Islam is a religion of peace.
More like, Islam is a religion of piece!

Answer 2

fairly, ideologically speaking the two events switched components back interior the 1940's contained in the direction of the 1960's. They have been completely switched to what we see in the present day with the help of around 1968. yet neither party rather espouses racism anymore; its political suicide to attain this. There are racists in the two events, however the ideologies of the events themselves now not contain racism. And Black individuals, like each and every individuals, are completely able to determining which party will help them terrific and to be certain on that party. If its Democrats, they are going to stay; if its Republicans, they are going to swap. And if its a 0.33 party they are going to swap to that one. yet have faith me as quickly as I say each and each guy or woman in spite of race will pick as they see is terrific for helping them stay to tell the story and thrive.

Answer 3

No. Do you accept the invitation from Jesus Christ to believe and be saved? To join with God in love? To be set free from narrow minded religions invented by mere corrupt mortals?

What say you?

no, i as a person do not accept this invitation because it is not an invitation nor is islam the answer.

i do appreciate the self-righteousness in your question though, very muslim of you to have such humility.

Answer 5

Now Christians know how EVERYBODY else feels whenever they say "Accept Jesus, or burn in hell." He is saying the EXACT same thing, but with a different religion. If you don't want to respect him, then why the hell should we have to respect you? Idiots.

Answer 6

Excellent question. I suppose if a gun were to my head, like the FOX news team, I might consider converting to Islam.

The one page essay by Dr. Walid Phares, "Islamic concept of Al-Taqiyah to infiltrate and destroy kafir countries" is interesting:
http://www.fisiusa.org/fisi_News_items/news109.htm

Phares states, "It [taqiyah] is done to prevent the new converts from seeing the real face of Islam; at least until their faith or mental conditioning is strong enough to make them turn against their own country and people."

Not all Muslims blow up things, yet "jihad in the cause of Allah" "jihad fee sybil Allah" is "fard ayn" "compulsory duty" for all Muslims. Why? There are rules from the Quran for combattive jihad. Read this:
http://www.notislam.com/id8.html

What does the tape from Gadahn mean? Does anyone realize that Muslims are supposed to "dawa" "invite others to Islam" before jihad?

According to al-Mawardi an 11th Century Shafi'i jurist:

The mushrikun [infidels] of Dar al-Harb (the arena of battle) are of two types: First, those whom the call of Islam has reached, but they have refused it and have taken up arms.… Second, those whom the invitation to Islam has not reached, although such persons are few nowadays since Allah has made manifest the call of his Messenger…it is forbidden to…begin an attack before explaining the invitation to Islam to them, informing them of the miracles of the Prophet and making plain the proofs so as to encourage acceptance on their part; if they still refuse to accept after this, war is waged against them and they are treated as those whom the call has reached…

In the Hidayah, vol. II. p. 140 (Hanafi school):
It is not lawful to make war upon any people who have never before been called to the faith, without previously requiring them to embrace it, because the Prophet so instructed his commanders, directing them to call the infidels to the faith, and also because the people will hence perceive that they are attacked for the sake of religion, and not for the sake of taking their property, or making slaves of their children, and on this consideration it is possible that they may be induced to agree to the call, in order to save themselves from the troubles of war… If the infidels, upon receiving the call, neither consent to it nor agree to pay capitation tax, it is then incumbent on the Muslims to call upon God for assistance, and to make war upon them, because God is the assistant of those who serve Him, and the destroyer of His enemies, the infidels, and it is necessary to implore His aid upon every occasion; the Prophet, moreover, commands us so to do."

You are absolutely right. There are varying degrees. You may be interested to read a document which discusses the degrees of Islam in great detail (50+ pages) -- "From dawa to jihad - the various threats from radical Islam to the democratic legal order":
