That's right and Maori culture was one of regular carnage too. <In the last few centuries everywhere there were Christians there was conflict, carnage even. Something to do with the ideology. > But the ideology often differed from the actions of those purporting to be Christian. I don't understand how burning at the stake was considered Christian. Slavery was abolished by Christians [not Moslems]. When women had 10 children each, there was a constant clashing of resources with population so there was obviously going to be conflict. Those who didn't win were eaten by the victors and the women used to breed more winners. Human history has been gory and full of carnage. But Moslem culture is one of ideological conquest, not merely a result of population pressure. Most people are like that - bossy buggers who want to tell others how to live and whether they can put a sign on their house, use a light bulb, and whether they can cut a tree down or not and they MUST wear a crash helmet. You know the sort, like Helen Clark and her coven. Mqurice
