    There are great contradictions between the Bible and the Quran.
    The stories of the Quran are distorted stories of the Bible.

Islam and Terrorism

I was quite honored when the Christian Coalition of America invited me to be part of this symposium on Islam.  My subject is “Islam and Terrorism.”

To begin with, I have to define the word “terrorism”.  According to Reader’s Digest Illustrated Encyclopedic Dictionary, the word terrorism means: “the use of terror, violence and intimidation to achieve a political end.  To coerce or maintain control by intimidation or fear.”   (p. 1707-1708)

By this definition, we might ask: “Are Islam and terrorism related to each other?”  To answer this question correctly, we have to understand the Two Phases of Islam.

This article is very hurtful and disrespectful to some people. Not all Muslims are terrorists. You can not pin the hate done by specific people in the world to the people who are part of the whole religion. I know you might not believe that Islam is a religion of love and kindness, but can we please just stop arguing? From your perspective things might look different, but religion is not something we should fight about. We should try and share it through understanding and love rather than fighting and arguing about things. If we don't believe in something another says, that does not mean that they can not okay? I mean that is the beauty of religion right? Also, I believe what I believe and you
believe what you believe and no one changes that, so again we should not argue or fight about things like this, because that will not break your belief of break mine.

From what i have read above,my conclusion is Islam preaches Terrorism, that is do physical harm and possibly kill those who do not embrace Islam. This is a kind of Dictatorship and that's not good. Every human being is born free, and is free to follow any religion he likes, not just Islam. You cannot force Islam on anyone. That's truly insane.

A serious mistake in this artlicle...
// When the prophet Muhammad began to call people in Mecca to Islam, he was weak.  He needed the help of the Jews and the Christians, so he praised them.  Here is what the Koran, the holy book of Islam says about Jews and Christians at that time:Verily, those who believe [Muslims] and those who are Jews and Christians and Sabians whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day and does righteous good deeds shall have their reward with their Lord.  On them shall be no fear nor shall they grieve.            (Surat Al-Baqarah 2:62)//
This makes it sound like islam is v self serving, which praises people when it needs them. And its not true. So pl do the necessory corrections...

Bukhari Vol 9, Book 87, Number 111 clearly shows that Islam started in the cave of Hira with the forces of evil.
The only solution is to expose Islam for what it really is which you have done except for one statement at the end... "the verses of the Koran calling for Jihad and killing of Jews and Christians were for Muhammad’s time." This is not true!!! these commands are eternal for ALL Muslims. This truth must be exposed so that every Muslim would turn apostate and Islam (Muhammadism) would end. John 14:6
