christians learned their lesson after the crusades. muslims are currently on their way of learning it
This is a really poor understanding of the crusades as well as religious violence in general.
please educate me on religious violence
Well for starts the crusades were about more than just religion, and it's pretty obvious that they weren't the end of Christian religious violence and that nobody "learned their lesson" from them.
of course but they also were about religion
I'd say they were the epitome of christian violence (against non-christians) and from then on it decreased overall
after enough of the desasters that were the crusades they stopped doing them altogether
are you kidding me? do you have any idea what they did in the name of the lord to the indigenous people of the new world throughout the 14th century onwards??
Number of deaths in the crusades- 1,000,000
Number of deaths in the colonization of the Americas- 59,000,000+
