Correct, Ebbie. What I meant was simply this: there are an infinite number of reasons why someone like "Ed" can have such a paranoid attitude, and we may or may not be aware of what those reasons are.

I was in no way implying that the Holocaust did not happen. I know it happened just as much as I know that I am sitting here typing this. I need no further convincing by anyone to know that it happened.

By the way, Peace, those lunatic ramblings you allude to on the part of Muslims who think that all Jews must be exterminated and that Muslims will eventually rule the whole world...yeah, those are insane statements by Muslim fanatics who are just as bad as the Nazis in their basic state of mind. And we all have reason to fear such people.

I fear them regardless of which side they are on in this Jewish-Muslim dispute in the Middle East.

There are similar lunatic statements by Evangelical Christians out there right now who say that when Jesus returns he is going to destroy all the wicked people in the world. Lurid descriptions are given describing how all the wicked people (which includes, of course, all non-Christians with the possible exception of the Jews whom some evangelicals believe are still the "chosen people") will be cast into a flaming pit. So, this would be all atheists, Muslims, Hindus, Buddhists, Bahais, Janes, Sikhs, Native American traditionals, etc, etc... Jesus will just move his hand slightly, and the Earth will open up and swallow them all. They will fall, screaming and howling into the flaming pit where they will burn in torment for all eternity.

This is in Christian literature right now. If you want to get the Muslim public upset, truly upset about Christian civilization, just direct thenm to a website that quotes only that kind of stuff from the Christian evangelicals.
