Did you know that:
1. Pork is mentioned in the bible that it is forbidden to eat it: why do you then?
2. Alcohol is Also mentioned in the bible to be forbidden: why do you drink it.
3. Also it is not mention that you can not marry more than one wife?
Please look into the Q&A in Islam in the following site:
http://www.irf.net/irf/main.htm
Then ask your self one Question: is it a possibility that you and your ancestors were misguided.

O.k here is my proff of what I am saying, and review your own bible and then confirm:
. Pork prohibited in the Bible
The Christian is likely to be convinced by his religious scriptures. The Bible prohibits the consumption of pork, in the book of Leviticus
"And the swine, though he divide the hoof, and be cloven footed, yet he cheweth not the cud; he is unclean to you".
"Of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their carcass shall ye not touch, they are unclean to you."
[Leviticus 11:7-8]
Pork is also prohibited in the Bible in the book of Deuteronomy
"And the swine, because it divideth the hoof, yet cheweth not the cud, it is unclean unto you. Ye shall not eat of their flesh, nor touch their dead carcass."
[Deuteronomy 14:8]
A similar prohibition is repeated in the Bible in the book of Isaiah chapter 65 verse 2-5.

2. Prohibition of alcohol in the Bible
The Bible prohibits the consumption of alcohol in the following verses:
"Wine is a mocker, strong drink is raging; and whosoever is deceived thereby is not wise."
[Proverbs 20:1]
"And be not drunk with wine."
[Ephesians 5:18]

2. The Qur’an is the only religious scripture in the world that says,"marry only one".
The Qur’an is the only religious book, on the face of this earth, that contains the phrase ‘marry only one’. There is no other religious book that instructs men to have only one wife. In none of the other religious scriptures, whether it be the Vedas, the Ramayan, the Mahabharat, the Geeta, the Talmud or the Bible does one find a restriction on the number of wives. According to these scriptures one can marry as many as one wishes. It was only later, that the Hindu priests and the Christian Church restricted the number of wives to one.
In earlier times, Christian men were permitted as many wives as they wished, since the Bible puts no restriction on the number of wives. It was only a few centuries ago that the Church restricted the number of wives to one.

As you said
3. Deuteronomy 17:17- Neither shall he multiply wives for himself, lest his heart turn away; nor shall he greatly multiply silver and gold for himself.
But it didn't say you can't and King David had more than 100 wifes.

Well, the bible is full of contradictions if you don't take the bible as a whole and simply pick and choose scriptures to create those contradictions.
You mention the banning of pork, which is in the Old Testament. Now, what if the banning of pork was a means to separate God's chosen people from the rest of the world.... (and perhaps at the time there was also other practical reasons for the ban, many of the old laws promote health and sanitary caonditions) ....if you read Acts 10, God gives Peter a vision. He shows Peter a great sheet descending from the heavens and in it were all kinds of animals. A voice calls out to him and says "Rise, Peter; kill and eat." Peter replies that he will not, nor has he ever eaten anything deemed common or unclean. The voice replies, "What God has made clean, do not call common."
It is easy enough to dispute the Bible, by its own words it becomes a weapon to those who refuse to see the whole picture. I have seen and read the Da Vinci code and I must say, if you really would like to see the truth behind the worlds greatest mysteries, take your bible, read it, study it, and with faith, prayer and love you will discover more than any fictional book could describe, a loving God.

Pork was forbidden in the old testament. When Jesus came, alot of the old laws were no longer necessary, such as eating pork.
Drinking alcohol is not forbidden, but you are not supposed to get drunk on alcohol.
I do not know the specific part that forbids marrying more than wife, but if I find it I'll get back to you.
I still don't get why non christians think we don't know what's in the bible. It is you who obviously doesn't know. You find something out and know nothing about why it's there or what it's purpose is or the context, and try to act like you know something about it. It only makes you look even more ignorant than you are. Why don't you just quit while you are ahead before you really embarrass yourself?
P.S. Don't you research anything? The entire Da Vinci theory has already been exposed as being based on a lie from one man in the 1940's who was trying to con his way into a family legacy. He actually admitted this in a court of law. Also, the rest of the so called "historical facts" have already been proven as historically inaccurate.

