*"...You religious types think your religion is the true religion and your god is the true god...."* Boy howdy, ain't that the truth! They make fun of the ancient gods of the Egyptians, Incas and Aztecs. Nevermind that man has invented god since he first worshiped fire. Now, with a straight face, they INSIST that they have the only true god. And if you don't believe it you are certainly going straight to hell for eternity. Grown men believing in the Great Boogie Man in the sky! How silly can you get?

My opinion is based on history and my study of a Life of Muhammed I bought from a Muslim website. It details the facts about Muhammed. I've read the NT and Jesus was nothing like Muhammed and that does make a difference. You can't a mandate for violence in the NT, unlike the Koran, Hadith, and Sira. Just as it is with Christianity and with most religions. You religious types think your religion is the true religion and your god is the true god. And when people don't buy into your 'truth', you go all apeshit. That moral equivalence tactic is bogus. I don't go all apeshit at you folks. You have posted death wishes for people like me though. Why do you think smarter men than you wanted religion kept out of the gov't??? To protect the freedom of religion. It was actually an establishment of religion they banned, as well as infringements on the practice of religion. They didn't want religion per se kept out of govt. The FF's actually held church services in Congress for decades, called national days of prayer regularly, and looked on religion as a desirable bastion of public morality which they knew to be necessary for the nation to flourish. 'Mass murder, beheadings, highway robbery, enslavement, rape, torture, terrorism' ..........all done in the name of Christianity. Then why aren't Christians still doing this??? There are more Christians than ever before. In fact, those things WEREN'T normally done in the name of Christ. Those who malign Christianity usually have to harken back 500 yrs to the Spanish Inquisition which was an isolated and unusual situation. The motivation behind what that man did.......killing 5 innocent people...........is far more complicated than your claim that Islam is a violent religion. And we best find out what the true motivation is in order to prevent more killings. His last act before the attack was to tweet a saying of Muhammed from a hadith. Who are you gonna believe, tejek or the shooter himself?
