:salamext:

War has been a major factor in the expansion for every religion.

[arabiyyah]

The fact that people copmplain about such small lands being ocupied when you see all the occupation and expansion that has taken place because of religion makes these people seem kind of not knowing much.

Not Sikh - Find me proof as you say every.

Self defence, not to spread a relgion by force. BIG difference!!

After the battles, did Sikh's control more land?

Yes, but it was not taken by force it belonged to us. After it non-Sikh were not presecuted but tolerated. Just as it should be! So there! :p

This is is how tolerance should prevail

Did I ever mention that the wars were not justified? :rant:
Did I ever mention that persecution was included? :rant:

War is a massave part of human history. :mad: It has been practiced by every group.

If I was any calmer I would go back to sleep.
It is nice to see some one else recognize reality and not deney it. :smile:

Its interesting but its not that accurate i think. There is still Islam where Christianity is and Christianity where Islam is etc. I think they're goin by dominance of each religion in a region.

[Pygoscelis]

It is a bit misleading and pro-religious. It doesn't show the thousands of cultures and religions that were destroyed by the current big players.

It starts as showing no religion existing in many regions, when religions did exist in them.

It also omits to mention several large religions that don't fit into the abrahamic mold. It mentions only Hinduism and Buddhism???? Where is Taoism? Jainism? Confucious? Shinto?

Calm down dear it's only the net! - And don't argue with me, I'm infallible! :p

[DAWUD_adnan]

wow, did you see that for most of time islam(submission to the will of God) has been the biggest, but at the end christianity just jumped ! you know colonies and stuff
