The English word “peace” means tranquility or serenity, silence, freedom from war, freedom from anxiety, a state of harmony between people etc. All the people love to enjoy peace in their lives. Many a times Muslims call Islam as peace. Specially, after 9/11, Islamists echo continuously—“Islam means peace”. Therefore—Islam can not condone terrorism or war. Now, does anybody know what the Islamic concept of peace is? Do you know the Islamic peace do not signify the same meaning we learned from the English Dictionary? Here is the real meaning of Islamic concept of peace.

If people want on or off this list, please let me know.

What kind of sick twisted "religion" promises an eternal orgy in paradise with 72 young virgins in return for the slaughter of non-believers?

But those who deny (their Lord),- for them will be cut out a garment of Fire ... and (it will be said), “Taste ye the Penalty of Burning!” (What a sadist God?)

I disagree that God is to be blasphemed, as a sadist, because of mention of the fires of hell. We are being warned - I think it is a mercy that we are warned. Islamic preachers put a lot more emphasis on hellfire than Christians, in the present time. But it is a teaching common to both religions.

C.S. Lewis commented that we are often told of the illeffects of people being terrorised by the threat of hell, but on the illeffects of not believing it, we are less informed.
