Chose them from the New Testament, if you will please

Do you disavow the Old Testament? Or do you only accept the book of Daniel because it fits with fundementalist fantasies about the tribulation. Christ was a Jew and preached from the Torah. Christ was the fulfillment of the Old Testament.

Christ didn't tell people to massacre people. Mohammed did. The New Testament overrides the Old. It's a new covenant.

Its amazing how weak the faith of many on FR must be that they "cringe" at the idea that there is a competing faith out there.

That's because most people's faith resides in their heads, where it can be attacked and possibly won over with persuasive arguments, instead of in their hearts where it can never be conquered and for which one is ready to die for.

Of course I accept the Old Testament. But comparing the words of Christ (found in the New Testament) with the words of Mohammed (found in the Koran) show a stark contrast between the teachings of the two. Christ died for all; Mohammed, seemingly, wants all infidels to die.
