Nozzi, you wrote,
>>Now I know why Hindu Indians are quite particular about Muhammad since Hindu Scripture contains Muhammad.<<
Since Hindu scriptures mention Muhammad they also must be the true word of Allah.
>>However, you have to bear in mind that if all religions at that time would respect each other, there would not be any war among muslims and non-muslims.<<
The Pagans, Jews and Christians of the time lived without any violent theological disputes. Along comes Muhammad and starts cursing every religion of the time for worshipping idols, or for having corrupted god's words. In his lifetime he started wars against the pagans, Jews and Christians. So, Nozzi, bear in mind that Islam came and set off a bloody chain of wars that has lasted to this day.
>> No matter the situation might be in the past. The past is the past. If all religions do not respect with each other since now, there would be conflicts among non-muslims and muslims and that this would last forever.<<
Have you forgotten calling us all non-Muslims unclean and unworthy of intimate contact with you pure Muslims?? Stop calling us unclean, impure and calling for jihad against us and we can forget Islam's bloody past.
>> Why you'll Hindu Scripture are quite particular in the past? Don't we look forward in the future to have peaceful world by now from practising harmony among religions. <<
Most religions, especially Hinduism with its obnoxious caste system, have changed for the better. They have evolved. But Islam with its insistence that the Koran is the literal word of go is simply incapable of making any improvements to its call to kill unbelievers to achieve paradise (9:5, 9:29, 9:111).
How can we look forward to a peaceful future as long "moderate" Muslims believe that non-Muslims are unclean and there are calls to kill non-Muslims in the Koran?
