Your comment:
"Do you have a prejudice against Christians?" No
Why do you connect prejudice against Muslims specifically with Christianity?
"Why should Jim reflect on Christian views in respect to this Omar matter?"
To claim that because she is a Muslim, therefor she is a bigot and hates Jews is wrong.
Some Christian sects have and continue to conduct religious wars, torture and otherwise attack people of other religions, just as some sects of Muslims do to this day, don't tar everyone with the same brush.
Your confusing sects of a religion with the tenets of the religion in its foundational structure. There is nothing in the founding tenets of Christianity that in anyway commands the oppression of Muslims or of anybody else. The foundational structures of Islam, the Koran, the Sunnah, and the Hadith, specifically command oppression, even death, of non-Muslims, including Jews and Christians.
"And hasn't past Christian oppression been duly criticized and reversed?"
Does that mean that self examination is bad or were you a "great" student like someone who must not be named and like him, do not understand that history repeats?

Are you suggesting that a Jesus Christ will be repeated? Or that the conquests and slaughter perpetrated by Mohammad will be repeated?

What i am suggesting is that just as the Inquisition, the Crusades, was fomented by the Catholic Church, and other attacks done in the name of God by other religion or sects, that it can happen again and likely will.

Men, in looking at religion, their own and others often read things into the writings that they want to see. That doesn't make it correct, except in their own mind.
Among the people there is he whose discourse on the life of the world pleases you, and he calls on God as witness to what is in his heart, yet he is an unyielding and antagonistic adversary. When he turns and leaves, he walks about corrupting the earth, destroying crops and livestock – God loves not corruption (Q2:204–205)

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!
Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?
