The bad guys don't give a **** about peace.
Their goal is to spread the word of Allah through the killing of us non-believers.

Wrong. They are not spreading the word of Allah. They are spreading the word of their leaders. Don't mis-interupt that.

Wrong.
They are attempting to spread Islam through any means necessary.
Here's a list of recent Muslim-provoked attacks.

Here's how they spread the word of Allah. Her "crime" was being a Christian.


Here's how Islam treats homosexuals.

When are you "Give Peace A Chance" types gonna realize, until Islam undergoes a Reformation, you're fair game.

You still don't get it. Read the damn Quran before you make such wild assumptions. Or better yet if you think muslim extremist are spreading Islam then what are extremist christians spreading? Please Oaf enlighten me! Oh and I can post pictures of abortions clinics being blown up and doctors being killed too if you'd like.

Get a clue.

You cannot be serious. Comments like this lead me to believe you haven’t read one sentence in the Qur’an. I'd like to know what in the holy hell you derived from the Qur’an besides a bunch of repetitive contradictions and blabbering. I've read it twice and Oaf has at least once from what he’s mentioned here before.

The Qur’an doesn't hold a candle to haddith interpretations, preaching’s, (etc) from those radicals Islamist leaders that influence extremist actions. The fact the Qur’an is so vague in it’s foundation is precisely why Islamic extremist leaders had to establish their own interpretations on haddiths and texts!

The rest of your post makes NO sense either.

So if Christianity is capable of blowing up abortion clinics then how am I supposed to be enlightened on what Islam is capable or incapable of when reading the Qur'an?

Wouldn't Islam be capable of the same types of faults you pointed out for Christianity? You really do sympathize for these *******s, don't you?

Why can’t you ever give Islam credit for being riddled with hate as swiftly as you dish it out for Christianity?

I dont see the corrolation between the Jerry Falwells of the world and Muslim extremists / jihadists. Granted, Christians have a spotted record, but the faith in and of itself is quite different than that of the Muslim faith. I have never come across anything in the New Testament that encouraged me to deliver death to the infidels. Spread the word, yes; kill non-believers, no.

I agree with Salty on this one. Unregistered, clearly you dont hold Christians in the highest regard and that is your right. However, I would encourage you to refrain from far-reaching parallels that are hard-pressed to prove as those accusations taint your otherwise solid and factual posts.

Just my .o2

Whats being argued here is irrelevent. ANY RELIGION, taken to the extreme, will produce violence. There is nearly no religion out there that has not been taken over by extremists at one point or another besides maybe Buddhism. The Qua'ran, Bible, whatever are all vauge as Salty pointed out but it is not a charactaristic of just one. Anybody who says Christianity has not been taken to these extremes needs to read up on their history.

I too have read both and personally don't see much of a diffrence in message. The Qua'ran seems slighly more violent in nature, but not to the extremes these people are taking it today. Really, religion is how you interpret it. If you have somebody preaching you hate, saying THAT is what this text says, you are more likely to believe it as is the case right now. This problem comes along when those who teach the text have a political agenda behind their words beyond that of spreading the word. The goal of Islam, or Chrisitanity is not to kill non-believers but to spread the word.

That's definitely true. Im reading a book right now about the canonizing of the bible. Very interesting stuff, and yes, some things will always be open to interpretation within any given religion.

Um, no. The quran literally says to kill non-believers.
""Fight and slay the Unbelievers wherever ye find them. Seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them in every stratagem of war."Qur'an, Sura 9:5"

Go suck on that for a minute.

Hahaha why so testy?

To try to compare suicide bombers that kill innocent civilians and children to people that kill abortion doctors because "God made me do it" is a leap. If that really is the first thing that comes to your mind in the defense of beheadings, then you are seriously deranged.

Go show me anything "Christian" that compares to this:
www.thereligionofpeace.com

When terrorism is the mainstream for a religion, you cannot call terrorists extremists!

The bible tells people to kill others too:

Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him. But all the women children, that have not known a man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves.

Then they began at the ancient men which were before the house.

Man, you stupid or something? That was historical context to killing, and pertained to Jews.

Christians live by the New Testament, FYI.

Those quotes have as much relavance to modern times as your quotes from the Qu'ran, because as you and others have said most Muslims don't use the Qu'ran as the central part of their religion...it's an auxillery, sort of how you learn about the old testament in sunday school if you're christian.


I've curbed my desire to insult you at every chance I get, how about you grow up.
