Subject: Islamic View of Crucifixion? |
Bible Note: Taleb You obviously have and anti Israel perspective. Let me say one thing Israel is and will always be God's chosen, you can stand in opposition to the first covenant if you want and try to justify Islam but I don't buy it. Islam was born in blood, was spread by blood and exists many places today in blood. Everyone wants to discuss the Crusades as an example of Christian holy war. Come on anyone with even a minimal amount of historical knowledge knows the crusades where more political and adventuresome than religious. You try to incite emotions by bringing up Israel’s attacking the USS Liberty a tragic mishap but certainly not an example of Jewish religion out of control. Israel was fighting for their very existence and were shooting at anything that moved. I guess you would say the horrible incident where the American planes bombed the Canadians is classic example of Christianity run amok. You talk about the rape of Lebanon and the killing of Christian Palestinians when in fact it was the Israel defending and protecting them from calculated extermination by political forces within Lebanon and Syria. Sure some were killed in the fighting by Israeli gun fire and bombs but look how many French citizens were accidentally killed as the allies freed their land. War is not pretty. You ask how many years did Arabs and Jews live side by side, if you read the Bible you know that God has clearly stated there would always be animosity between the two nations. Once again you pull the discussion down to individual level and I have clearly stated as a Christian we are to love Muslims, to share Jesus with them and show them what real Christianity is. However we should never forget that Islam desires to eliminate us from the face of the earth. EdB |
