Reply to Nero - yes, depends on perspective !!!Reader comment on item: Sudden Jihad Syndrome (in North Carolina) Submitted by faqi (United States), Mar 29, 2006 at 18:17 Nero, Hitler may have been born a Christian, but he gave it up long before he came to power, he believed more in the occult and the superiority of the Germanic people as a master race; so don't bring Hitler as a example of a Christian. Christianity is Universal, not only for a master race or a chosen people. Get your facts right please.OK. Mr. Nero. quote from the new testament any passage close to to the vile statements, such as killing of non-believers in the quran and hadiths. You better go back and read the Muslim holy book inclusive of the hadiths and the siras and educate yourself before you shoot your mouth off. Yes 1.2 billion believers of Islam ( is eating it up), literally believe that Mohamed was the last of the prophets and the words in the quran are the exact words of Allah (God) as whispered to Mohamed in the cave via the angel jibriel (Gabriel). Don't be a sorry apologist for Mohamed Taheri-Azar who ran over his fellow students at his campus. His motive is obvious; its his religion Islam not political, as you say. Read some of his statements: "I did not act out of hatred for America but out of love for Allah" " I only act out of love for Allah and I never hesitate to do as Allah has commanded in the Koran, which I have read all 114 chapters of approximately 15 times now, beginning in June 2003" ."I discussed my plans with no one but Allah when I prayed to him in the days prior to March 3rd" ".The Koran, the truth from Allah, the creator of all things, dictates in numerous places, e.g. Chapter "Muhammad, that Allah's followers have permission to attack these who have waged war against them, with eternal paradise as an expected reward so long as Allah's followers abide by all commandments listed throughout the Koran" "I live with the holy Koran as my constitution for right and wrong and definition of injustice" These dont look like political statements to anyone but you or the rantings of an insane person, but religious sentiments expressed by a true believer. What on earth has deviants such as David Koresh have to do with this episode, Koresh did not call for the killing of all the non-believers, nor did he kill anyone in the name of Christianity. Honour killings? What country are you referring to, that is 25% Muslim. Most of the honour killings are done in countries that are over 90% Muslim such as Egypt, Syria, Jordan, Palestine, Pakistan, Bangladesh and so forth. The only nation with a minority Muslim population is India, where Muslims practice honour killings. As far as Indonesia is concerned they just behead, burn and torture the non-believers or blow them up like what they did in Bali. What an irrelvant analogy, about a drunk in Alabama killing his wife. That is jealousy, it's murder. Its very different to a honour killings, where the family of the wife or the family of the husband that does the killing in Muslim societies, not out of jealousy. No serial killers in Muslim countries? What do you call the killers who behead and literaly blow up hundreds of innocent men, women & children every day -they are the serial killers in Muslim lands, maybe you call them terrorists. What about the sharia law of apostasy? You saw what took place in Afghanistan, hordes of Mullahs & Muslims bent on revenge and murder, marching and calling for beheading a man who left Islam for Christianity. No Christian is ever killed for leaving his religion.. As far as statistics go. In Western countries everything is cataloged and reported. So there are facts, figures and stats for everything happening. One does not have the same in primitive Islamic societies. Therefore, it has nothing to do with Christianity. Have you lived in a Muslim country? There are hordes of prostitutes, but its kept under wraps, including men (boy) prostitutes. In Bangladesh there is even a sex workers Union... On a recent survey conducted, they found that, the most amount of pornography downloads from the Internet were in Muslim majority countries and the largest sale of pornographic tapes & DVD's were in Muslim majority countries. Please get your facts right, before you point your fingers. As for the blood of the Indian tribes in the US, they are still here, aren't they? What happened to the Blood of all the martyrs of Christian Egypt, Christian Turkey, Christian Syria, Christian Lebanon, Hindu India, Buddhist /Hindu Pakistan & Afghanistan, Buddhist Malaysia, Hindu/Buddhist Indonesia, The Zoroastrians of Iran, The Jews of Arabia,the Berbers of north Africa, the list goes on and on., On whose hands are the blood of these innocents massacred by Muslims. Answer that, before you start pointing fingers. I will quote the same to you Nero: "Wipe your own ills before you vilify others for not wiping theirs". I sincerely hope that you listened to the debate: Where Dr. Wafa Sultan had to say to Dr.Al-Khouli on Al-jazeera. If you have not, then here is the link: www.memritv.org. "It is a clash between civilisation and backwardness, between the civilised and the primitive, between barbarity and rationality. It is a clash between human rights on the one hand and the violation of these rights on the other, between those who treat women like beasts and those who treat them like human beings."
