I haven't changed my mind on this. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"It's always been founded on violence and oppression and intimidation. It was spread by invasion in its first 150 years and it's carried on.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;"If you look at the world, where you have Islamic people, they actually kill each other more than they killed non-followers of their religion."&lt;span class="sewp6p715658hln" /&gt;&lt;span class="sewmze8dqg1wqq2" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</strong>
