Leviticus 24:16 (KJV) "He who blasphemes the name of the LORD shall be put to death; all the congregation shall stone him; the sojourner as well as the native, when he blasphemes the Name, shall be put to death.

Not terribly different from the present Muslim perspective. Primary difference would be in the definition of blasphemy.

You will find out how absurd your assertion is if you wander through a Muslim neighborhood blaspheming Allah, then wander through a Christian neighborhood blaspheming Jesus or a Jewish area blaspheming ha-Shem.

Actually, if you did A first you wouldn't surVIVE to do B.

You yourself are just blowing smoke, you know these religions are not equal and that Islam is uniquely bloodthirsty, nothing else on earth that passes for a religion anywhere is so violent and vicious.

Thank you for that.

"the sojourner as well as the native." I assume this means that non-Jews as well as Jews who blaspheme shall be stoned to death.

Truly, it seems many "religions of peace" share this concept, :-)

"..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." God separated His people from the others and commanded them to keep Israel holy by following His commandments. If the Jews allowed foreigners to abide in their land, they were to follow God's laws as well. So, people in Egypt could do whatever they wanted and didn't need to fear stoning by the Jews. People living in God's Holy land amongst the Jews were required to keep the law or leave.
