Bible vs. Koran: Which is Better for America?
CBN News ^ | 11/6/15

Posted on 11/09/2015 9:34:18 AM PST by marshmallow

A majority of Americans believe the country would be better off if people followed the teachings of the Bible over the Koran, the Muslim holy book.

Lifeway Research interviewed 1,000 Americans to learn their opinions about the Bible and Koran.

The results are a bit shocking.

Questioners asked interviewees if they considered the text of each book to be dangerous, and if it would be helpful, or harmful for American society to follow the teachings of each.

Twenty-four percent of Americans considered the Koran to be a dangerous book, and only 9 percent felt that way about the Bible. Eighty percent said the Bible is good for American society.

But the most shocking response came when 28 percent of respondents said they think following the Koran would be good for the country, and 25 percent said they didn't know if the Koran is dangerous, or good.

How could this be, when only slightly more than one half of one percent of the total U.S. population is Muslim?

According to the 2010 U.S. Religion Census, 2.6-million Americans are Muslim. That figure has grown by 1.6 million since 2000.

It's In The Koran

Quran (2:216) – “Fighting is prescribed for you, and ye dislike it. But it is possible that ye dislike a thing which is good for you, and that ye love a thing which is bad for you. But Allah knoweth, and ye know not.”

Quran (9:30) – “And the Jews say: Ezra 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!”

Quran (9:38-39) – “O ye who believe! what is the matter with you, that, when ye are asked to go forth in the cause of Allah, ye cling heavily to the earth? Do ye prefer the life of this world to the Hereafter? But little is the comfort of this life, as compared with the Hereafter. Unless ye go forth, He will punish you with a grievous penalty, and put others in your place.”

Quran (9:88) – “But the Messenger, and those who believe with him, strive and fight with their wealth and their persons: for them are (all) good things: and it is they who will prosper.

Quran (9:41) – “Go forth, light-armed and heavy-armed, and strive with your wealth and your lives in the way of Allah! That is best for you if ye but knew.”
(9:42) – “If there had been immediate gain (in sight), and the journey easy, they would (all) without doubt have followed thee, but the distance was long, (and weighed) on them"

Quran (9:111) – “Allah hath purchased of the believers their persons and their goods; for theirs (in return) is the garden (of Paradise): they fight in His cause, and slay and are slain: a promise binding on Him in truth, through the Law, the Gospel, and the Quran: and who is more faithful to his covenant than Allah? then rejoice in the bargain which ye have concluded: that is the achievement supreme.”

Quran (9:123) – “O you who believe! fight those of the unbelievers who are near to you and let them find in you hardness.”

Quran (33:60-62) – “If the hypocrites, and those in whose hearts is a disease, and the alarmists in the city do not cease, We verily shall urge thee on against them, then they will be your neighbors in it but a little while. Accursed, they will be seized wherever found and slain with a (fierce) slaughter.”

Quran (61:4) – “Surely Allah loves those who fight in His way”
(61:9): “He it is who has sent His Messenger (Mohammed) with guidance and the religion of truth (Islam) to make it victorious over all religions even though the infidels may resist.”

Sounds to me like a BS poll.

I would bet 90% of Americans are clueless about what the Koran says. -Tom

I wouldn't be surprised. Over half thought Obama would be good for the country too.

What's really shocking is that something like 41% of Americans would vote for Hillary, even if she were in jail!!!

Korans can have a high btu content if shredded and mulched into a puree of pork rinds andjuice, extruded into presto logs and burnt in the fireplace, nice bacon smell as well.

The Bible without a doubt.

On the other hand we all need bathroom paper and the Koran fits that just right. That is all it is worth, or you can just drain your fried Bacon on it!!!

What percentage of those who thought Q was OK know anything about the murder, rape, stealing, and enslavement of women blacks and non-Arabs that it advocates? Survey didn't ask, eh?

What a ridiculous question!

The only thing that matters is, which religion is true?
