You got it, bromeini.

I'm going to go see Indy 4 on Thursday. A Barnes and Nobles is right next to the cinema. I will buy it then.

In fairness, the Yezidi themselves are not exactly a "religion of peace," either if they can bring themselves to stone to death one of their own.

A 17-year old girl, to boot.

Why? For falling in love with a Muslim boy.

If you can stomach it, the video is easily found.

No one is calling the Yezidi a religion of peace.

It's just that Islam has gotten this bullshit moniker of being called "The Religion of Peace" when the actions of many Moslem religious groups has been anything but peaceful.

I wonder how many of them have been slaughtered by fundamentalist Islamic terrorists.
Lets not pretend that Polytheists in the North American Subcontinent were treated in a peaceful manner by the early Christians.

Um, I don't think anyone is pretending the above.

They're just not mentioning it because it isn't relevant here.

From teh wiki:

"Long long ago, before the days of Islam, Sikander e Aazem came to India. The Two Horned one whom you British people call Alexander the Great. He conquered the world, and was a very great man, brave and dauntless and generous to his followers. When he left to go back to Greece, some of his men did not wish to go back with him but preferred to stay here. Their leader was a general called Shalakash (i.e: Seleucus). With some of his officers and men, he came to these valleys and they settled here and took local women, and here they stayed. We, the Kalash, the Black Kafir of the Hindu Kush, are the descendants of their children. Still some of our words are the same as theirs, our music and our dances, too; we worship the same gods. This is why we believe the Greeks are our first ancestors."
