And you're the perfect example of anti-Christianity. You said it yourself "eye for an eye".
Such loving, caring Christians need to get revenge fuelled by anger and hatred of everything not Christian.

You fail to take personal responsibility when it comes to mutual respect. To gain respect you must give it.
Golden Rule
"Do not do unto others as ye would not do unto thyself. "
In other words the muslim deserved it.

Just for once, I will agree with you and I stand corrected. It does apply to all who are non believers. But they do specify Jews & Christians.
Oh, I know. I've seen that passage as well as others. Plus, the standard rhetoric from many Islamic 'authorities' (ie: Iran, Palestine) all want Israel wiped out. And while I am no Israel fan by any means, I don't want to see genocide unless it's warranted. And that is not.
But who knows, maybe im just being biased, and taking things out of context. My bad. I'll leave the rest up to human thought.
To be fair, we're all biased - no one here is impartial, of that I think we can all agree. However, this is my main contention with religion -- as much as each speaks of coming together and peace and love and harmony, it's only homogenous *within* that religion. If you stray out, you're 'out'.
And one only needs to turn a few pages back in any of their histories to see just how hateful and spiteful they are to 'whichever' group of people at the time they had a grievance with. When I say 'they' I mean the religious texts used to govern their respective faiths, not necessarily the people.
I certainly do not see you as a violent or hateful Christian. And neither are the majority of Muslims.
Sadly, it isn't the majorities of religions we need to worry about -- it's the minorities of those religions that seemingly cannot wait for the end of the world, or the end of their lives, and through whichever horrendous mechanisms required

Gee, thanks Confucius. Kind of ironic coming from a guy who's first post in the thread said this:
Golden Rule
"Do not do unto others as ye would not do unto thyself. "

You obviously did not read the link to the Christian hate group's page or watch the video before commenting. You just saw 'Muslim gets punched' and got a little spiritual erection.
So tell us, how should we respect this kind of behavior?

Again, saying it is Christian when the Video in the OP clearly stated "catholic prayer".
Go debate with the catholics on this issue. I have nothing to do with the catholic cult who worships Mary/Daaath.
Through this web site we hope to glorify
our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ by:
Equipping Soldiers of Christ
Making Disciples of lukewarm Christians
Exposing cults and false beliefs including Evolution
Growing the Faith of Christians
Creating an online means of sharing information between Christians & Non-believers
Winning the lost for Christ

Well yes, and that may be true. But having your elderly priest's throat slit during service is how these things get started from purely a psychological evaluation.
The hate you are seeing is that this is being used as propaganda.
Just as a philosophical example if your kid was raped and you shoot the guy before he goes to trial that is a different thing than shooting a man for fun
Just read about this example sorry for the dramatic example.

Could you imagine and just look at the flack this american Olympic swimmer took for behaving badly in another country....why others are required to demonstrate so much depth and understanding while foreigners in country act like fools.
Some guy goes into a church and shoots black parishioners and a flag is banned but a Muslim rips up a night club killing almost 50 and calls for tolerance continue......oh and blaming them american gun culture.
Lets put the indignation where it belongs people.
Are you trying to insult me or hurt my feelings?
It really sounds like your trying to frame that as an insult and if so that seems really counter intuitive to your seemingly liberal nature. Hahahaha fag...really???

"Oh it's a right wing site so it must be a lie" Do you realize how silly that sounds?
if you ask me to assume something is a lie because the site is of a polar opposite to your own beliefs.
I'm neither "left" nor "right"
so maybe that is why it is easier for me to take the information presented for what it is instead of getting stuck on my own confirmation bias.
