True Islam is radical Islam. The fact that Muhammad said it is okay to kill Christians and Jews makes the religion a violent religion.

Islam is not a peaceful religion and if a Muslim says it is, either that person has not read the Quran or that person is lying. In fact, Under the principle of Sharia law, Taqiyya, Muslims are encouraged to lie in order to spread the Islam. They are telling you that Islam is a peaceful religion and "most Muslims" are peaceful. Have you met most Muslims? Do you know that in Muslim countries, they will kill their own family members if they convert to Christianity? The Muslims who convert to Christianity in those countries have to keep it a secret. Oh yeah, sure, that's a peaceful religion.

Islam Seek Cultural Control

Islam is not just a faith, it's a culture.

Christianity and Judaism are strictly religious creeds that make no claim to any particular governmental or economic system. For example, the Bible patriarchies monarchies, dictatorships and theocracies, the flexibility to permit both religions to exist in harmony with the modern state.

The first and greatest commandment of both faiths is to, "love your God with all of your heart and soul and with all your mind." The second is, "Love your neighbor as yourself."

Islam's four most tenant is submission of ones will to God. Submission, not love, is required. Furthermore, the Koran and the Sunnah clearly prescribe not just a religious idea but a social compact including a theocracy, shiria law, modes of dress, permitted foods and every other aspect of life.

More nefarious is Islam's promotion of jihad, which includes, not just internal struggle for perfection, but external struggle against infidels, who are defined as any non-Muslim. Islam has been at war with Christendom for Muhammad's time to present.

But for Christian victories at Leptano in 1571 and at Vienna in 1638, Europe would likely now be an Islamic state. The few remaining Christians, like those currently in the Middle East, would be dhimmi, that is, second-class citizens, bereft of many rights and forced to pay a tax for clinging to their faith.

Islam is not just an alternative religion. It's a monolithic social, religious, government and economic structure to which devout Muslims will always aspire.

@lingerie Jesus demands hate. He doesn't want you unless you hate everyone.

Luke 14:26 (CEB) = “Whoever comes to me and doesn’t hate father and mother, spouse and children, and brothers and sisters—yes, even one’s own life—cannot be my disciple."
