#1 Every Orthodox Church in Muslim dominated sections of Kosovo has either been desecrated or destroyed. Some of the frescos and murals dated to the 14th century. From the burning of the Alexandria Library, for its possession of works that did not conform to what "Allah said" in the koran, the the Taliban's destruction of the Buddhas, Islam practices a scorched earth policy to other cultures.

#2 As I recal, the library at Alexandria was actually burned by the Christians. Many religions have things like this in their closets.

Of course, most religions grow out of it.
