Radical Christianity equals Radical Islam?

So Rosie O'Donnell is more worried about "radical Christians" than terrorism I guess. But she's not the only person out there saying this stuff. Bill Maher says it all the time. Air America reportedly says it too.

Just wondering - how many Christians, radical or not, have captured and beheaded innocent people lately? Have any Christians flown airplanes into big buildings? Maybe they've strapped explosives to their bodies and blown themselves up on buses or trains?

Heard any Christians say that all who refuse to convert to Christianity will be destroyed? Has anyone performed any violent act specifically in the name of Jesus Christ?

The more "moderate" and "reasonable" people have been out telling us how we should change our policies in the war on terror. A long line of mostly Democrat politicians are laying out their alternatives to the war, and it goes something like this.

America should stop waging an offensive war, and change our focus on hearts and minds. Somehow if we can prove our moral superiority and better way just by being nice and friendly and negotiating in good faith with the terror sponsor states, they will suddenly see the light. We have to stop fighting in Afghanistan and Iraq and turn to diplomacy. This will be successful solely through the force of personality from nice people like Bill Clinton and Jimmy Carter, booting George Bush from office first, of course, and replacing him with a Democrat. Then everyone will gradually learn to love us and the world will be a wonderful place.

The naivete of it all is stunning.
