10 Points to most detailed and interesting answerWww@QuestionHome@Com Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: The crusades left a living legacy in the Muslim world!. Many Islamic propagandists had been suggesting that the crusade was never over (& this is had been going on way before 9/11)!. They believe the Christian west is still determined to wipe out Islam, invade the land of Muslims, & subjugate its inhabitants!. They believe that the modern crusades are taking different forms!. There’s what they call media crusade!. This is where the west bombards the Muslim world with the western pop culture (movies, music, Britney Speers, Baywatch, etc) in order to strip young Muslim off their values!. This way Muslims won’t resist an invasion, because they have no spirit, no values, they’ll be like animals who only care of satisfying their instincts!. On the other hand, we have the extremist Christians on the west who are still justifying the medieval crusades!. Now with the war on terror, where the enemy happened to be the extremist Muslims, they’re trying to propagate their extremist ideas & twisting the historical facts!. Extremist Christians claim the crusade was an act of self defense, which isn’t true & doesn’t explain why crusaders murdered many Jews & even Christians before they kill any Muslim!. European Christians persecuted Jews for many years at different time, places, & incidents!. But Christian propagandists try to show the masses that they had always been pro Jews (God’s chosen people), where Muslims had always been enemies to the Jews!. Of course, this isn’t true at all, the Jews had thrived in Muslim Spain in what became known as the Golden age of Jewish culture!. Once the land had fallen to the Christians, they launched the inquisition & brutally persecuted Jews & Muslims!. In conclusion, Muslims today live a dark age just like the Christians of the past!. In the past many Christians used to do evil against Christianity & against the Christian people as well as others!. Today, Muslim extremists are doing evil against Islam & against Muslim people as well as others!. But the crimes of Christians, Muslims, or Jews are not the fault of Jesus, Muhammad, or Moses!.Www@QuestionHome@Com For those on the side of the Crusades, the ill-fated military campaigns jumped-started the development of Europe and ushered the coming of the Renaissance!. For the Moslem world, the atrocities and ill-behavior of Christians contributed to the feeling of ill-will against the Chrstian West!.Www@QuestionHome@Com To sum it up I don't believe I am qualified to give anything more than a mere opinion based on the historical record and the reasoning that a thousand years have passed in which the sands of time bare nothing more than the notion that isn't it funny how with all of our so-called modern technology, we still have one foot in the cave!. We are the only species on this planet that seems to never quite learn how to wake up to love and appreciate one another instead of endulging our endless fear, carnage and bloodshed!. We must learn to be impeccable with our word thus insuring the sincere notion of love and truth!. This will then set into motion for us to never take anything personally resulting with our making of no assumptions for anything which at last will free us to always do our best!. As for "jews/muslims/christians", those are labels upon which some of our poor sisters and brethren have taken much too personal therefore losing sight of our source intention!. We are all asleep in this collective conscience when we should be gazing like lovers at the miracles all around us, the miracle that we all are just as life itself!. Www@QuestionHome@Com All of them started the conflict that still lasts today!.(What I cant understand is why Christians participated, "Thou shalt not kill"-10 commandments!.)Www@QuestionHome@Com |
