Thank you. I have read articles from that Anti-Muslim site before but not this one...

"I disagree...some religions are written or designed in such a way as to permit some people within said religion to hurt innocent people if they were to believe and follow literally the written words of a religion....islam is one of those religions.

I think this is from some sort of religious site but I think the passages from the koran are accurate."


At the core of all religions the use of force to make others serve God or to belief in God, is strictly forbidden. It's also a fact that all religions have been violated by extremists attempting to use force in this way, even though it is a practical impossibility to accomplish such a thing. It is also true that all religions, and especially religious messengers have been the targets of coercion by enemies of faith, we usually refer to that as persecution often intent on annihilation. If you've entertained such thoughts you know where you stand.

The only war permitted in Islam is defensive war and only on the condition that the enemies initiate hostilities and raise sword against a weak, defenceless people for having committed the only crime of declaring that God is their Lord. All offensive wars according to Islam are unholy.

Your quotes from the Quran were entirely couched in out of context implications. That is a practice Radical Extremists in Islam are well known for. There western counterpart extremists (you) serve them well as tools. If my pointing that out unnerves you in some way feel free to attack me for saying so or ... just a thought, stop doing it. Its your freedom to choose of course.
