"..all the congregation shall stone him; the sojourner as well as the native, when he blasphemes the Name, shall be put to death."

This is very different from the false Islam god. The verse you refer to above is directed to the Jews living "in the Holy Land."

No, not "very different." You're straining here. Had this passage been in the Koran, I think you'd use it against them.

YES, it is very different. In the book of Leviticus God is giving laws to only the JEWS and how THEY will live within the borders of the Holy Land. This is entirely different from the Koran's "kill the infidel where you find them." I don't think the world would mind if Muslims' kept their "Sharia" law within the borders of Afghanistan, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Syria, Pakistan, Jordan, Iraq (just how many nations do they need?). However, when they started forcing THEIR religious laws on the rest of the world... it's an entirely different matter. Muslims immigrating all over the world and causing unrest in every nation as they seek to implement their religious/political views on the nations they quietly invade. (Pretty convenient that Muslim men are allowed to marry 4 women, pretty much for breeding, that's a good way to build a religion).

In the book of Leviticus God has brought His people out of Eygypt and given them back the lands that had been promised to their heirs Abraham, Isaac and Jacob (Israel). God directed them to destroy the inhabitants of the land because of their pagan acts. God also told them to not show pity on them but to destroy every man, woman, child and animal. These directions were limited to war to establish God's Holy Land during this time. Wars conducted outside the Holy Land, with neighbors did not have such instructions. Unfortunately, the Jews did show pity on several of the inhabitants, and as the Bible predicted, they have been a "thorn in their side" ever since.
