Matthew 10:34
Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.
This is a stupid argument.

The sword is metaphorical. Read the rest of that passage.

You missed the point.

No its not a stupid argument The Quran has hundred Plus verses instructing believers to commit violence against non believers. No other religious text has that And most importantly you have to factor in the fact people arent going "Oh hey jesus said he brought a sword so now all us christians need to get a sword too". Christians arent out there suicide bombing and beheading people like muslims do every single day. On the flip side the Quran tells specifically the believers to behead people and guess what? They are

Изменено (EetnoAni): 3/23/2016 6:40:31 AMDude, Christians in Africa have committed atrocities approaching genocide a number of times in recent memory. You conveniently leave out data to make this argument. It is stupid. It also shows how little you are willing to learn about the world around you.

LMFAO Christians in Africa are being slaughtered by Boko haram as we speak!!!!

Изменено (EetnoAni): 3/23/2016 7:57:21 AMThis doesn't make my previous statement somehow untrue. It does demonstrate again your easy dismissal of other groups committing atrocities in an effort to demonize an enormous group of people. In truth none of these acts, committed by whatever group, should be excused or condoned... But nor should they be used in your kind of fear mongering or the demonization of an entire religion or culture.

I forgot... Here's your homework... Central African Republic. Read about the conflict and the terrible things both sides are doing to each other.

Изменено (EetnoAni): 3/23/2016 11:01:31 AMIn case you missed it, I referenced (possibly in another comment) atrocities in the name of Christianity occurring in Africa... Many have happened in the last few years. It's sad you don't even know this has been going on.

Ffs read the whole chapter.

I have. But that's the point. Cherry picking verses is a terrible argument to begin with. Which is why OP's post is rather ignorant.

Read the whole thing

Изменено (EetnoAni): 3/23/2016 6:20:09 AMNot sure what you mean... My only point was violent verses can be found across religions. It's silly to judge the beliefs of 1.6B people based on cherry picked single phrases from a 2000 year old text.
