[QUOTE="miccloarch, post: 940454, member: 78309"] If they change the name, they're sort of admitting guilt by association. The Crusades were in response to Muslim expansion, but of course mainstream political discourse doesn't really require reading history texts lol. Who's next? Saracens? This has less to do with NZ than it does Christianity and Islam, and rugby people should just stay out of it, but I suppose they're still in shock and denial. I'm neither Muslim nor Christian by the way, though I have a lot in common with both sides, and I can tell you, holy war is part of the fabric of Abrahamic religion. [/QUOTE]
