ealgeone: They don’t believe in the Divinity of Christ nor the Holy Spirit. But, neither do the Jews. Islam started in large part as a result of a Christian Heresy. Apparently, Mohommad’s first wife was from a Christian family or maybe pagan but had an Uncle who was a Nestorian Christian, thus much of what Mohammed heard about Christ was from a Nestorian view. which was a seriously flawed Christology. Of course, he also took much from Judaism. Now I think Islam and some of its followers are a big problem, and I think the West needs to grow a spine and start calling the terrorist elements of Islam what they are radical Islam but at the same time, it would not be proper to go after everyone whose religion is Islam for if God created everything visible and invisible [per Nicene Creed], he also created those who are Muslim, Hindu, Buddist, etc, as well.

If you read the Koran you will find this is the next to the last surah in the Koran. Surah 9:5 is called the sword verse. This was one of the final revelations to Mohammed.

Proclaim a woeful punishment to the unbelievers,

9:4 except to those idolaters who have honoured their treaties with you in every detail and aided none against you. With these keep faith, until their treaties have run their term. God loves the righteous.

9:5 When the sacred months are over slay the idolaters wherever you find them. Arrest them, besiege them, and lie in ambush everywhere for them. If they repent and take to prayer and render the alms levy, allow them to go their way. God is forgiving and merciful.

Based on this verse there isn't a such a thing as a terrorist cell in Islam. This is the true Islam. It is how Islam has advanced and is advancing today. You either convert or you die.

I do agree that the West needs to grow a spine and deal with Islam....sooner rather than later.

ealgeone:

This is the most extreme yes, and sharia law is based on it, so Christians who pay the alms [jizza tax I think it is called] are left alone, but under muslim rule.

And for the record, I am no fan of Islam, but its followers are still human beings, even those who don’t act like it.
