Islam began in Arabia in the 7th Century. In 632 Muslims (followers of Islam) invaded Palenstine and Mesopotemia. In 636, Egypt and Syria were invaded and in the 8th Century Pakistan. You're right they didn't invade a nation, more like 5. Conservatism, I repeat is not an ideology. It does not breed fanatics....But if you want men who seek, reasonably and prudently, to reconcile the best in wisdom of our ancestors with the change which is essential to a vigorous civil social existence, then you will do well to turn to conservative principles -Russell Kirk- | ||||||||||||||||||||||

See my previous post for the invasions. As for killing and torturing, I have already pointed out the Dutch cartoonist, and let us not forget the murder of Van Gogh. Islamist clearly state that either a person should convert to Islam or be killed. This is their belief. Mohammed himself would kill those who would not convert. "Muhammad is the Apostle of Allah. Those who follow him are merciful to one another, but ruthless to unbelievers" Sura 48:29. "Kill the Mushrikun (unbelievers) wherever you find them, and capture them and besiege them, and lie in wait for them in each and every ambush..." Sura 9:5. Tell me what oil have we taken from Iraq??? None. If we had do you truly think that our gas prices would be where they are, of course not, just another myth you try to force as fact. Do 80% of Iraqi want the United States to leave Iraq, yes that is the number, but when these polls were taken and the word now was added the number dropped to 20%. Furthermore the official elected government, the government elected by the people of Iraq themselves, come now you remember the 12 million Iraqi's with purple fingers don't you, has actually stated that they want the United States to remain until the nation stabilizes. So other than myths and falsehoods what have your provided, not a thing! dmk Conservatism, I repeat is not an ideology. It does not breed fanatics....But if you want men who seek, reasonably and prudently, to reconcile the best in wisdom of our ancestors with the change which is essential to a vigorous civil social existence, then you will do well to turn to conservative principles -Russell Kirk- | ||||||||||||||||||||||

Thats just cause your blinded to the evil of Islam. The Koran was written 600 years after the new test, so it would make more sence to compare the new test to the Koran. Go ahead, I'll wait. The biggest difference between the two that I can see is the "moderates" of Islam refuse to speak against the evil there religon. Where as Christains will be the first to tell a fellow believer that there fucking up. And thats all the difference in the world. | ||

Jesus was, arguably, the purest, most peaceful and best man who ever lived. His teaching were fantastic, and his life matched his teachings. After moving to Medina, Muhammad became a war-mongering, murderous savage. He perseonally led his armies into many battles, and his followers slaugthered literally thousands upon thousands of people. If you were going to pick one "founder" whose followers were more likely to be peaceful, which one would it be? If you were going to pick one "founder" whose followers were more likely to be blood-thirsty savages, which one would it be? | ||||||||||||||||||||||

You just answered you own question with your last sentence. We are judging them by their actions. Last edited by alias; 11-30-2006 at 12:08 PM. | ||||||||||||||||||||||

| I am not blind to the evil words contained in the Qu'ran, just as I am not blind to the evil actions of some Muslims. But I am also not blind to the fact that not every Muslim follows the evil parts of the Qu'ran, and not every Muslims hurts people. I judge each Muslim by his actions, not the actions of someone else. Quote:
I am aware that the New Testament is not so harsh as the Old, but the Old is still the word of God, is it not? That some Christians choose not to follow the Old Testament proves only that a follower of a religion need not follow all of the laws of that religion. A Christian might not follow the evil parts of the Bible, while a Muslim might not follow the evil parts of the Qu'ran. Quote:
Think about your own actions. Do you point out that the Old Testament is evil? Do you point out that the actions of Christian leaders in the Dark and Middle Ages were evil? Do you point out that the actions of those who worsen the lives of gay people are evil? Maybe you do at least one of those, but if so, you are unlike most others I have met. -Jaxian | |||||||||||||||||||||||

If you are talking about more recently, well I have no example of mass murder, but I can provide examples of individual murders if you like. Despite these things, I do not call Christians evil. I call murderers evil. If a Christian is a murderer, he is evil. If he's a kind, generous person, he is not. Quote:
