"Quoting our holy scripture is hate speech."
To: chance33_98
''First and foremost, are we not entitled to freedom of speech?'' Youngblood said.Yes, he is entitled to free speech, but there is also the issue of slander. The bible has more than one reference to genocide, in which a race was obliterated with God's blessing. If selected verses were taken out of context in the bible (murder, incest, genocide) and contrasted against 'good' verses in any other religon, Christianity would look bad.

Yes, and quoting their supposed "holy scripture" is hate speach as well!
Jesus said "by their FRUITS you shall know them." These Muslems just do not want the TRUTH to get out about what their "scriptures" teach.
My prayers go out to the pastor and the church, may they continue to shine as couragious lights in the darkness, in the name of Jesus Christ, who is God the Son, amen.

The sign refers to Jesus' sayings.
Where, in the Bible, did Jesus support genocide?

Where in the New Testament (the BASIS for Christianity) does it condone genocide?
The Korans reference to murder and mayhem were for then and evermore. The OT admonitions to kill the Amelekites were for then and only them.
Your moral equivalance is absurd and anti-intellectual.

This is one that I thought up that would go along with that one:
"Jesus died for our sins. Muhammad would have you die for yours's"Freegards,
Geist Krieger (Ephesians 6:12)
To: Guillermo
My point is that if you take a single verse from the bible, and a single verse from any other religous book; without reference to context; you can BIAS at will.
I am not making any moral equivalance between Christiantiy and Islamic religons. Please read the posts before flaming.

Quoting the Koran is "hate speech?"
To: Guillermo
Where in the New Testament (the BASIS for Christianity) does it condone genocide? I thought the 10 Commandments was the foundation that Christitantity was built on. That is in the OT, unless I am sorely mistaken.
The OT admonitions to kill the Amelekites were for then and only them.
And the limitation and conditions for this are all contained in a single verse? Or may a Muslum plaster a single incriminating verse on a billboard as this pastor did?

Jacksonville --- The Council on American-Islamic Relations-Florida is calling on state religious leaders to repudiate a Jacksonville Baptist church's roadside sign the group claims is anti-Muslim. The sign outside the First Conservative Baptist Church in Jacksonville's Mandarin area reads: ''Jesus Forbade Murder. Matthew 26:52. Muhammad Approved Murder. Surah 8:65.''
Truth hurts ... don't it ?

No, the Ten Commandments are not the basis of Christianity. By suggesting this, you prove you know nothing about it.
I don't care what Bible verse a Mohammedan cleric chooses to plaster on a sign.
Again, you moral equivalancy fails to hold water.

Most of us avoid murdering each other in our daily lives.
But what are our lives like, day-to-day?
Maybe, instead, the pastor should have mentioned that Muslims are told to follow the rule of "an eye for an eye," but Christ tells Christians to "turn the other cheek."
I think this comparison better illustrates the difference between Islam and Christianity as they apply to most of our daily lives.
Jesus encouraged forgiveness. Muhammed approved of retribution.
I'd hate to have to spend my day somehere that this rule is followed...
The Qura'n says: "If anyone transgresses against you requite him with an exactly like action and restrain yourself for Allah; and know that Allah is with those who so restrain themselves" (Surah 2:194).
I often transgress against others. I'd hate to have to worry about "payback," all the time.

There is a bloody thread woven throughout the entire Koran.
It isn't just "one verse" which condemns it.
