#5  Dunno, #4 NA, but I know Charles Martel stopped the moslem invaders in (what is now) France around 800 AD.

Of course, that was a looooooong time ago. Things might have changed....

#2  RE: The siege of Vienna in 1683
I strumbled onto this blog a few weeks ago and love it. I also began to think what a GREAT movie that would make. That is if there is a modern market about a "Christian Coalition" stopping the violent expansion of Islam.

#1  Excellent! Glad to see someone finally made the connection.

Then today, I read Jonah GoldbergÂ’s essay on the issue. He brought it all back, as fresh as the day I put the final period to my conclusions:

In death-penalty cases, “reasonable doubt” goes to the accused because unless we’re certain, we must not risk an innocent’s life. This logic goes out the window when it comes to abortion, unless you are 100-percent sure that babies only become human beings after the umbilical cord is cut. I don’t see how you can be that sure, which is why I’m pro-life - not because I’m certain, but because I’m not. [emphasis mine - D ]
