"Truth" about Islam from an ex-Muslim

[diem]

wanna hear something stupid? in their so-called holy bible for a muslim to die in "jihad" he will be rewarded in heaven with 40 virgins!!! no wonder daghan magpakamatay

[color=navy]@denis_jay, stupid ha? Sounds just as stupid as the Catholic biblical depictions of the End of the World where a monster with ten horns and seven heads coming out of a sea who makes himself an enemy of the Christian Church. Revelation 13:1

I mean how stupid is that?

^ ows.. i haven't heard of that? hhmmm better researched that one out

[color=navy]You should. And I suggest that everyone should study the literature and culture of Islam before coming to condemnations quickly.

Condemnation does not liberate, it oppresses.

Nasa Allah ang awa, nasa tao ang gawa.

I am not a Muslim. I was baptized and raised as a Catholic, but in the search for truth I have studied the histories and religious literature on not only the Catholic Church, but also of Islam. And what I found is that Christianity and Islam is at heart not really different from each other, each require discipline, deeper understanding and hoped for goodness for all people.

Similarly, Islam and Christianity have been led astray by human leaders from the original faith. How could one consider one religion better than the other?

It is seen that Muslims are violent, while Christians well.... just take a look at our own government made of Christians! We have corruption in the government ergo Christians are corrupt?

I am very displeased with the direction this thread is going to. Instead of being an avenue of understanding and interest of Islam, it has become a soapbox of others who do not take the time to study, research and understand about Islam.

This is why I am locking this thread.

.. ok, first and foremost, ask yourselves " Does that woman represent the entire Islam religion ?? " Of course, the answer is NO. So, let's not believe a thing she is saying. It's very obvious that it's a fracking propaganda. Fabricated so that people may change their views about Islam.


.. but, why are most people condeming Islam ?? Just because most terrorists are muslims, is that their sole reason ?? Well, that's just pretty shallow to me. You should be asking to why Islams hate Christians in the first place, where does this hatred come from.

^short version...all in the name of god.

..not good enough answer. That's the common misconception on Islam. That they kill all in the name of God, which is true. but why do they do all these crazy stuff ??

i was reffering to: where does this hatred come from.

wasnt reffering to islam alone either.hehehe
just like the cnn documentary "all in the name of god",conflict in israel, jews, christians and muslims...

even christians have their share of the crazy stuffs*crusades.

i cant seeem to forget this passage i read it from somewhere:
During the Albigensian Crusade, when Inquisitors/Crusaders asked the Pope's representative on how to distinguish between the heretics from the true believers, the reply was: "Kill them all, God will know His own".

it reminds me of that ps1 game with bruce wilis, apocalypse yata..."kill'em all, let god sort them"

wicked sick

[fingolfin]

.. yeah, i'm glad you mentioned the Crusades. That's one event that the Christians killed in the name of God. So, let's not brand Islam as the only religion who kills for the sake of God. That rules out the generalization point of view.

[necrotic freak]

diem wants to close this thread, it simply because he's scared that he might know the real brutal truth of Islam.. naa ta raba cya plano mag muslim..

[evetyrone]

Men made religion ... but religion should not make or define a man ...


I don't truly understand why many have so much love for a God that they don't even see but lacks the capacity to love their fellow being that can also feel hurt, sad, and lonely.

the crusades.. well, christians kill in the name of God at that time its because christians had the right to defend their territory from the invading enemies which is the moslems..
