With all the hatred spoken about Muslims and their Islamic faith, the Christians back then were not being very Christian. Over the years I think Christian views have improved  by being more open minded and forgiving. Even if the Christians back then thought the Islamic was of like was barbaric, they should of made the effort of at least just leaving the Muslims live their own life instead of targeting their anger and violence towards them. The Christians were pretty much creating their own sins, making their nasty views on the Islamic religion known. I thought that the passage "the more extreme Christians moved north and the remaining Christians coexisted peacefully with their Muslim neighbors", was kind of funny because, it just seems like if you were an extreme christian you would be more forgiving and offer everything you have, trying to  kindly convert the Muslims to their way of living , but in this case it means more hatred to those who are not Christian.
