You should be proud as the reconquista is a miraculous turn of events. I explain to people that because of the Islamic conquest of Christian Constantinople, which effectively closed the trade routes established by Marco Polo (making them too dangerous and expensive in bribing the Jihadi's), is...

I too am grateful for brave Christians of the past who went up against overwhelming odds and with the grace of God, saved Christendom. Regarding the pacifists, I think they're hopelessly naïve and refuse to learn the lesson of history. They believe the Christian fate would be different from the...

You don’t think individual human beings should be humanely put to death when they are put to death?

A bonus, 2 for 1 special. :gd

He's probably written 100's of such posts in this thread. Pacifists abandon the Biblical command to DO JUSTICE. Micah 6:8 You have to keep asking him the same question because he doesn't answer. This thread is about the reasons FOR the Crusades. All he can do is hijack the thread and argue...

Yea, I'm sure you'll use different words in the theory but mean the same thing in practice as what I wrote.

Agreed. It's analogous to why the Roman Empire fell. While you and I would discuss the historical facts, this guy, @Matthias, argues ad infinitum that it shouldn't have fallen based on his interpretation of a book! Imagine another mundane topic, such as why we moved away from the Model T...

You will be amazed at what hyper-grace, overly-spiritualized people deny. They've chosen to make themselves irrelevant in the public square, abandoning all soul-full responsibilities and allow themselves to be directed by enemies of God - and they think they have the moral high ground!

Moving the Goal Posts. Is that what the Crusades were about, Christians killing fellow Christians?

Ignorant of history as a previous Pope called the Crusades. Regarding blessing nationalism, God did that Numbers 24:9.

Yes. Not sure what that has to do with the topic at hand. Another deflection. What does this have to do with the price of tea in China? You keep hoping to conflate unrelated matters.

Christ thought to turn over tables, whip at people and tell others to arm themselves.

These people are demonic.

This post is out of left field on both counts. While I didn’t read what @Button said, I recognize the Christian command of loving our enemies to be individual, while giving to Caesar is for collective benefit, including killing enemies of the State. Strawman. Again, I never said that. Jesus...

That is explained in post #66.

Animals are humanely put to death when needs be. What does the Word of God say is the remedy for lawbreakers; the Lake of Fire? Not too humane by our hyper-grace society.

Not sure what your question is; not sure how you are relating courage and faith to the issue at hand for it takes courage and faith for good men to do bad things. And make no mistake, we are warriors as our God is a warrior and we are made in his image. As Patton said, the goal of a warrior is...

Not very polite to only ask questions but not answer any.

Bizarre in Pretending a translation is divine.

Woke ideologues forget the purpose of government is to protect people’s life and property - not threaten it in a socialist utopia scheme! Always the same ploy is used; tempt an unwitting populace to trade freedom for pie in the sky government provide prosperity.
