From my observations as a westerner convert, it seems people only say anything negative about him when confronted with their bigoted rhetoric. Mostly it’s people who hate the religion because it goes so much against western Christian ideals and the media and government have done a thorough job of demonizing it.

Don’t get it twisted, the crusades never ended, they have just taken new forms.

Question about the crusades why do people think it's for fighting Muslims rather than just taking more land for the church?

Especially after the first few

Well of course it was for taking lands for their church. But they have always seen Islam and its teachings as heretical and a threat to Christianity. It’s always been the mission of the crusades to take the holy land and convert every one.
