Comments on Nura's Christian Violence Hypothesis

Submitted by Stuart Parsons (United Kingdom), Feb 20, 2010 at 20:13

Western and Muslim historic sources are replete with both Christian and Muslim violence. It is difficult to say which is responsible for unnecessarily shedding the most blood in the name of their respective mythical gods. But at least one can say that Christianity has matured and tended to move with the times and its message now really is much more a love thy neighbour one, with little or no call for violence. On the other other hand Islam has been steeped in violence since the self-proclaimed Prophet Muhammad invented the religion on the back of the pre-existing and reinvented Allah...... and it sadly continues to express hatred and call for violence as the Qur'an and Sunnah commands them to. Muhammad was of the opinion that bay far the best deeds were to believ in Allah and His Apostle and partake in holy jihad on Allah's behalf. Many Muslims continue to believe in violent jihad and the defeat and submission of unbelivers and those foolish enough to follow other religions. The non-existent Allah has authorised his followers to make Islam the dominant religion in the world by any and all means, dissimulitude, lies, deceit, violence and outright war...... it is all there in the immutable Qur'an and Sunnah.

It is not really important in the 21st Century what Muslims and Christians did in the past. It is what they are doing today that concerns us all. The Christians, as far as I am aware, do not advocate violence against Muslims or the take over of the world and the subjucation of all who will not follow Jesus and His father. At the same time the followers of Muhammad and his hypothetical Allah, continue to ive in the 7th century and advocate the take over of the World and the complete subjucation of all who will not submit to the will of the mythical Allah and his deluded prophet.

Please Nura do not use your energy in calling down the wrath of Allah upon all non-Muslims. I say this without any feeling of ill will towards you. We would all appreciate it much more if you would provide us with irrefuteable and verifiable evidence for the existence of Allah and the claim that the Qur'an is His pristine, immutable and unchanged word ...... as opposed to its being the word of Muhammad, his scribes and some interpolators.

The vast majority of Christians and Muslims (and Hindus, Sikhs and Buddhists etc) have been raised from birth (brainwashed, conditioned and inculcated) to believe in gods for whom there if no VERIFIABLE evidence whatsoever. The Christians do not realise they are followers of the Cult of St Paul and likewise the Muslims are unaware they are adherents of the Cult of Muhammad. The followers of both religions are unable to provide any verifiable evidence to back up their beliefs.

We the unbelievers, await your supplying the evidence. No blaphemy fatwas please. Stuart Pasons
