Non-muslims passing themselves as muslimsReader comment on item: [Khobar Rampage:] "Don't Be Afraid, We Won't Kill Muslims" Submitted by Jerry Bell (United States), Jun 8, 2004 at 09:56 Dear Mr. Pipes,While this may seem like a simple thing to you it is not to a true Christian. Jesus said: " if you deny me before men, I will deny you before my Father." This statement is about integrity and it is about what a person believes beyond life itself. Yes, it is a hard thing, a very hard thing. But the things Jesus had to say were all very hard things. They were about the soul of man and where it will spend eternity. Christianty is about love, kindness, charity, and a whole lot of other things, all of which come from, and out of, love of God and love of others and not fear. It is a way of life that respects other people regardless of what they believe. All of which appear to be missing from the muslim religion. If it is a way of life - it one that loves death and hates life. And I can assure every one that hate will not enter into eternal life. Thank you.
