It's started...... NYPD attacked by jihadist...

Here's an interesting comparison between Christianity and Islam. Islam in general believes that all people who don't follow Islam should die an earthly death. Christianity in general believes that all people who don't follow Christianity WILL die an eternal death. What's worse?

I also will say that it is very easy to cherry pick out verses from Holy texts to prove a point you want to make. For every verse in the Koran that appears to promote violence towards others, there's a Bible verse that equally encourages violence. Islam is the faith to hate of the day...soon it will be Judiasm...then it will be Hinduism...the Christianity again...then Islam again...

My question to all of you is this: is Islam DIRECTLY affecting your daily life negatively today? The answer is very clearly no. Leave people the fuck alone, let people believe whatever kind of horseshit they want to believe and live your life and be happy.

To your first part- Christianity does not state that- you're taking a biblical quote out of context. "He who denies me in front of men will be denied before the Angels of God," Luke 12:9. That was speaking to those who do not believe in Christ, and they will not receive eternal death, but be denied entrance to Heaven, in the Christian sense.

Point 2- the bible does not, anywhere, encourage violence, in the New Testament. The OT does state that God was so angry with the sins of man that he wiped the wicked out (Soddom and Gommorah, The Great Flood, etc.), but no where does the bible state to find the non-Christian and smite their heads from their body. Again, you take things out of context.

Third- Islam does directly affect me. I have to take off my shoes and consent to invasive searches just to board an airplane. Hassidic Jews did not cause this, Roman Catholics did not cause this, Islamic Jihadists caused this. I lost the chance (nevermind that I chose against, but the option was taken from me) to pursue a career in the US Army because of injury sustained in Afghanistan, fighting Islamic Jihadists. They caused this. They directly affected my life and I have scars to prove it. I no longer have 33 vertebrae in my spine, I'm now at 32. This was caused by my having to take the fight to the Islamic Jihadists in a far off land who attacked us. It was not Jews, it was not Christians, and it was not Hindi. I was perfectly happy, up until 9/11/01 to leave people the fuck alone, but they could not leave my country alone, thus I stand with the many on here who see the truth.

Nope, my brother is in the military but its strange because he isn't calling me saying "man, I wish this Islam thing would stop making my life a living hell", nope & nope not living in the middle east...however our roommate is Muslim. **GASP**...yes we actually let one of "those people" live in our house and around our children even. Strange, she doesn't want to blow up our family...nor does she want any other Muslim to blow up our family. She's actually quite fond of our family, because she has become a part of it. Yes...a Christian household not only allows, but encourages a Muslim to live with us and to do life together.

You know what she has to deal with on a daily basis? People like some of you on here, treating her poorly because of her religion. That makes me more angry than I am able to express in words, and every last one of you who does exactly that should be absolutely ashamed of yourselves. Funny thing is, there's plenty of shitty people out there. Hell, there's probably as many shitty Christians as there are Muslims. There's even plenty of shitty gun owners. And boy that torques some folks on here right off when people generalize you because you are associated with a belief system/activity/group etc. You want to talk about stupid, selfish and immature? Pot, meet kettle.

I am out...I've thoroughly derailed this thread even further than it already was.

In the words of Bridgette Gabriel- Your roommate is IRRELEVANT.
