on his quest to show how Islam is backward and evil.
And while I know he is a right wing American gun nut,
I happen to agree with him that Islam is a backward
evil form of religion and it should be curbed if not outlawed.
It is high time people woke up to what Islam truly is.
Islam is a backward oppressive dogmatic evil form of control
and has kept its violent side right up to this present day.
Education and enlightenment has shown the rest of us that progress
is necessary to continue to survive and work in harmony together as
a human family. This involves enlightenment and education for all.
Men and women with equal education and status in society.
The Catholic and Protestant religions have realized this.
Islam does not recognize this. It oppresses women and refuses
them education.
In my humble opinion the world might be a better place without religion
but Islam is the worst of the whole bad bunch.

What you're talking about is RADICAL Islam.
Maybe you should contact a mosque in your area and ask if you can possibly sit in to 'observe' one of their services? (If that's allowed, I have no idea if they'd even let you do that.) Maybe be sure to try one that has their services in English so you can follow along.
Maybe you can go 'see for yourself' what Islam 'truly is'.
Originally posted by SuzianneSuzianne, my sweet, the problem is that they all read out of the same book. The only difference is that the less radical Muslims don't know the book very well and have less radical teachers. They are like Christians who go to church, but pay little attention to reading the Holy Bible and just listen to the sermons. Thank God there are not too many Reverend Wrights in Christian churches to listen to.

Originally posted by RJHindsThis reminds me of something that was happening quite frequently several years ago. There were people that called themselves 'Christians' that would blow up abortion clinics and shoot the doctors, one such act occured not to far from my home. People associated these 'Christians' with other people that called themselves Christians and called them... terrorists (but had nothing to do with those acts or movements) I didn't like it nor did others. While I see abortion as atrocious, I would not kill or destroy someones property to get my point heard, it is not the Christian way and it is not right.

To associate me or other Christians with that fringe element was not only wrong but unfair, it reminds me of the way you categorize muslims. While I find the islamic faith to be in conflict with my own faith, we live in a free country where we are able to worship who and however we want.
There are 'talking heads' selling books, getting air time that spread fear to their own ends, don't fall prey to their methods. There is so much more to the Kingdom of God than who the antichrist is. Remember satan is the created, Jesus is the creator and greater than all of this, he wins in the end. The future has already been written!

Originally posted by robbie carrobieNot sure what you are getting at, but I suppose it has to do with who Jesus is? If so, I know there is a fundamental difference between what the JW believe regarding Jesus and what other Christians (myself included) believe which is related to bible translation (among other things). I don't subscribe to the NWT and don't care to debate it.

If this is not what you are alluding to, would you elaborate?
Originally posted by kd2aczwhether you subscribe to it or not is irrelevant, whether you wish to debate it or not is also irrelevant, Jehovahs Witness are not the only Christians who hold the view, in fact the only reason that you and other Christians hold the view that you do is because of your church tradition, tradition formed after the rejection of Ariansim, indeed, unless you know something about translation, i dont think you have any real way of knowing what is an accurate translation and what it not and probably, most typically, like other Christians have simple taken it upon trust, blindly and unquestioningly that what you have in your particular language is accurate. The fact of the matter is, irrespective of what you want to believe, irrespective of your traditions is that the scriptures indicate that Christ was a created entity. Biblical fact.

Originally posted by RJHindsAnd its also a good thing most christians don't know what is in the bible which they believe in to their death. Then they also would be forced to follow rules that will get people killed, just like in the Quran. BOTH religions are wacko.
