(My opinion: I would rather throw roses than stones at those who offend me, I would rather become friends with you than enemies, I would rather show tolerance than hate, I would rather treat you as I would like to be treated than breed more hate on your part. I guide myself by the teachings of my prophets, the prophets in Islam: Adam,Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus, Muhammed (Peace be upon them)... (so many prophets and so many good teachings from the Torah, The bible and the Quran) Tolerance and Love is the only way. I live by this Be kind and you shall find kindness in your brothers and sisters (whatever religion they might be).
Do you agree with this?

I wonder, do you read the Bible? You said there was so many good teachings in the Bible, if you believe this to be true, then you know what it says about Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is the Son of God. If you have read the Bible and it's teachings you also know that Jesus Christ died on the Cross for sins and after the third day He was resurrected, and you would also know that God called the Bible the True Word of God, wouldn't you.

Mt 22: 36-40 Law Law, where it NOTES the second(Law) is like unto the first(Law). In Rom 8:2 Law Law the first is sin & death.
Friend: I will never leave thee nor forsake thee...Grace
Enmity: I will forsake you, the city, your fathers...Law
Christ is our peace who abolished the enmity(law): Eph 2
God our Saviour: Grace... Merciful, Perfect
God our Destroyer: Law...Merciless, Faulty
Try(test drive) the two Spirits(Gods):
Law: isn't sufficient, so try Grace(with you all)
Grace: is sufficient, so flush Law(against us)
God in heaven, HIGHER than the heavens: GRACE
God on HIGH, in the plural divided heavens: LAW
Whosoever is justified by LAW is fallen from GRACE
Don't ppl recovering from getting HIGH & law tormented
afterward speak of a HIGHER power to help get "over" it.
The GRACE of our Lord Jesus Christ WITH YOU ALL. AMEN.

Joh 14:6
Jesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.
I agree with the "love one another" theme of your statement, but the why part of your statement, and the "whatever religion" part are nothing short of satanic.

i like that you expressed your heart.
If you have a good heart, teachings like this have a place to grow. Some people have no heart in which to grow compassion and caring for others. They are lost in caring only for themselves. regardless of what they say they believe, these folks are the saddest on the planet.
from a friend of Jesus, God bless you!

Certainly I do! Here is what Jesus said to us about loving your enemies (sorry it's sort of long):
"But I say unto you which hear, Love your enemies, do good to them which hate you, Bless them that curse you, and pray for them which despitefully use you. And unto him that smites you on the one cheek offer also the other; and him that taketh away your cloak forbid not to take your coat also. Give to every man that asks of you; and of him that takes away your goods ask them not again. And as you would that men should do to you, do you also to them likewise. For if you love them which love you, what thank have you? for sinners also love those that love them. And if you do good to them which do good to you, what thank have you? for sinners also do even the same."
I do struggle with this one all the time, that's why I have it memorized lol. It's hard for me personally to love the unlovely.

Roses have torns, I'd pick a safer flower to throw unless you want to injure someone walking over them in bare feet!

May God bless all those that need a blessing! We know that GOD IS LOVE, He spoke to us in the Holy Scripture to love our enemies and I agree with that and with all that helps us be better persons.

Do you mean be merciful to all? If so, presently I can agree presently with that idea.
