Okay, where are you getting this information? The Pope called the Crusades, and if as Catholics we believe when making an official statement the Pope can't be wrong, you shouldn't be attacking them. The Pope never called for "rape" and all that (which the Crusaders didn't commit. What did i say about all the war crimes being commited by unwelcome outsiders, or a very few radicalized folks?).

Wow. That's just plain stupid, I'm sorry for my political incorrectness. The Muslims for the longest time just accepted them as part of history. Heck, in the end, they won, so why would they want revenge? Until recently, they never cared at all about them, and 90% still don't because they were the aggessors. Do you honestly think that what garbage Bill Clinton spewed out for his 9/11 speech was correct? "Many of us are not blameless! You stupid white people caused this, because your many-great grandfathers took part in the Crusades! Ahhh!". Of course, he forgets that he's white, and by his logic, he's to blame too.

Just watch that, to get a  true, Catholic view on things.

And of course millions of Muslims died. Duh. So did many more millions of Christians. It's called war (wOr). The Muslims murdered Christians during their conquests, and threatened the Byzantine Empire. Do you think it would have been appropriate for Rome not to respond? Yes, they had recently separated from the Roman Christians, but militarily, this was a big deal. They had nearly taken all of Europe, and they would have, were it not for the French king. If they took Greece, Europe would have fallen, and that would have changed history forever.

Certain Popes have also made official statements denouncing Galileo and supporting belief of the earth being the center of the solar system. Popes are infallible when teaching on religious matters. Declaring war and teaching about the faith aren't the same thing. The Pope may not have called for rape, but there are plenty of reports of it happening.

Christians murdered Muslim CIVILIANS. Countless Muslim civilians. Muslim civilians who wished no harm unto anyone. That's a war crime. And even if the Muslims were threatening Europe, they should have merely defended, not attacked. What happened to turning the other cheek?
