In the first place, I have some grave reservations about the veracity of
this blurb.  It does not correspond to what little I know of Islam, in
that Islam does not have any evangelicism (convert or die) in its
history.  No religion other than christianity does.  Secondly, as Bill
points out, it is christians who have historically slaughtered
nonbelievers when they object to forced conversion.  I suspect that, if
this 'slaughter' actually happened, it was for far different reasons than
given here.

CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list. Proselytizing propagandic
screeds are unwelcomed. Substance—not soap-boxing—please!  These are
sordid matters and 'conspiracy theory'—with its many half-truths, mis-
directions and outright frauds—is used politically by different groups with
major and minor effects spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought.
That being said, CTRLgives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and
always suggests to readers; be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no
credence to Holocaust denial and nazi's need not apply.

Let us please be civil and as always, Caveat Lector.
