Answer to commenter "religion and violence"

Submitted by Tanya (Singapore), Feb 17, 2005 at 22:09

Excuse me, but what you are missing here is the very fact that religion and violence do not go together. You are as ignorant as those "faithfuls" who proudly declare jihad, or rather qital, in the name of Allah. Maybe this is said too many times but you obviously do not understand reading in the context of the warring verses written in the Qur'an, as with all other ignoramuses who like to quote the chopping off hands and burning in Hell of the Qur'an who likes to say no one can challenge the Qur'an while ignoring other verses of peace and read them with careful thought.

I'm not Muslim but I do not proudly proclaim nor believe Islam is a religion of hate.
