Ernie, you say Islam is bad?

Question

You say that Islams teach that they should kill everyone who does not believe otherwise and you said Christianity would never say something like that. You are right, it is a lot worse.

Christianity advocates the killing of rebelious children.

"And he that curseth his father, or his mother, shall surely be put to death." (Exodus 21:17) "For every one that curseth his father or his mother shall be surely put to death: he that cursed his father or his mother; his blood shall be upon him." (Leviticus 20:9)

Christianity advocates the smashing of infants against rocks.

"O daughter of Babylon, who art to be destroyed; happy shall he be, that rewardeth thee as thou hast served us. Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stones." (Psalm 137:8-9)

Christianity advocates war.

"Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword." (Matthew 10:34)

Christianity advocates the murdering of woman who engage in prematital sex.

"If any man take a wife, and go in unto her . . . and say, I took this woman, and when I came to her, I found her not a maid . . . and the tokens of virginity be not found for the damsel: Then they shall bring out the damsel to the door of her father's house, and the men of her city shall stone her with stones that she die . . ." (Deuteronomy 22:13-21)

Christianity advocates killing those who work on Sundays.

"Six days shall work be done, but on the seventh day there shall be to you an holy day, a sabbath of rest to the Lord: whoseoever doeth work therein shall be put to death. Ye shall kindle no fire throughout your habitations upon the sabbath day." (Exodus 35:2)

Christianity even worships a God whos name is Jealous.

"For thou shalt worship no other god: for the Lord, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God." (Exodus 34:14)

Care to explain yourself?

Answer 1

Christianity is full of contradictions and is voilent. The real, true Christianity was manipulated.

Answer 2

Azmurath,

The fifth commandment says to honor thy father and thy mother. So why, in the first place, would anyone curse at his mother or father? And also, notice this is in the Old Testament. I'll comment on that later.

Psalm 137: 8-9 doesn't advocate the smashing of infants on rocks. It says that one will be happy when he has repaid the people of Babylon as Babylon has treated the him. It is talking of destroying Babylon completely.

Matthew 10:34 does not advocate war. When Christ came, and still today, he did bring a sword. It further explains this in 10:35-38. What it is saying is that those who choose men over Christ will be against those who choose Christ over men. And is this not so? Are not many people who are against Christ against those who choose Christ?

Christianity does not advocate the murdering of women who engage in premarital sex. If you are talking about the "stoning" notice that this is in the Old Testament. Before Christ came, this is how things were done. The Jews were bound by many laws that do not bound Christians. Look at Leviticus. We are bound by grace.

I've done the best I can to answer. If it's not to your pleasure, I recommend talking to a pastor, seeing that a pastor is much more able to answer your questions. :)
