"Truth" about Islam from an ex-Muslim

[Saga]

i can show u verses from quran that prove otherwise.....

i can show you lots of verses in the bible (old testament) that shows a lot of violence..
believe it or not i did read the whole old testament because it's like a novel and very entertaining.
there's a lot of violence in it. Does that make Christianity a violent religion?

andy, even sharia courts have provisions for the so called blood money for crimes committed.

my church and its leadership has acknowledged that crimes have been committed against innocents and have made redress by not only addressing the pecuniary demands of the victims but by humble apologies in the name of my church. in truth i respect my church more because of it. some catholic clergy are now even serving prison time for their abuse.

have any of your mosques ever taken responsibility for the crimes comitted against humanitiy instigated by those who preach in them?! i have yet to hear even an apology from those responsible, not even from those who gave venue to those violent extremist islamist preaching imams ! never !

my church teaches us to to love our neighbor as our selves. it also teaches us that there is no greater love than to give our lives for our fellow men. a very (for the lack of a better term) noble ideal that i am ready to do. if a catholic-christian woman can do that, i certainly believe you can too

have faith, no fear but protect the innocent

this is a stupid analogy.... do u see Christians blowing up planes into buildings?

then find the time to read. like i said, browse the thread. there have been lots of arguements already.

sorry but if u insist then i would just conclude that ur statement about islam not being a violent relgion is invalid....

remember, you were the one to point out that you can see a lots of verses in quran that is violent

as if you were saying that because quran shows violence in it's verses makes Islam a violent religion also.

the old testament shows everyone especially christians where they have been

Jesus Christ showed today's christians where they are to go and that is to love their neighbors as thy self nice no ?!

i believe that the advent of Jesus Christ directs all those who are capable of love into a new path of peace and redemption

c'mon bro if we don't like all that violence, let us not go that way

i can show u verses from quran that prove otherwise.....
