Your points are well taken, but I was talking what Judaism and Islam teach compared to what Christianity teaches.

As for your observations, (1) Islam is also practiced by choice, as all religions are. In fact, "becoming" a Muslim simply requires affirming that Allah is the (only) God and that Mohamed is his prophet, three times, and believe it.

(2) Judaism is practiced by less than 25 million people on earth. It is really a very small religion numbers-wise. American Jewish community is 2 or 3 % of the total population -- maybe 5 million. In Israel's 6.8 million people, about 5.2 million (77%) are Jewish by religion. All in all, in a world of almost 2 billion Christians and over 1 billion Muslims, Judaism is prominent only because it is at the root of both of these religions.

(3) Jews used terrorist tactics against the British, killing both the military and civilians in the process. So, it's not that they are "above" that; it simply means they have no need for it.

(4) Islam is a threat because of its numbers. Let's not forget that we as a country supported Bosnian and Kosovo Muslims and have made it possible for the extreme Islamic operatives to gain a foothold in that part of Europe. Apparently, our attitude towards Islamic threat is mixed: we maintain cordial relationships with all sorts of undemocratic Islamic regimes, one of which -- Saudi Arabia -- is a cesspool of Islamic radicalism.

Yes, I do realize I didn't reply to what you were actually talking about in the previous post.

Islam is a threat because of its numbers.

Islam is a threat because it is a murderous cult that wants to dominate the world. The fact that it is growing so rapidly just makes it an imminent threat that must be taken seriously, exposed and destroyed. (IMHO)

Lie. When people are born into the religion of the moon good and his unholy scam-artist muhammed (may he burn forever in hell between two pigs), they are killed if they attempt to leave it. Islam is the only religion on Earth that has laws to kill those who repudiate it.

(2) Judaism is practiced by less than 25 million people on earth. It is really a very small religion numbers-wise. American Jewish community is 2 or 3 % of the total population -- maybe 5 million. In Israel's 6.8 million people, about 5.2 million (77%) are Jewish by religion. All in all, in a world of almost 2 billion Christians and over 1 billion Muslims, Judaism is prominent only because it is at the root of both of these religions.

So what? It is the root of the religion of the moon god in that it began in that region.

(3) Jews used terrorist tactics against the British, killing both the military and civilians in the process. So, it's not that they are "above" that; it simply means they have no need for it.

Lie.

Specious restatement of facts. Islam is a threat because it is an evil ideology hiding as a theology. That pedophile (MYBIHFBTP) understood that if you could sell people on the idea that any acts done in the name of "God" are OK would be more potent than just "For King And Country." Satan has been laughing for over a thousand years on his religion and the evil it has (and will) wrought. Our relationship with Saud and other ME countries are a result of Realpolitik -- it doesn't mean we ever will accept the evil religion as anything other than what it is.
