So you think the things seen in his vision were literal? It was a prophetic vision. It represented among other things what would happen by the hands of Babylon if nation of Israel didn't repent. God would not act in their behalf to spare them from destruction.

Let's get to the heart of the matter. You know that Jesus' teachings are good, or at least totally unlike those of the Koran, and yet you look for things to use to equivocate Christianity and Islam. So you find passages of violence in the Old Testament and without understanding the context, use these to justify your views.
You do know that Christians are not under the Law, right? Even if the Law of Moses did call for continual violence upon others, which it does not, that Christians are to follow Christ's instructions as written in the New Testament?

Goalpost moving, just as predicted. I give you the verses you demand, and now you want to limit me to the N.T. because that whole first book doesn’t count. Except for the parts you like, of course, like only certain verses in Leviticus and such.

Only Christians are allowed to generalize others’ religions by finding verses in their holy books that show how awful they are. Any non-Christians doing the same thing to the Bible are wrong, because reasons, apparently.

Do you know what it is called when you do the exact same thing you tell other not to do?
