Islam is not bad, too many of you are ignorant of history.

[Joelcool7]

Honestly SuperChunk your not winning your debate. Even if you can argue that the Qur'an is 100% peaceful you still say that theHadiths are not. You also say that the Hadiths dictate Islamic policies in all major Muslim countries as well as influence western Islam. Fact is these Hadiths are horrible texts in many cases and in modern Islam are accepted as Holy and even in some cases being added to the Qur'an.

Now what I would love to see, because I believe you are very passionate about your faith and the Qur'an as apparently peaceful. I would like to see you go on some Al-Qaida forum or other extremist forum and spread the light. I hate to use the term missionary as you'd be talking to fellow Muslim's but you claim to be so enlightened.

Infact even here you don't seem to have the support of the muslims of this board. I have not seen to many here backing you up and I do know your not the only one on VGChartz.

I noticed something big, at the beginning of my question as to how Muslims could believe the Bible is a Holy text but not follow its teachings. You said it was a Holy text and that the teachings of Jesus applied, however you said Jesus did not rise again after three days nor was he the son of God and their is no such thing as the trinity. Then I posted a few verses which you managed to explain using different interpretations. However when I qouted more verses you claimed that the Bible had been tainted by men.

Now if the Bible indeed has been tainted by men, how could it still be a Holy book? And if the Bible was tainted how about the Qur'an? You claim the Roman's influenced the translations of the Bible and made up the Trinity etc...etc... However I know that the origional Manuscripts still exist and know people who recently examined and helped translate them. Are you saying the romans took the origional manuscripts and altered them?

I'm not about to debate Christianity verses Islam and say your evil for believing different then me. Just pointing out your thinking is flawed. I personally know that the origional manuscripts still exist today. Does the origional Qur'an exist today? Is it still being studied and re-translated from time to time to ensure it remains accurate? From a quick google search it doesn't appear the origional manuscripts in which the Quran were based on exist today. Am I wrong? I could be as I just googled it quickly.

Anyways you didn't call us ignorant if we believe Islam is violent. But the Hadiths which you claim are core to modern Islam is very much so. So its not us being ignorant, even if the Qur'an itself is peaceful (Which is very debatable) the Hadiths certainly are not. Many of them I would consider evil, same with the Sharia as seen in Afghanistan and most of the other muslim countries. Things like women must be covered at all times, a Muslim cannot convert to Christianity or any other faith or he needs to be executed.

Islam in its modern day context is very violent and I would say border line evil. The small minority like yourself do not represent Islam as a whole and neither does the Qur'an. I notice your quick to say the Christian's were the same way. You mention the Crusades, but guess what your right Christianity was violent but it had nothing to do with the Bible. In the same way Islam is very violent and evil in its current form. Regardless of whether the Qur'an promotes that view or not.

I myself would be stoned to death or imprisoned for proselytizing if I went to almost any Muslim majority country. Any Muslim who converted would face similiar persecution. At the hands of who? Muslims!
