Like the Bible, it is all how you interprete it.


Let's me fair. The Bible has been used to justify many atrocities too.

An example.

Islamic cover themselves head to foot and even hide their faces with a Chandor.

The Koran, however, only has one reference to this: -

"Women should be modest". (Rough translation)

The rest is interpretation.

The interpretations can only go from behead everyone that doesn't believe in your version of islam, or behead only infidels.

I don't see much wiggle room here. However, they do seem to be using 'behead' in a more general way, such as 9/11 style 'decapitation' strikes that'll eventually go nuclear.

That's interesting.
I guess you've never read the Bible, huh?

"Let's me fair. The Bible has been used to justify many atrocities too".

It's true that some in the past have used Christianity to advance their own political or ideological position.

That doesn't mean that the Lord condones it.

In all honesty, those who perform any atrocities in the name of the God of the Bible are few and far in between today, and can be easily spotted-this is true, because they stand in direct opposition to the teachings of Christ.

One cannot tell which of the Muslims oppose the militant actions on their own side.

Jews and Christians aren't slaughtering people all over the planet, as jihadis are. I am sick of the moral relativism which equates Jews and Christians with Islamists. It's got to stop. Facts must be faced.

Beheadings allowed by Islam, but only in extreme situations...

There are no "situations" wherein Jews or Christians allow beheadings.
