How do they end?

    A holy war starts out by a group of religious people saying that my God is better than your God and I am going to annihilate you for not believing in my God.

    Do they ever end? Christians and Muslims have been at war since the beginning of the new calendar.

    But then some Holy Wars do end. For instance the war between Christians and pagans

    all you need to know is in a book called "The History of the Crusades" by Zoe Oldenburg........then you will understand how the stupidity of the new "political correctness" is enabling the invading immigrants, illegals, "troops" to conquer Europe without firing a shot.....it really shows the advantage of the host countries providing the weapons for their own conquest.....countless lives were thrown away by the old methods and now this is so much easier and quicker......and the USA is blind and ignorant to stated, dated and studied history.......how long before we have to adjust to our new "gods"

    The crusades were a holy war between the Christians and Muslims. Some say the Crusades were between 1095 ? 1492 thus 1492 was the end.

    The Crusades never stopped IMHO,, the lack of violent conflict is not the end of the war, it's a sort of remission.

    Holy wars once they start do not usually end until one side is dead or in complete submission. Like the pagans.

    When did the Greek religion end?
    9th century
    The short answer is the classical Greek religion we recognize as Greek mythology came to an end in the 9th century in the Mani Peninsula area of Greece when the last pagans were converted.Nov 7, 2013

    Fact is there are people today still practicing pagan rituals but not many and they don't call themselves Pagans.

    You think the acts of terrorism by the Muslims indicates a lack of violent conflict? Also the Koran dictates that Muslims are supposed to kill infidels and have been ever since the Crusades. It's not stopped... and never has.... it's just not on the wholesale scale it used to be

    The Muslims are on a crusade as we speak. Europe will fall to what I call reverse assimilation. When the invaded countries bow to the will of their invaders it will end. With the mind set of most of the European countries it will end with a whimper not a bang. Bob

    There is a good movie called " The Kingdom of Heaven" the story line revolves around a blacksmith who gets involved in the struggle of the crusades. Its quite good as a film. It shows the folly of war in general. Eva Green stars as the female lead. She is quite the bombshell and worth the price of watchhing. There are some other good characters as well.

    The answer to the question. Like any war. Holy War is hell...

    What their story book tells the sand rats:


    The LEFT and Muslims detest christianity. Islam discriminates by teaching that non-Muslims are the worst of creatures, and Muslims are the best of creatures(koran 98:6-8). Allah?s apostle was a slaveholder, a Muslim Nationalist, and a Ethno-Supremacist against Atheists, Christians, Hindus, Buddhists, Jew s, etc. Koran 5:51 says,?O you[Muslims] who have believed, do not take the Jew s and the Nasara(Christians) as friends. They are friends to one another. And whoever among you takes them as friends, so surely he is of them. Surely Allah does not guide the unjust people.? Koran 8:39 says, ?And engage in war with them[non-Muslims) until there will not be sedition and the religion will be completely to Allah?? Allah changed the Jew s and the Christians into monkeys and swine because they refused to become Muslims(koran 5:60).

    Is there an issue with using the word 'Jews'?

    FIFY. That's the way it was when I c+p.

    Maybe because it's from their story book and they won't even print the word "Jew" in it.
    Maybe time for another Crusade too.

    lt actually began long before even Christ. Muslims and Jews both came from the seed of the same man. His name was Abraham.
    He fathered two sons from two different women... lshmael from Hagar-The first Arab. lsaac was the first Jew. His mother was Sarah.
    Muslims and Jews BOTH know this. This is why Jeruselim is sacrad to BOTH religions
