Are Evangelists [sic] Attacks on Islam Provoking more Terrorism?
After reading this article Other Source on Evangelists [sic] who are spitting hatred towards Islam it made me aware of the importance of them realizing the potential consequences of their words. Our soldiers are dying for our peace while some Evangelists [sic] are lighting new fires with their anti-Islam sentiment, elsewhere. Our soldiers may have to risk their lives putting out these new fires. I am for a strong military but it has to go along side with easing the hatred as a medium to long term goal to prevent a clash of civilizations as Bin Laden is aspiring for.
If you review what motivates the al Qaida network besides a fanatical interpretation of their religion, it is hatred of America and belief that we are coming after them. Hatred, like that shown towards Islam by our CHRISTIAN Evangelist's [sic] is inspiring more people to fly air planes into our buildings. It may be recruiting more terrorists that feel a need to fight for their religion which in turn is getting more of our children killed. This is not just words or about restraining freedom of speech, but a national security issue and just plain common sense.
Maybe the common theme throughout history of people uniting and having something to hate just feels too good to care about the destruction their words cause? Maybe this is how some Evangelists [sic] gather their congregations? Beware of following one who shouts hatred. You can ease hate by reminding people of kindness and compassion. People can tend to get in a "mob" mentality and find social acceptance readily, by sharing hate. It takes strength of character to find social acceptance through the sharing of kind thoughts.
We need to be educated on being "street smart" [sic] in a world where we are no longer protected by our borders. Since most American's [sic] don't travel much, or when they do it is typically in an "environmental bubble", they "do no [sic] know they do not know" the rules of the street internationally. We better wise up quickly though, because much has changed with these new tools of globalization, as 9/11 has proved.
The Islamic religion is a tolerant religion and it is only a minority of extremes that paint a bad perception. Unless we want millions of Islamic people and millions of Christians [sic] to die, tolerance is the only viable solution. Have a no tolerance policy on terrorism, and aspire for better international relations. We do not need anymore enemies.

I think that it is Hillary's White House memoirs that are causing the terrorist bombings in the Middle East.

The Islamic religion is a tolerant religion and it is only a minority of extremes that paint a bad perception.Ignorance must be idyllic bliss for the author of this piece.
Koran Surah [2.191] And kill them wherever you find them, and drive them out from whence they drove you out, and persecution is severer than slaughter, and do not fight with them at the Sacred Mosque until they fight with you in it, but if they do fight you, then slay them; such is the recompense of the unbelievers.
[4.89] They desire that you should disbelieve as they have disbelieved, so that you might be (all) alike; therefore take not from among them friends until they live in Allah's way; but if they turn back, then seize them and kill them wherever you find them, and take not from among them a friend or a helper.
[5.51] "O you who believe! do not take the Jews and the Christians for friends; they are friends of each other; and whoever amongst you takes them for a friend, then surely he is one of them; surely Allah does not guide the unjust people.
[9.30] And the Jews say: Uzair is the son of Allah; and the Christians say: The Messiah is the son of Allah; these are the words of their mouths; they imitate the saying of those who disbelieved before; may Allah destroy them; how they are turned away!

If they only knew, we don't give a sh*t about them, but on to my diatribe........Think about it, the Arabic people did great in civilizing their world, look at Egypt even Afganistan. Until Islam was embrassed. Then all civilization stopped, they still live in the 14th century and want the rest of us to live there too. Sorry osama, saddam, we ain't going back, you need to join 2003 and forget your archaic debasing religion. It hasn't gotten you anywhere but H*LL. If you can't join us, see ya.

I would say that those Christian Evangelists who express hatred toward Islam and Muslims are in fact stirring up contention and hostility.
And it's sad for those who get caught in the cross-fire.
However, according to some Muslims, simply expressing your Christian beliefs is enough instigation to make you a target of their hostilities and violence..just as being a Jew does.
So not all Christian evangelists who speak out on Islam are guilty of causing conflict...but some are.

"The Islamic religion is a tolerant religion and it is only a minority of extremes that paint a bad perception." Major barf alert. Only someone who has never read the Koran could buy it to that lie. Or some one to lazy to check and too dumb to comprhend what the words of the false prophet as he parroted his demonic mentors.
Go to a local book store and steal a copy, it's only use is as toilet paper and there is no need to waste your money or to encourage the printers by helping them turn a profit on this trash.
From cover to cover all you will find is a strident hatred and advocacy of murder, rape, abuse of women and teachings to lie as long as it is to ones benefit.
What kind of spiritual values are there in teaching eternal rape of the eternal virgins and boys in silk shirts?
the truth is that islam is an abomination and embodiment of evil incarnate.

tell these people of all the verses in the Koran that callon all ifidels to be kiled, then show them the Bible where Jesus says for us to believe and be saved. it will show where the murderers lie.
To: Hillary's Lovely Legs
I wouldn't worry about it. It's about as ignorant a piece of trash as I could imagine.

I am not worried about it. I think it's possibly the most moronic and arrogant piece I have ever read. Nothing worse than an arrogant moron!

And slay them wherever ye find them, and drive them out of the places whence they drove you out, for persecution is worse than slaughter. And fight not with then at the Inviolable Place of Worship until they first attack you there, but if they attack you there then slay them. Such is the reward of disbelievers. (Quran 2:191)
