The Qur'an tells Muslims to kill, the Bible tells Christians to love your enimes, and pray for those that persecute you, do you not see the differenace?

The bible also tells Christians to kill. Before you tell others what the bible says, you should read it for yourself. That is, read ALL of it, not just the HappyJack bits your minister points you to.
The Qu'ran doesn't tell Muslims to kill. It is a religion of peace, just like New Testament Christianity once was. Its message has been warped and twisted since the days of Mohammed by people intent on controlling others for their own purposes. Sound familiar?
Try reading a competent translation of it before jumping to conclusions. Why must you people rely on what others tell you in order to formulate an opinion. No wonder Muslims (and any other sane person for that matter) really don't like you.
More like "Obedience" or "Submission", maybe. I'm not sure.
A religion of peace? As far as I know, it started as a war, and was at least as expansionist as Christianity.
Psalm 137:8,9 Contemporary English Version
Babylon, you are doomed! I pray the Lord's blessings on anyone who punishes you for what you did to us.
May the Lord bless everyone who beats your children against the rocks!
Please, let's not go down the road of defending Islam as particularly peaceful. Like the Bible it has some good, peaceful parts, but the Qur'an also contains a Bible-load of rape, murder and other violence.
F. It's obvious you haven't read the assignment.
(Long side note: Are the purpose of the "Google Ads" to help us commenters find new material to submit? I've got one link to "wonderful world of tomorrow," which claims that the Bible talks about the US and Great Britain in "prophecies," and "wbschool" which claims the Bible will cure all your problems. There's also this Christian apologist nonsense called "The Da Vinci Code Fraud" to try and "help Christians and seekers wrestle with key issues raised by The Da Vinci Code book and movie, gently leading them toward conclusions that are consistent with historic Christianity." It offers "free shipping to churches," so we could get one for free by saying we're the "Church of FSTDT." That's 3/4! There's only one non-fundie thing, the "free ringtones" ad.)
Actually, it only mentions it on four occasions, three of which specifically relate to defending yourself when they attack you!
Wanna take a stab at how many times the bible says it?
Sorry about getting in the way of your opinions with facts!
"The Qu'ran doesn't tell Muslims to kill. It is a religion of peace, just like New Testament Christianity once was. Its message has been warped and twisted since the days of Mohammed by people intent on controlling others for their own purposes. Sound familiar?"
Bullshit. Absolute steaming horsehit. The Qur'an orders people to kill all unbelievers, whereas the Bible merely orders Tribe X to kill Tribe Y. This religion of peace stuff is a truckload of Kool aid monkey semen.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
