Goebells gave a very passionate speech about getting Catholics out of government.
The future of the east was most definitely not Christian.
The NSDAP's attacks on the church only abated with the beginning of the war, check it out, it's a documented fact.
The Red Guards cheerfully denounced their own family for the sake of that ideology, if you doubt me I'll give you a book you can read about it, it's only one example but it won't be unusual.
Was it the Muslims who attacked America?
I thought it was a group of political extremists, sponsored by an Afghan based organisation (Al Qaeda) funded with largely Saudi money opposed to American foreign policies in the region such as the existence of bases in their countries and it's support of Israel more than anything else.
The last part of my answer I feel is more important than the rest, I mean I could be wrong about the motivations of the 9/11 attack, I may have missed all that evidence, it's to be forgiven if I have.
To blame it on the Muslims, to say Muslims innit, sounds suspiciously like a Bushism to me, shudder.
so everton are you saying it was the atheists wot dunnit? after too many readings of the Book of Ath.
Question Author
^^Haaaaa! The Book of Ath!! Love it!! That has to become a standard phrase around here - a bit like my 'custard pies'. :o)
So that's why atheism is held in such contempt. They think atheist worship 'A'
. . . not that there's anything wrong with that! . . .

It has to beat worshipping the 'B' the religionists worship. ;o)
"Lets hope one day American government would let the world know the truth behind all this conspiracy. And lets hope one day someone would be able to explain how a whole jet evaporated after hitting pentagon.

And finally lets hope that one day killing of any innocent person from any race, religion, and country at the hands of individuals as well as state would stop. And lets hope one day an Afghan child would be considered as important as an American child and lets hope one day a Palestinian child would be considered as important as an Israeli child. "

Keyplus, from reading your post ^^^ I gathered you think that 9/11 is all an accident of conspiracy cooked up by the American government? Do you have proof?
Yes Everton. It is not religion but extremism that attacks. But religion promotes extremist views. If massacring every man, woman and child in dozens of cities is not extreme than it would be fair to ask what is considered extreme by the believers.

Indeed the belivers are insulted by and consider the smallest transgression against the Laws of God as an affront to their very essence of being.

Why can you not see that religion IS Fascism?
The more powerful the group, the better vehicle it is for either 'good' or 'evil'. If a powerful character, with either an inability to recognise what is 'good', or having no ability to see why they should do 'good', gets involved with religion, then of course 'evil' deeds are perpetrated with conviction. It is down to their conviction they are doing what they should. The course taken is dictated by the powerful individuals involved, and how they think, not the vehicle they use.

As for 11/9, it was a large act of 'evil' but it was not the only act of terrorism humans have endured, and it will not be the last. Just wish the authorities would tighten up on their detection/prevention rather than use such incidents as an excuse to treat decent citizens as if they were worth little. The legislation and changes inflicted since in the name of, 'it changed everything', just seems a major step backwards for civilized society.
"Just wish the authorities would tighten up on their detection/prevention rather than use such incidents as an excuse to treat decent citizens as if they were worth little. The legislation and changes inflicted since in the name of, 'it changed everything',"

I think this too. It's a darn shame thew innocent has to pay for the guilty.
The attack was on America, not Chistianity, it was by Al Oaeda, not the Muslims.
It was in response to American foreign policies things like the "Chicago School Of Economics."
Bush simplified it to suit his own aims and to codify his agendas easily, that's why we had an iron cross (pun not intended, but quite good though) picked out of the rubble as a symbol.
If you wish to define the event as that, then do so, won't solve anything though.
sorry Everton could you explain the iron cross pun thing, I'm a bit at a loss to see a connection with anything relevant.
