I think what Rolex is trying to say is that deep down inside we're all budding Jihadists just waiting to be really pissed off about something.

Embrace the inner derka. HALALALALALA!!!

Islam started off in a past-the-dark-ages mentality. They were the world's leaders in science, math, health, and some engineering.

So I don't want to hear the BS about them not evolving past their dark ages.

I think what you said is spot on Toad!

I wonder what Dark Ages Catholics would think about Jesus vs. Santa on South Park or The Last Tempation of Christ (assuming they got over the shock of television and movies first)

They'd probably light torches, burn people at the stake, raze crops, go on a crusade, excommunicate someone here and there until they realised they could film it all (thanks to this new TV medium) and post it on the internet (wow!) with some catchy theme music. Then they'd probably just stay in their hometowns beheading people. Of course, that was sooo 800 A.D. Some groups just have a little catching up to do.

In the rural southern part of Iraq I have seen many solitary homes and entire villages made of adobe brick by the subsistence farmers and livestock herders who built them. It looked like the set of a Jesus movie. Are thatch roofs still popular in rural Europe or Teepees in North America?

If you really want to make sense of anything, you have take the opposite side of a debate or argument. Research it and debate it with as much vigor as possible. It's hard to do, but without that mindset, you'll forever be just a pawn.

then there are those of us that recognize that particular culture to be a serious threat to our own and advocate an 18th century type response to the same threat. let the mohammadans howl. let them drag us back 300 years. thank you danish cartoonists it may well be the catalyst we needed.

"... it may well be the catalyst we needed."

A catalyst needed to do what?

Who is 'we?'

Yup, you win. I'm an idiot.

Anything that accelerates resolution of a crisis counts as catalyst.
In this case, clearing up, for all to see, whether one part of the world should and/or will amputate a vital part of its livelihood to accomodate another's would be a start.
