Auss and US originated from christian beginnings. Initially, they were chrstian nations.
That they may now be secular without bloodshed shows the tolerance and freedom of christianity.
Part of christianity is to not judge others, so any other religion is not to be judged.
it's more a case of christianity not being relevant in people's day-to-day lives anymore, rather than an example of christianity being tolerant.

The people who are protesting do not want it to get there, ever.
but the pro-Islamic party got elected in the democratic elections, if these pro-secular protestors were so concerned they should of voted for a secular candidate or maybe they are minority of the total population.
Quote:Were you the guy that said mohammad had no brothers, in reply to my posting about him killing his brother if allah wanted him to ? And his brother being excited at that reply ?
I don't know if mohammad had a brother or not. Those passages where what I read in the koran at a bookshop.
yes, that was me, i've had muslims tell me that Mohammed was an only child, his father died before he was born and his mother never re-married and had other children. so i find it quite unusual that u say there is a quote in the Koran where he says to his brother that allah told him to kill.
Quote:I have brothers, there is no way God would tell me that.
hmm, i seem to remember a story in the Bible where Abraham was told by God to sacrifice his own son. r u disgusted by that as well?