You are wrong.....
1. Pork is forbidden for the Jews to eat....not Christians...
Acts 10:13 The next day, as they went on their journey and drew near the city, Peter went up on the housetop to pray, about the sixth hour. Then he became very hungry and wanted to eat; but while they made ready, he fell into a trance and saw heaven opened and an object like a great sheet bound at the four corners, descending to him and let down to the earth. In it were all kinds of four-footed animals of the earth, wild beasts, creeping things, and birds of the air. And a voice came to him, “Rise, Peter; kill and eat.”
But Peter said, “Not so, Lord! For I have never eaten anything common or unclean.”
And a voice spoke to him again the second time, “What God has cleansed you must not call common.” This was done three times. And the object was taken up into heaven again.
2. Alcohol is not forbidden, drunkeness is. Jesus turned the water into wine during the wedding ceremony, He would have sinned had it been forbidden to drink. Jesus never sinned.
1Timothy 5:23 No longer drink only water, but use a little wine for your stomach’s sake and your frequent infirmities.
3. Deuteronomy 17:17- Neither shall he multiply wives for himself, lest his heart turn away; nor shall he greatly multiply silver and gold for himself.
I DO know my Bible, obviously your web site does not....
You need to read the verse carefully in Ephesians 5:18. It says not to get drunk...it doesn't say you cannot drink. A Christiain shouldn't drink so as to not make their brother stumble, but there is not a limitation to drinking other than being drunk....you are adding to the verse...
As far as one man for one woman Jesus said this:
‘For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh"
How can a man be joined with many women and become one flesh? A man is to leave his mother and father and be joined with his wife...not wives.....the plural of wife is not seen in the New Testament....
You are obsessed with multiple wives. Tell me then, why Mohammad had multiple wives if it is against the Quaran? He had 12- KHADIJAH- SAWDA BINT ZAM'A-AISHA SIDDIQA-HAFSAH BINT U'MAR-ZAYNAB BINT KHUZAYMA-SALAMA BINT UMAYYA-ZAYNAB BINT JAHSH-JUWAYRIYA BINT AL-HARITH-SAFIYYA BINT HUYAYY-UMMU HABIBA BINT SUFYAN-MAYAMUNA BINT AL-HARITH and MARIA AL-QABTIYYA

You don't know much about the Christian faith....
First off, yes pork is mentioned that Jews were not supposed to eat it BUT Christ came and fulfilled the prophecy in Daniel Ch. 9 that he would make a new covenant. We are no longer under Mosaic Law and therefore pork is fine to eat.
Secondly, alcohol is NOT forbidden... christians are only warned against excessivness, against becoming drunk.
Thirdly... NO we can't have more than one wife, and those very few sects that do practice that are not christian. They may claim to be, but are really nothing more than a cult, a wolf in sheepskin clothing.
Now you know, and can't claim ignorance in these matters.

Again I Will answer your Questions since you refuse to read or understand what you read. Unless you must be Jewish or muslim. If so you are to blinded and deaf to understanding, you are lost.
Mat 13:13 Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.
1. Mark 7:15 There is nothing from without a man, that entering into him can defile him: but the things which come out of him, those are they that defile the man. If any man have ears to hear, let him hear.
2. John 2:7,8,10 Jesus saith unto them, Fill the waterpots with water. And they filled them up to the brim. And he saith unto them, Draw out now, and bear unto the governor of the feast. And they bare [it]. And saith unto him, Every man at the beginning doth set forth good wine; and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: [but] thou hast kept the good wine until now.
3.1 Ti3:2,12A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behavior, given to hospitality, apt to teach. Let the deacons be the husbands of one wife, ruling their children and their own houses well.
Tts 1:6 If any be blameless, the husband of one wife, having faithful children not accused of riot or unruly.
God never condones having more than one wife if you really read your bible when they took more than one wife God troubled them. I will not look to a false religion. One Lord Christ Jesus is all i need. read the Bible find your self approved of God.......

You apparently yourself don't know as much about the Bible as you've convinced yourself you do.
Acts 10:15, The voice spoke to him a second time, "Do not call anything impure that God has made clean." (St. Peter, commanded by God to discontinue observance of food laws, such as abstaining from pork.)
Mark 7:15 "Nothing that enters one from outside can defile that person; but the things that come out from within are what defile." (Jesus, making all foods clean.)
I think you'll find that Christians know the Bible better than you believe them to; the difference, of course, is how we interpret. Yes, triumphalist muslim proselytizers will interpret it differerently than we do as they try (vainly) to convince us over their religion - but don't for a minute mistake that for "knowing it better."
As to monogamy - St. Paul wrote, "a bishop must be above reproach, the husband of one wife, temperate, sensible, dignified, hospitable, an apt teacher, no drunkard, not violent but gentle, not quarrelsome, and no lover of money." In the time since, all Christians have sought to meet that standard.
Christianity is more than a book. Christianity is singularly focused on Jesus, and as our society has evolved, we have strived to become a more Christ-like people, Jesus language about marriage in Matthew 19 makes clear that "they are no longer two, but one flesh" and "whoever divorces his wife (unless the marriage is unlawful) and marries another commits adultery." Jesus speaks of a marriage of two, an unbreakable union sealed by God.

Funny thing about christians:
They agree 100% to worldly things like wine and stuff but
they disagree 100% when asked about their own faith like why they beleive in the trinity when it is not mentioned in any (?) bible.
You have to be careful what you ask them.
