Here are just a few frightning quotes from the Quaran, can you believe that any so called peace loving people could claim to take direction from such a book? we should never let such people live in our country! Oops I got the holy books mixed up; sorry what was I thinking?
Deuteronomy 7:1-2 When the Lord your God brings you into the land you are entering to possess and drives out before you many nations . . . then you must destroy them totally. Make no treaty with them, and show them no mercy.
Leviticus 20:9
If anyone curses his father or mother, he must be put to death.
Exodus 35:2
For six days, work is to be done, but the seventh day shall be your holy day, a Sabbath of rest to the LORD. Whoever does any work on it must be put to death.
Matthew 10:34
Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword.
Here are just a few frightning quotes from the Qua... (

Deuteronomy 7:1-2 is talking about a particular time and place. It is not a commandment to start now and continue to do the same thing to the whole world forever.
Nations had to come together to stop Hitler. It was not a bad thing to do. Sometimes you have to make a stand to stop evil.
Instead of focussing on the fact the the Jews had to go to war, you might look at who they were fighting and why it became necessary.
Leviticus 20:9 deals with the laws of Moses. Both the Muslims and the Jews trace their roots to Moses.
Look around you, is it the Jews or the Christians who are stoning people to death for theses kinds of violations???????????
No, it's the Muslims who are still practising biblical law.
Exodus 35:2 this is still Moses' laws, do you see any Jews or Christians k*****g anyone for working on the Sabbath, anywhere in the world.
Try being a Muslim and sneak out and not praying to Mecca five times a day and watch what happens.
Matthew 10:34 and on this one your just plain ignorant. If you read your bible at all you'd know that he is not talking literally about a sword.
He is trying to prepare his followers for persecution.
He knew that the world would reject his teachings:
Matthew 5:43-48 - Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and h**e thine enemy. (Read More...)
Matthew 5:44 - But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that h**e you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;
Love thine enemy????????????? whoever heard of such a thing?
Jesus knew that his message of love and peace would be violently rejected, that why he said, "Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword."
Now finish the quote:
"For I came to SET A MAN AGAINST HIS FATHER, AND A DAUGHTER AGAINST HER MOTHER, AND A DAUGHTER-IN-LAW AGAINST HER MOTHER-IN-LAW;
