You are free to believe what you will. It doesn't change the truth.

The Qur'an – the revelation Muslims believe was given to the prophet Muhammad as a remedy – identifies three sets of books from the Bible as genuine divine revelation given to trusted messengers: the Tawrat (Torah) given to Musa (Moses), the Zabur (Psalms) given to Daud (David) and the Injil (Gospel) given to Isa (Jesus). Together, the Qur'an, these books and the now-unknown Suhuf Ibrahim ["Scrolls of Abraham"] constitute Islam's scripture. Belief that this scripture is divinely inspired is one of Islam's fundamental tenets, but, since all scripture before the Qur'an is also held to have become corrupted, Muslims are directed to take guidance from the Qur'an alone."

There is a creator God that created the heavens, the earth, the seas and all that are in them and He was the God of Abraham. That is about it.
"Some of the people found in both the Qur'an and the Bible include; Aaron, Abel, Abraham, Adam, Cain, David, the disciples of Jesus, Elias, Elisha, Enoch, Eve, Ezra, Goliath, Isaac, Ishmael, Jacob, Jesus, John the Baptist, Jonah, Joseph, Lot, Mary, Moses, Noah, the Pharaohs of Egypt, Samuel, Saul, Solomon, and Zacharias".

If any one who calls themselves Christians (or any label or religion ) and then starves women and children then they are evil period !! plain and simple
It was not an statement that any one religion is right or an argument saying Christians are better than or more righteous than Muslims.....However a group or sect that does this no matter the badge they claim is evil

The article says 79 in 2013.
edit: Found an article citing 182 executions in 2014 up to August.
mmm must admit I wasn't aware of the escalation.
How many does the USA execute?
I remember Texas topping 50 in 2000.
I am an opponent of the death penalty. Can any its proponents explain how decapitation as a form of capital punishment is, to any meaningful degree, all that different from hanging someone by the neck, injecting them with something poisonous, electrocuting them, or shooting them? As for execution in public or not in public, it's surely just a cultural thing and depends on one's approach to deterrence? I find the carrying out of the death penalty in either venue objectionable.
Originally posted by FMFAmericans believe in "freedom of the press" and don't believe one should be executed without due process to prove being guilty of a crime that justifies the death penalty. Not being a Muslim and reporting the news is not a criminal offense nor is it worthy of death by beheading or any other method.
