Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Not clear thesis or logic
The first title of the book is about the Crusades or 'Christian Jihad' and one would therefore expect to find a long condemnation of how CHristian holy war is the same as Muslim Jihad and thus Christianity is not 'innocent' and 'just as bad' as Jihadism. But then the second part of the title, 'former Muslims' distracts the reader and makes one wonder what exactly is being said here.
It seems the logic here is that Christianity is the religion of choice and has the potential to be better ... Read More
Rating:  - Inaccurate research of the Crusades
Former Muslims Look at the Crusades and try to tell their story.
No such thing as Christian Jihad only Christian defence from Islamic aggression.We all now that Crusades have been reaction on Muslims killings
of many Christian pilgrims and aggression motivated by ambition for land in 11th century.Let's not forget that Spain had already been swept over by Islamic aggression by the time of the First Crusade..

Christian Jihad : unfinished tasks.
"Do not predict the ending from the beginning." It was true for this book I read. Yet found not only true for this book but for everything in nature we never know how God is going to use what and how the means for His purpose.

Rating: - The Crusades were not carried out by Christians
A Christian is someone who seeks to follow Christ. The Crusades were carried out by the Catholic Church which is NOT a Christian orginazation!
Roman Catholics follow man-made rules and worship men. The Bible, which is Jesus in Word, since He is the Word made flesh, explicitly tells us not to follow man-made rules over God's, or to worship men, (see Matthew 23). Islam was created by the Catholic Church, and their plan back-fired on them. See the testimony of Alberta Rivera at chick.com, who was a Jesuit ... Read More
Rating: - Christian Jihad
I am nearly finished with this book and have found it very enlightening and thought provoking. In other reviews here I have read that there is no such thing as a Christian Jihad. Although that may be technically true with regards to semantics- I would challenge the idea that there is no such thing as a Christain Jihad in spiritual or ideological terms, as an American Indian and Christian who is well versed in history, politics and foreign policy. Christianity itself may not be completely responsible for ... Read More
