when their own bible does the same? (especially those parts that mention homosexuals and witches?)

Fist of all the First Epistle of Tiomthy chapter one talks about the law of moses stating in verse 8 that the law is good. So lets look at a couple verses of the law shall we?

Leviticus 18:22 says thou shall not lie with mankind as with womankind the punishment is listed in verse 30

In Leviticus chapter 20 the death penalty is prescribed for anyone that among other things worships a diferent god, commits homosexuality, and those involve with spiritualism

In leviticus 24:11 a blasphemer was put to death.

Exedous 22:18 says thou shall not suffer a witch to live

also Jude 1:7 hints at the punisment that should be handed out to gays,

and Jude 1:14-15 says that the lord and his saints shall execute the ungodly

For those of you that want to claime that the old testement is not relevant I say then why is it still published along side your new testament and used to support the truth of your christ

Because they are blind to their own nonsense. See, it's okay to kill in God's name, but it's evil to kill in Allah's name. It's okay to demand the incerceration and execution of unbelievers, but it's very bad for unbelievers to even consider fighting the Godly. It's simple. The RR is blind, hypocritical, and arrogant.

What Bible are you reading? The Bible doesn't say anything about murdering homosexuals and witches. Christianity does not condone those practices (homosexuality and witchcraft), but we don't kill people who are involved in such practices. Christians believe it is a sin to commit murder.

There have been instances of people calling themselves "Christian" and doing that sort of thing but these people are not truly Christian.

Perhaps it is because of verses such as the following in the Quran. These are just a few samplings that are directed towards disbelievers. Disbelievers are anyone who isn’t a Muslim. Remember, these are supposed to be the words of Allah.

8:12 I will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve. Therefore strike off their heads and strike off every fingertip of them.
2:191, And slay them wherever ye catch them
2:193, And fight them on until there is no more Tumult or oppression
2:216, Fighting is prescribed for you, and ye dislike it. But it is possible that ye dislike a thing which is good for you
3:28, Let not the believers Take for friends or helpers Unbelievers rather than believers: if any do that, in nothing will there be help from Allah
4:84, Then fight in Allah’s cause - Thou art held responsible only for thyself - and rouse the believers. It may be that Allah will restrain the fury of the Unbelievers; for Allah is the strongest in might and in punishment.
5:33, The punishment of those who wage war against Allah and His Messenger, and strive with might and main for mischief through the land is: execution, or crucifixion, or the cutting off of hands and feet from opposite sides, or exile from the land: that is their disgrace in this world, and a heavy punishment is theirs in the Hereafter;
9:5, But when the forbidden months are past, then fight and slay the Pagans wherever ye find them, and seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them in every stratagem.
9:14, Fight them, and Allah will punish them by your hands, cover them with shame, help you (to victory) over them, heal the breasts of Believers,
9:23, O ye who believe! take not for protectors your fathers and your brothers if they love infidelity above Faith: if any of you do so, they do wrong.
9:28, O ye who believe! Truly the Pagans are unclean; so let them not, after this year of theirs, approach the Sacred Mosque.
9:29, Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, (even if they are) of the People of the Book, until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued.
9:39, Unless ye go forth, (for Jihad) He will punish you with a grievous penalty, and put others in your place; but Him ye would not harm in the least
9:73, O Prophet! strive hard against the unbelievers and the Hypocrites, and be firm against them. Their abode is Hell,- an evil refuge indeed.
9:123, O ye who believe! fight the unbelievers who gird you about, and let them find firmness in you: and know that Allah is with those who fear Him.
25:52, So obey not the disbelievers, but strive against them herewith with a great endeavour.
47:4, Therefore, when ye meet the Unbelievers (in fight), smite at their necks; At length, when ye have thoroughly subdued them, bind a bond firmly (on them): thereafter (is the time for) either generosity or ransom: Until the war lays down its burdens.
48:13 And if any believe not in Allah and His Messenger, We have prepared, for those who reject Allah, a Blazing Fire!
48:29, Muhammad is the messenger of Allah; and those who are with him are strong against Unbelievers, (but) compassionate amongst each other.
3:85, If anyone desires a religion other than Islam (submission to Allah), never will it be accepted of him; and in the Hereafter He will be in the ranks of those who have lost (All spiritual good).
8:39, And fight them on until there is no more tumult or oppression, and there prevail justice and faith in Allah altogether and everywhere.

That is just a small sampling. Any questions?

Do you have a link? I don't think the New Testament "advocates" any such thing.
