Mohammad was a man of war, not a man of peace. And Christianity spread because of Santa Claus and bunnies... Maybe not Santa Claus.......but I am pretty sure bunnies were a part of it. If you became a Christian, you got a free bunny. Very nice touch!

Z, > Even if true, that isn't going to happen. The Arabs are pussies. That ignores centuries of history. > And Christianity spread because of Santa Claus and bunnies... You're buying into the myth that Islam and Christianity are more similar than they are different. Tenchusatsu

>Mohammad was a man of war, not a man of peace. And Christianity spread because of Santa Claus and bunnies... So the warring ways the Christians and Muslims acted centuries ago, that is the justification for Muslims continuing to act the same way today while Christians do not?

JPMorgan Chase posts better-than-expected profit 26 mins ago NEW YORK – JPMorgan Chase says it earned $2.1 billion, thanks to rising deposits and lower borrowing rates. The profit was 13 percent lower than last year, but better than expected. JPMorgan has not posted a quarterly loss since the financial crisis began. Like other banks, JPMorgan's loans are still seeing defaults increase. Credit costs amounted to $10 billion. But the company is benefiting from a jump in mortgage refinancing and deposits, as well as low interest rates. When a bank can borrow cheaply, it can profit more from lending. JPMorgan says it earned $2.1 billion in the first quarter, or 40 cents per share. That's down from $2.4 billion, or 67 cents per share, a year ago. But analysts predicted a profit of 32 cents per share.
