The only difference is that he has his God do the smoting and killing, not his congregation.

This constitutes a substantial difference. Christian theology sometimes grants people the right to do things that are unscriptural and we leave much of this in the hands of God, but God is good and certainly is never the slave of evil desires.

More simply put, the distinct difference between Christianity and Islam is that Christians believe Christ will return to remake the world and Moslems believe they will remake the world through their own efforts.

I wasn't wrong about Falwell he is as hateful as those Muslims who preach hate and violence.

This is just plain stupid. You have claimed Falwell at one time or another “has called for the deaths of Jews, feminists and gays.” Message 18589319

I challenged you to prove this and you just could not do it. You could not do it because you are dead wrong.

Falwell has not done any such thing as the muslims do. He merely tells what he thinks God is going to do, based upon his view of the Scriptures. That is a heck of a lot different than what the muslims do, which is tell muslims across the whole friggin’ world to go out and murder innocent people.

The only difference is that he has his God do the smoting and killing, not his congregation…

Profound stupidity. Falwell does ‘get his God’ to do anything because to Falwell, God is no one who can be pushed around. Falwell only teaches why he thinks certain things have happened and what he thinks God is going to do in response to sin.

You are lying on the guy, trying to make him as whacky as muslims who are literally calling other muslims to murder people. There is no need for so many lies, tejek. If you don't like Falwell, then honestly state why you do not like him. But you dishonor yourself, and not Falwell, by what you do here. Flatly lying and persisting in being a liar is not honorable at all.
