the Quran.
