Being patient.

After reading some more Koran tonight, I had an epiphany.
I realized that some of the worst parts of the Koran were similar to worst parts of the Christian Bible. I now believe many parts of both were misinterpreted.
While I realize that Islam has been violent throughout its history, so has Judeism and Christianity (think Crusades).
I'm not sure I believe in the 72 virgin promise, but I am starting to get Mohammed's believe in a better after-life. I need to read more.
That said, our world has gone to shit. There can be a better place for those who believe.
Yes, I know I've been promoting the opportunity and potential of our original Founding Fathers' intent for years, but they were also persons of faith. I don't know what happened...call it a vision...call it a dream...call it what you like.
This is tough stuff for me. But when you have a "vision" of Abraham, Moses, Jesus, and Mohammed, where do you go?
The last prophet was Mohammed. Yes, I know of his trangressions, the same as others. But his writing are starting to make sense.
Violins in the streets?
Well, the First Testament is some "worst parts" as compared to the early writings of the Koran, since you ask.
C'mon, the World created in 6 days? A single man and a single woman told not to eat some fruit unless they discover they are naked? Please. And exactly what was "paradise" at that time? Being naked with perfect temperature and no bugs and no wild animals and no bacteria or viruses or volcanoes or earthquakes or floods? Oops, that's right, there was flood over the entire planet in Moses' times. He also came down from the Mountain with Tablets in hand from some burning bush.
Mohammed (Blessing Be Upon Him), from Abraham.
Give me one big, honkin’ break. Guess you’ve been asleep the last 30+ years and didn’t notice the ‘fruits’ of this sorry excuse for a ‘religion’.
Then again, it always has been the religion of choice for the weak-minded.
Did you notice the order in which the "worst parts" appeared in each book? The later parts of each book supersede the earlier parts. I think you are making a big mistake. Read Robert Spencer.
Being patient.
You human piece of puke. I have chunks of jerks like you in my stool. Go f*%k you and your Mooselip homo ass-buddies. You make me sick, may you rot in Hell.

The god of the Koran is NOT the God of the Holy Bible, there are way to many differences.
< nitpick>
I thought Ali was Mad Mo’s son-in-law, rather than son.

The more I have read your inanities in this thread, the more I agree with those who say that English is NOT your first language.
I don’t know who you are, but ............get lost.
Obvious Troll is obvious.
Love that kitty viking picture.
Mohammed was a self-admitted pedophile. Muslims believe that "Women are for children, boys are for fun." End of discussion. Piece of tender, young male ass be upon you, you twisted filcher.

God/Allah is Our Shining Light.
Hey now!
If I didn’t have The Voices to guide me, I wouldn’t know what to do.
Have you lost your mind? Please get help. You need it bad!
[nobody’s mentioned that their “point” usually involves a sword, yet?]
Yet in the end, the Bible is still the number 1 best selling book of all time.
...;0)
Why must I go away (get lost)? I don't get to talk of my beliefs? Beliefs that include Abraham, Jesus, and Mohammed - all prophets of our Guiding Light in this vast Universe?
What a bunch of garbage.
