Hmmm.  I don't know as much about the subject matter as I should.  I guess 
the longest 'battle' in the past millenium has been the back and forth for 
dominance between Islam and the rest of the world.  

Islam is spreading more rapidly, than Christianity and other religions, so 
the next century they might have the upper hand.  I've dealt with people from 
almost all cultures, religions, and ethnicities.  But, I don't remeber ever 
knowing, in any meaningful way; a Muslim.  I've known people from the Middle 
East, but always Christian or Jewish.  One of my Lebanese friends had Muslim 
family; but his immediate family was Christian.

Probably, there will be much more interaction in the future.  Maybe the more 
oppressive traits of Islam can be subjuagated over time, juast as occured 
with the more oppressive strains of Judaism and Christianity.
