well, seeing how the Quran has a lot of hate built into it, I cant see that it would be an update to the Old or New Testaments. Islam not only condones violence; it commands it.
"Fight and slay the Pagans wherever you find them, and seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them in every stategem (of war)." Surah 9:5
"The punishment of those who wage war against Allah and His Messenger, and strive with might and main for mischief through the land is: execution, or crucifixion, or the cutting off of hands and feet from opposite sides, or exile from the land: that is their disgrace in this world, and a heavy punishment is theirs in the Hereafter." Surah 5:33
The word Islam does not mean peace - it means submission. Their objective is for everyone to be in submission to them. Islam believes the prophet Muhammad taught absolute truth - that it is God's (Allah) will for them to rule the earth. Therefore, if Islam does not defeat Israel, Muhammad and the Quran were wrong - and that's absolutely unthinkable. Therefore, they must defeat Israel.
They may agree to sign a peach accord, but if they do, it will be one that is good for only a few years, and it will only be for the purpose of redeveloping their army for the destruction of Israel. If Israel survives, then Islamic theology is not true.
Judaism is based on the unique historical even of a divine revelation experienced by the entire nation, whereas Islam is based on the prophetic claims of a single individual who subsequently convinced others to follow his ways. The Quran also teaches that the god of Islam works with Satan and demons to lead people astray in order to populate the hell he created (Surah 6:39, 126; 32:13, 43:36-37).
For Jesus, God is a loving father; for Muhammad, Allah is a demanding master.
I see that all of you so quick to attack the way I think, and believe. I am giving you the respect of accepting you for what you believe. I ask for the same.
