This is in response to Leigh. Yes Leigh, christians have committed atrocities that are horrible in every way. However, All Christians will condemn this, past and present. But do you think that All Muslims condemn all the bad things they they have done, as guided by their beliefs? No, some of them are really nice normal peace loving people who have no intentions of supporting death and war in any way. However, in the same room, you'll find a muslim who agrees with war/forcing islam unto others. If you can find me a Christian, living or dead who boasts about the crusades/about missionary work that were doing in the New World (eg. CHRISTIANS would drag Native Americans, through the dirt, for hours, until they converted. Christ Died for our Sins, But he didn't eradicate it. We all sin, everyday. We've strive to not do so. It is how we are, we are not robots, or machines. If God did not Love us, he would have just Physically killed Adam (not spiritually, and cut him off from paradise), and just started all over!!! He can do that!!! He would never have let the forty days ended in the desert. He would not have suffered for us. He would not have warned Noah. Don't you see. people aren't posting the things they want on this forum for the sake of condemning islam. They have a passion for what they believe in. God said to spread the Gospel. He also said to be aware of false prohets. Some of us aren't gifted with eloquence, but standing up against this misguided religion?..it's not wrong. people will do it with different speaches of various lenghts.
I can do it with this truth:
My brother had Cancer. Our mother is Hindu. My father is Presbyterian. The kindergarten we went to was Pentecostal. The primary school we attended was muslim funded. The secondary school he went to was Baptist Secondary School. We only went to church for special occasions. When our mom asked us if we want to get christened as Hindus, we said no. Our mother never forced anything on us. My brother never read the Bible. He probably only knew a few verses, the most common ones. But in the weeks before he died, he asked to be baptised. He was never forced. He wasn't told. But when he was going through his treatment, and he was in pain...he called out to God, just God. When your emoations are running high, and ur heart aches, the devil doesn't want you. It's God who comes to dry ur tears. The devil will turn his back. God will hold you in his arms. God answered my brothers prayers. See my brother is with Jesus now. he has no pain. His limbs are straight, he walks side by side with Jesus. He doesn't need to have my dad carry him up a flight of stair he spent 15 years of his life running up and down. He was 17.
See Leigh, people are trying to spread messages about the love of Christ and the false teaching of Mohammad, not out of hate OR IGNORANCE, but because when you truly open urself up to God, and God alone. You find the right path, and u help the peron still at the crossroads.
