When one group is favored over another it often brings resentment rather than understanding and peace.
Muslim kids get a safe space but other kids that are consistently bullied aren't?
We've seen over and over kids that commit suicide or become violent because of consistent bullying. Sometimes they are bullied over things they over no power over whatsoever. Aspy kids are often bullied and they have serious issues with understanding why. They are so hurt that they become seriously depressed. Adults will accuse them of lying because they often cannot make eye contact when conversing. Believe me they need a safe place more than most.

You're right.
If we adults and our children understood more about different people, there would be less bullying.

Ignorance is mean.

I just wonder how Spain got rid of the Muslim savages that invaded their land. I'm sure it wasn't by providing safe spaces and curbing Muslm bullying.

...I don't mind Muslim bullying to be honest, and I teach my kids to never trust them. I'll fight for my culture.

No, Spain forcibly and violently evicted anyone who wasn't Christian, and, in doing so, it crippled itself, economically and intellectually.

It never recovered.

You don't mind Muslim bullying?
Bullying is okay?

People bullied Jesus, you know.
I bet Jesus wouldn't like bullying.

Arrrgh...why do people keep referring to Islam as a religion.

It is an ideology, so should be named Islamism, like communism, socialism, etc.
Until this is realized, this kind of nonsense will continue to grow with the PC agenda.
I have no problem with them teaching kids about Islamism, but do you think they are going to teach them about christianity, no, they still teach them we came from monkeys.
Its a double standard!

Yes, schools teach about religions, indirectly.
They teach about Christianity and evolution, etc.
But schools can only teach ABOUT these ideas.
The individual must decide what to believe.
Schools can only provide information.

When I went to school, we were not taught anything about religions. My daughter, in 9th grade was taught that the Jews showed up in the time of the pharaohs and were sheep herders. I don't remember some of the other things, but I couldn't believe it. I don't think any religion should be taught in public schools. I also don't think they should be talking about LGBT issues to young impressionable children either.

Many of the evicted non-Christians were intellectuals.
They took their knowledge to other countries.
Spain was left with an unskilled population.

Still, that would be better than living under the rule of a hostile, invading culture, wouldn't it?

Also, Spain was a very respectable country with a wealth of intellectual people of it's own -both before and after the invasions. I don't believe they needed to rely on anyone other than themselves... The Muslims ruined Spain.

Gee, that seems like an objective and non agenda driven understanding, they should totally teach that.
Yeah, they should teach the truth, but they won't. Islamic scholars have no problem admitting it but those who want to deceive others will not.

Spain has always struggled with poverty and poor soil.
Even with the steady influx of gold from the conquest of the New World, Spain could not improve the lives of its own Christians.
It used the gold to fight a Christian vs. Christian war in the Netherlands instead.
Nobody won.
Spain began to lose influence after that.

Really? How does a country cripple itself, and then shortly after become arguably the strongest empire on Earth at the time? Doesn't make any sense. If that is what being crippled means, then I will take it because that sounds great.

They expelled the invaders, occupiers and those who worked along side them.

How did they become wealthy?
By conquest.
I don't think conquest is great.

Where was the decline? Supposedly they declined after they expelled the invaders but all I see is Spain flourishing. Things became much better once they were gone so what is your evidence based on?

History.

Things did not get better for the Spanish PEOPLE after Spain evicted non-Christians.
Spanish royalty remained comfortable, but the Spanish people lived hard-scrabble lives.
Poor management doomed Spain.
After that, the only wealth Spain could acquire was wealth it could acquire violently, by conquest.
Conquest is just stealing, really.
And stealing isn't good.

But Spain conquered the New World, obtained the fabulous South American gold, and spent it on luxuries and war.
The Spanish nobility "flourished" temporarily, but they squandered their resources, again, and nobody really profited.
I'll-gotten gains don't last.

The Spanish nobility also had ideas about keeping their wealth "in the family."
They were ignorant of the consequences of incest.
Their practice of incest resulted in the famous Habsburg jaw.
The last Habsburg king died drooling.

You're totally missing the point, which is that Muslim Moors violently invaded Spain, which is "stealing", and "stealing isn't good". But rather, you choose to condemn the Christians, who suffered tragedy for throwing out their own conquerors! Makes little sense. Do you think you would condemn the New World if they managed to throw out the Spanish? I doubt it.

...I don't know that you even understand the magnitide of the Islamic Conquests, which brought rise to the crusades later on in time, as the following video explains.

No, I'm saying the Moors brought trade and commerce and ideas when they moved into Spain.
The Christian people benefited.
The violent ejection of Jews and Muslims did not profit Spain.
It created ill will and hardship.

And yes, I know about the Islamic conquests...
And look where all these human "conquests" have brought us...

I don't think conquest is the answer to anything.
It just brews more conquest.
I don't think fighting "other people" is the answer to anything.
Afterwards, we'll just fight each other...
Even more than we do now...
