IMO, there are a few people on this very forum who call themselves Christians that are pretty offensive.

I certainly agree.

Islam went south due to the elevation of the prophet Muhammad to a near God like status and the bad interpretations that followed.

Had they elevated Jesus, who they revere as well but to a much lesser degree, the events of the past thirteen hundred years may well have never occurred.

Those who advocate attacking the religion and eliminating it, are totally ignorant of the historical results of doing such and are not worthy of a reply.IMO.(on any subject)

What I can never understand is why they don't get the concept of "There but for the grace of God..."

Any one of us could have been born in another country, another race, or to another religion.

My religion teaches me not to throw stones.
