Okay, the experiment worked: it doesn't matter what question you ask, people will always be ready to prove you that your question is stupid believing that, by doing this, they will show their superiority. Well, I have done the same thing so many times, so I guess that we are the same.
By the way, I don't go to church. I would have defended the Muslims, but I haven't seen anyone (today, at least, but I might be very wrong) insulting them.
Cheers.

Those who come to insult anyone are truly low lifes, this should be a forum where good questions can be asked and answered. Not a place for people of low self esteem to temporarily boost it lol..

Anyone whose purpose it to try and insult another religion or religious group isn't living a very christlike way. The rebuttle of you analogy of the dog and horse makes me wonder if they havn't hurt you or insulted you. Be not easily offended and love your neighbor. A true christian should love everyone and realize that they are hurting and probably need love in return not hate!

More like Saul, kicking against the goads.

NIV
Acts 26:14 We all fell to the ground, and I heard a voice saying to me in Aramaic, 'Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me? It is hard for you to kick against the goads.'

I think it is very important that we show love to those who insult or persecute.

After all... WWJD?

Let's ask Him... by going into His holy word.

Matthew 5:43-48:
"Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy.
But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;
That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.
For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same?
And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so?
Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect."

I ask you, which would be a more Christian manner to deal with this situation? Allow me to rephrase.... Which would be a more Christ-like manner?
We ought to show love to them and "Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father which is in Heaven."

Let us not compare them to dogs, but let us show that Christian love to them, and pray for them. You never know, your Christian testimony could convince them to give God another chance, or your anti-christian testimony might push them away from Him.

"A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another." John 13:34 & 35

God bless you, I will pray that you find the truth.

They are the MOST precious children of G-d actually, the ones who have not come to Him are the ones He desires most.

No. The people who came here to insult the Christians remind me of Christians ;-)

I'm quite proud of that one.

I don't see the comparison. Try another one. Maybe there's one in the flawed, man-made Bilbe.
