... yeah, I really don't actually care enough to go digging through the qur'an and muslim theology and whatnot to offer a position on the subject that
Ad hominem much? can't argue with facts so you try to attack the person?
Ill just remind anyone reading this response to go and read the quran, like, you know, i have.
what. wait what. no. burning pet...what.
Okay, okay, okay. First of all, Muhammad didn't preach anything like that. Here's what they thought about Christians and Jews.
Second of all...what. Can you quote me a passage from the Quran/Qu'ran/Koran that says that?
And third of all...that's not even close to what jihad means. Jihad is a struggle against evil. In defense.
A struggle against evil, in defense, hmm, is that why muhammad and his later successors proceeded to conquer the middle east, north africa, india and europe?
Lets start with just two small examples, because really, i don't have the time nor interest in proving something which is so obvious.
"O you who have believed, do not take the Jews and the Christians as allies. They are [in fact] allies of one another. And whoever is an ally to them among you - then indeed, he is [one] of them. Indeed, Allah guides not the wrongdoing people."
"If anyone desires a religion other than Islam (submission to Allah), never will it be accepted of him; and in the Hereafter He will be in the ranks of those who have lost (All spiritual good). "
"And when you call to prayer, they
(people of the scripture) take it in ridicule and amusement. That is because they are a people who do not use reason."
I really recommend people to go read the Quran, because a specific verse here and there is not enough. you need to read it entirely and witness it for what it actually is.
