The weeks just keep flying by, don't they? It's time for another Week in Review, and this time, we actually have a few interesting things to review. Microsoft is going on the full assault against Apple and Linux on netbooks, Canonical retaliates, the IBM-Sun deal is still the talk of the week, and we did a podcast. This week's My Take isn't a happy one, but it is an important one.

I don't think Thom was attacking Christianity. He was just pointing out, to the original post that was blaming the genocide somehow on Islam, that Islam has nothing to do with it since it's a mostly Christian country..
If anything, it's the original poster that is trying to paint Islam in a bad light.

If he was attacking it or if he wasn't...that's beside the point; I certainly wouldn't care (actually I would be the first to attack christianity due to ways it fraks up my country). It's just that I've got a slight impression that Thom was giving other religions some slack...when they're all basically the same.

All religions suck. Specially those that divide people. Still people believe in a superior being, but not in Santa Claus.
Blaming stuff like this on religion is quite convenient - it creates the illusion that we are somehow "above" this stuff, because religion is quite irrelevant in the western world.

While I generally agree with what you're saying (and as for general topic, I guess I won't say much more - it's hard to add anything...), I don't see the reason to paint christianity in such a bad light in comparison to other religions.
Most of religions are flawed like that / don't work as advertised.
