    Anyway, when I am saying about burning people to death..I am not talking about Sunni/Shiite..They don't burn people to death..but hundreds of year ago...People from a "religion" did that...read the history...

    It isn't non muslims responsibility to "educate" extremists (And in fact if anyone even suggests that, its thrown back at them and served up as justification of terrorist attacks). It has to be from within the faith.

    muslim/christian/jews is a label given by us to people...to god, we are all the same...its either we believe in god, or we don't... and to educate them is a job to be taken by everyone... that is how we progress in this world... "knowledge" comes from god through us... we learn "math" from a math teacher, physics from a physics teacher...we are the "student" and the 'teacher"... we learn and we teach... true Christianity/Islam is about knowledge...you will only get closer to god by having knowledge...that is why knowledge is important.....

    Wrong, read the Quran. There is more violence in the Quran than in the books from the KKK.

    Watched the video...I can say that...That was really barbaric, God never asked anybody to do that let it be Jews, Muslim, Christian,Buddhist,Hindu,Mormon, Zootarian etc...But too bad, so many god wannabe on this planet....I really hope people who follow what their leaders said blindly will start seeking knowledge...they really need to be civilized and realized they are not doing god a favour...they are just making a big sin in the name of god...

    Blogmaster,


    I am starting to believe that you're very immature and lack of knowledge in the subject but still acting as if you know a lot about Quran. Go back and study Bible. I hope you will be enlightened and be a good Christian that obey god's command instead of spreading hatred. God doesn't like people who are full of hatred. May god bless you!

    See thats the point. Despite the fact that the Bible mentions stoning, you don't see people out stoning other people in the name of their relegion.

    You say God didn't tell them to do that, I can accept that point, but why aren't people stopping them? Although not every leader within Islam openly supports things like the London Bombings, the majority at least "understand" it or call it justified.

    Thats what I am talking about so if you come into a forum and lay 100% of the blame on other people without putting the majority on those within your own religion that condone this misrepresentation of your religion, it severely hurts your credibility.

    If a guy kills an abortion doctor and claims he did it for God, there is outrage amongst Christians and insistence that this guy doesn't represent their religion. When Church leaders are asked if they condone it, they speak openly that they do not.

    That in my opinion is the difference and why your posts have only further propped up those ideals.

    What people are forgetting is that "stoning to death" was a heavy penalty in the Mosaic Law. In fact it was clearly written about when a man was found to be gathering firewood on the Sabbath. However, the Mosaic Law was surpassed by the new covenant set by Jesus in ~30CE.

    Unfortunately, there are some who just can't seem to let go of some things.

    You don't see it happening today. Let's not forget history though. :(

    I fully accept it happened historically and it was as wrong and as stupid as it is today.

    But that doesn't make it right when others do it in the name of religion today.

    Now Zarul

    This are your brothers and not just they, look at the crowd. This happens in almost every muslim country.

    You must say We, you're one of those, because you associate with them. There is something called collective guilt. As long as you guys don't realize that it will not end. But we can end it in the west.

    Henny covered this once. For whatever reason, people like to refer to the Old Testament when attempting to draw upon moral equivalence, but you never see someone making a point about violence from the New Testament. I wonder why?

    Apply the Old Testament to today's standards:

    Seems kind of silly, doesn't it?
