Raymond,
I do have some concerns I would like to ask you about. There are many independent reports about much persecution of Christians right know from Muslims in the Sudan, Pakistan and Egypt. If the Quran teaches so much love for Christians how can there be so much destruction of
Christians? Here is one report from the U.S. Senate on Religious Persecution;

<<Since declaring Sudan an Islamic state in 1983, the government's attempt to impose Shari'a (traditional Islamic law) has resulted in the death of more than 1.3 million people and the displacement of more than 3 million others, mostly Christian and non-Muslims.

In February 1996, Gaspar Biro (United Nation's Special Rapporteur on Sudan) reported "an alarming increase" in the number of cases of "slavery, servitude, slave trade and forced labor" in Sudan. With growing frequency, Christian villages are raided, men are exterminated, children forced into military training and women sold into slavery or relocated to concentration camps.

The Baltimore Sun reported, beginning on June 16, 1996, that two of its reporters went to Sudan and bought slaves for five hundred dollars each.

Under the Islamic Shari'a, conversion to Christianity is illegal. In August 1995, five Nuban women were sentenced to death for apostasy or abandoning Islam. In late 1995, ten persons were arrested for converting to Christianity>>

There are many other independent reports of the level of persecution of Christians from Muslims and there seems to be a consistency with this violence. I understand that is not what is written for Christianity has suffered the same problem but it was you that accused me of insulting the Muslim with unfactual information. Well here is the facts and I can give much more if needed.
How do you feel about the Nation of Islam and their relationship with Judaism?
I understand your defense of your beliefs but it would be more believable if you were little more gentle with others when expressing your understanding.
