When Muslim fanatics kill Americans (after, say, the Fort Hood slaughter) a reflexive response from the Obama administration is to fret over anti-Islamic backlash.

Obama and Co. automatically proclaim that such orchestrated terrorist attacks are “isolated” events. But when it comes to mainstream Americans, veterans, ObamaCare opponents or (shudder) tea partiers, there’s no generalization too broad or too insulting for the left.

This x1000.

That's the second time today you've made this implication that the left is guilty of something that the right isn't. I'm certainly not fabricating the people walking around with signs saying "Islam Kills."


But Islam does kill, the Koran instructs muslims to kill:

"Slay the idolaters wherever you find them, and take them captives and besiege them and lie in wait for them in every ambush." (Sura  9:5)

Sura 2:187-189 “And kill them wherever ye shall find them, and eject them from whatever place they have ejected you; for civil discord is worse than carnage: yet attack them not at the sacred Mosque, unless they attack you therein; but if they attack you, slay them. Such the reward of the infidels."

But they shouldn't kill one of their own who has killed a "kafir":

“No Muslim should be killed for killing a Kafir (infidel).”(Hadith vol. 9:50)


However if a muslim stops being a muslim then they're fair game:

“Whoever changed his Islamic religion, then kill him.”  (Hadith 9:45; 84.2.57.)


And the Bible instructs Christians to stone disobedient children. Moderates of both religions know what rules not to follow.


Actually after Jesus the mosaic law was not used any more which is what you are refering to. Now it is all about following the 10 commandments.  So the kill children is taken out of context and not applicible in our day for christians.

Reread your 'new testament', there are not so nice things said in there about nonChristians. Why do you think the Crusades, Inquisition, as well as numerous other Roman Catholic attacks on other Crhistian faiths as well as nonChristians were allowed in the name of Jesus? (btw, I'm not refering to killing of children)

N.T. says not nice things about non-Christians?  I better reread my bible cause I didn't get that.

Crusades were not all religious war.  I believe they used religion to get more recruits but it wasn't just about religion.

Inquisition on the other hand was cruel.  But I don't know what part of the n.t. they used.  I can't find any.  Inquisition was just about men with power who wanted more power.  Probably the darkest part of Christian history.  I'm thankful that we've done with all that.

As this thread is not the place and I am not at my home computer, I will try to remember to come back to you in a personal message with appropriate links. Sorry, I normally hate to leave out sources, but this I cannot avoid right now.
