The Koran, in contrast, is deemed by Islam’s adherents to be a direct transcript of Allah’s many commands, including these belligerent commandments
"I will cast terror into the hearts of those who have disbelieved, so strike them over the necks, and smite over all their fingers and toes.
Fight in the way of Allah those who fight you but do not transgress. Indeed. Allah does not like transgressors.
So when you meet those who disbelieve [in battle], strike [their] necks until, when you have inflicted slaughter upon them, then secure their bonds, and either [confer] favor afterwards or ransom [them] until the war lays down its burdens."
Former President Barack Obama and other leaders in the Democratic Party have repeatedly suggested that Islam is not more violent than other religions. Obama told Muslims in February 2016 that Islam means “peace,” although it actually means “submission.”
Similarly, a Feb. 3 letter signed by three senior Democratic legislators in the House argued that “there are other three million Americans who practice Islam peacefully. The specter that there would be a Federal program that—in name and action—singles out people of a particular faith warrants immediate [critical] consideration by the Department of Justice.”
Progressive and left-wing activists say much violence is caused by Christians, although few make the argument that the violence is motivated Christian doctrines.
“However, and this will probably shock many, so you might want to take a breath: Overwhelmingly, those who have committed terrorist attacks in the United States and Europe aren’t Muslims,” according to a Daily Beast column emphasizing the role of European nationalist groups in terrorism rates.
The other third have already been beheaded by the ROP.
100% of the surveyed do not really understand either Isalm or Christianity.
DemocRATS hate Christians so I can understand them feeling this way.
Delusion runs deep on The Left
I am so tired of hearing this ridiculous argument.
Yes, there was the Inquisition. But that was long, long ago.
Please show, Dems, of how Islam has done as much for the poor around the world, how it has raised money for charity, cared for people, given selflessly to others, as Christians throughout the world have done.
Not possible.
In their hearts they know it’s not true.
WOW! I have been a Christian for 66 years and have never built a bomb, blown anyone up, shot anyone, beheaded anyone, burned anyone alive, etc etc etc.
Islamic terrorist killed over 20k people last year alone. How many did Christians kill?
Just google keywords muslim Christian along with torture violence attacks terror rape gays women children abuse oppression etc. And you will get thousands of hits, 100% of which mooslims are the attackers perpetrators and Christians are the victims. Idiots.
How to interpret this nonsense? I think its a combination of pure hatred of Christianity as the “Republican / conservative” religion in America, combined with Political Correctness being beaten into them over and over.
Christians always turn the other cheek.
The key is Christians have only two cheeks.
After that, tuck your head between your legs and kiss your ass goodbye.
Just sayn...
5.56mm
sure. everyone goes around chopping each others heads off for free virgins.
Gee, just the other day I was sitting in the pews as the minister urged us all to take up the sword, go to the Middle East and slaughter every Amalekite man, woman, and child.
Oh wait, that never happens.
The Moron Caucus
And most supposed democrats hate Jews too.
Seriously?
Let’s do a comparisln between Christianity and Islam:
Question #1: How many people did Mohammed kill? How many slaves did Mohammed own/and or and sell? How many women did Mohammed rape?
Question #2: How many people did Jesus kill? How many slaves did Jesus own? How many women did Jesus rape?
They’re probably talking about the Crusades, desperately looking for some false equivalency.
They know damn well that in modern times Christians are not violent. If they were afraid of Christians, Hollywood and stand up comics wouldn’t constantly be mocking them.
It’s like when Sting referred to the Tea Party as violent, even though there was absolutely no violence at Tea Party rallies, but tons of violence at Occupy Wall St, among other Left wing protests.
They just slap a label on something....Bush is Hitler, Trump is Hitler, the Israelis are Apartheid Nazis, blah blah blah. Whatever it takes to affirm their worldview in their little social bubbles.
