“Be thankful for the Crusades because it stopped the Muslims from conquering Europe”
by sheikyermami on January 11, 2008
“I am not going to apologize for the Crusades because I am very thankful that the Muslim effort to reach a conquest of Europe was unsuccessful. Otherwise, we would be speaking Arabic on this program right now and we would be talking about the Muslim continent of Europe and potentially even of North America.”
Reverend R. Albert Mohler Jr., the president of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, cited a number of reasons why he would not sign the letter which pushed for peace between Christians and Muslims, saying chief among his concerns were the apology for the sin of Crusaders and the ambiguous definition of God.
“If the Crusaders didn’t fight in the Middle East, then Europe, and potentially America, would be speaking Arabic.”

This is a satirical website. None of what you read here has anything to do with Islam, because Islam is a Religion of Peace. Everybody knows that good Muslims never do the things they do, (because Allah does it for them, Quran 8:12) and we know that only our misperceptions, ignorance and stereotyping of Islam makes Muslims chop off heads, kill and rape women and children, bomb subways, buses, nightclubs and fly jets into buildings. If it wasn't for the media and da Jooozzz, we wouldn't even know its happening.
We welcome open, honest, thoughtful, and vigorous discussion in the comments threads, so do yourself a favour and don't accuse us of being 'haters' because we are loving, tolerant people. Don't curse us, don't threaten us with death or hellfire, and don't accuse us of being "just like the terrorists" because we don't do to Muslims what they do to us or to themselves. Yes, we know that only idiots oppose Islam and sensible people submit, but you should know that we are ignorant bigots, hypocrites and Islamophobes, and we prefer to remain that way...
But since you are forcing yourselves (and your abhorrent belief-system on us) we will defend ourselves, because we must. Avoid tu quoque and ad hominem attacks. Don't bother with circular reasoning either, we been there, done it. If you annoy us, you will be banned and your posts summarily deleted.
Try to add to the discussion, don't try to sell snake oil, don't try to cover us with Islamic shrouds of kitman and taqiyya, don't bother with da'awa, (we've heard it before) don't spam us with long pieces of cut & paste, write in English, try to tell the truth,
(we know that's hard for you because you are all pathological liars) but the truth will set you free, try it!
One more thing: don't think you can post here under multiple monikers. You will quickly be disappeared! The same goes for
trufers and conspiracy kooks: you get one chance, one time. Blow it out of your ass if you must; put your stupidity on display.
But you won't be back, trust me on that.
Take a deep breath before you post, try to make some sense, do not just vent, do not make a fool of yourself and if you prove us wrong you can earn 10 Islamic dollars for your piggy bank. Deal?

God bless this man for telling it like it is. Had the Crusades failed not only would there be even less peace in the world today (the Koranists would be battling the likes of China and other non-Europeans who would give as good as they get as well as one another to crown the most pious among them) but the planet would probably be at about the 13th century in terms of scientific, legal and economic achievements (at least in the non-Asian part of the planet-another reason why the Koranists would seek to destroy them). The application of Koranic principles leads to nothing short of moral, scientific and economic retardation. Thank you Crusaders from saving us from the endless continuation of the Dark Ages.
LOVE IT. Finally someone agree’s with me.
Love the art work, BTW, know where I could get a print?
It has that “world traveler” look that I’m looking for.
lol
In the accompanying picture, are the ragheads doing karaoke?
The Crusaders made many mistakes, but they, Jan Sobieski, Charles Martel (sp?) and other Christian warriors did the civilized world a favor. They, by the grace of God, prevented the invasion of europe by a demonic religion.
So, yes, thank God for the good things the Crusades did.
Technically the headline “Southern Baptists tells apologists for the Crusades to get stuffed” is incorrect. The word “apologist” does not mean “someone who apologizes for”, in the modern colloquial sense of the word “apology”. It actually means someone who *defends*, using the older, original sense of the word “apology”. (As in the title of the Platonic dialogue depicting Socrates’ defense at his trial”.
Those among the early Church Fathers who defended Christian doctrine agains pagan attacks are known as “apologists”.
Those of us who think that the Crusades were a great idea are the “apologists” for the Crusades.
I’m not sure what would be the correct word here to describe people who are “apologizing for” the Crusades, but “apologist” isn’t it. Maybe “apologizers”.
I’m not sure when the word “apology” went from meaning “defense” to meaning “admission of wrongdoing”.
