Answer 2

Jesus was executed by the Romans. When Pilate asked some Jews if they wished him to spare Jesus, they said no. It was from this action that some Christians have condemned all Jews, saying that they were responsible for the execution of Jesus. I believe this was one of the motivating factor in 1492, when Jews in recently conquered Moorish Spain were told they must convert to Christianity.

Many Christians and Jews attack Islam out of ignorance and fear. There are many Christians and Jews, however, that work with Muslims to build bridges and to look to ways to find peace.

Answer 3

The Jews in Jesus' day wanted to kill Him because He made Himself equal with God. But only the Romans had authority to kill anyone, so those Jews forced Pilate to crosify Jesus.

Now they did the act, but Jesus died for our sins also, for every person who has every lived! Jesus gave His life to save us.

I am not sure what you mean by attacking Islam with His death in the present or future.

Answer 4

Actually He was executed in a legal manner after being duly convicted of insurrection by a Roman Magistrate. (Murder is the ILLEGAL killing of another.) Whoever performed the actual Crucifixion is anybody's guess...but were likely some military-types employed by the Roman government. Many of the Roman soldiers stationed in Israel were actually Gauls or Spaniards.

Regardless, with my being a Catholic, I can attest that we bring the past into the present every day...particularly at Mass where the entire Rite centers around memorializing (NOT repeating or recreating) the Sacrifice of Jesus.

Answer 5

Jesus was not murdered in the human sense as He went willingly to the cross.
one cannot volunteer to be murdered.
that is called suicide.
Jesus was crucified by the Romans at the behest of the Jews.
They, however, had no choice in the matter for it was arrainged by God.
God willed that His Son, Jesus Christ, would be crucified that day and no one could have stopped it but God.
Jesus is God. He is alive today.
He, therefore, is relevent in the past, present and future when discussing Islam.

Answer 6

lol good point. but as a muslim who was an ex christian they say that it was the jews who refused to accept jesus p.b.u.h. as the comming messiah. the muslims standpoint on all of this is muslims do not believe that jesus was ever murdered. we believe that jesus was lifted into heaven and the anti christ was sacraficed on the cross instead. i find it ironic how much christians hate the muslims considering muslims believe in jesus because allah revealed it to the muslims that jesus was a holy prophet of god. how ever the jews reject jesus and a true jew will never accept jesus. (an orthodox jew) but yet as the quran states jews and christians are among the brotherin! this is the way it goes and for some only the day of jugement will clarify things.

Answer 7

Jesus did not break any Roman law. Pontius Pilate executed him to keep the Jewish underclass from rioting so that Ceasar wouldn't come down hard on him. Jesus offended the Jewish elders and they wanted him killed. Pontius offered them a murderer to kill instead but the Jews demanded the blood of Jesus. Christians like to forget their long sordid history of violence towards other but they are faily quick to throw it at the Muslims.

Answer 8

No...Jesus was executed by the Romans because of his behavior. If someone in our society ran around claiming to be the son of God, screaming about the Government, calling all of the religious leaders immoral and corrupt, and then went to the banks and turned over the vaults...he'd be jailed. Back then they were executed. He directly challenged the authority of a society. What would you expect that society to do? The woe as me Jesus was murdered theme song....."I fought the law, and the law won".

Answer 9

Jesus wasn't murdered. He was condemned by the Jews and executed by the Romans. That was just an event in history. It has no relevance to the present, nor the future. Years from now, would you like to see people saying, "Saddam was condemned by America, which failed to save him, and executed by the Iraqis, and what that means to us today is..." A martyr is a martyr, and martyrs die believing that their deaths will have significance far into the future. I don't like martyrs, or what they stand for, which is one of the main problems I have with Jesus.

Answer 10

Materially speaking Jesus was crucified as a result of the pressure the Jews placed on the Romans if they (the Romans) refused to crucify Him.

Spiritually speaking Christ was crucified because of our sins.

Answer 11

I believe that Jesus was put to death because he was causing problems for the Jewish leadership, by riling up the population at the time. The Jews were under Roman rule and Herod was in charge of that part of the world as a representative of Rome. The High Priests of the time were concerned that the population would start to believe that Jesus was the Messiah and his following would gain momentum and cause an uprising. The Jews at that time believed that the Messiah would come and get rid of the Romans. There were many men claiming to be the Messiah at the time, and most of them were put to death. Barabus was one of the lucky ones who got a pardon. I don't think the Jews murdered Jesus, I think his followers put him in a position of power that threatened the livelyhood of the population. The Jewish leaders of the time knew what the Romans were capable of and were afraid that an uprising would cause a mass extermination. They were right, 70 years after Christ's death the Jews rebelled and the Romans answered by crushing them. There were crosses lined up for miles.

I think the reason that Christians and Jews talk about the present when they talk about Islam has something to do with current events. You may not have heard about the World Trade Center but you should read up about what happened there, who was responsible and in who's name it was done.

There are a few other current events that may help you understand the angst:

Muslims murdered 3,000 innocents in New York
Muslims murdered 202 tourists in Bali
Muslims murdered 333 schoolchildren and their teachers in Beslan
Muslims murdered 292 innocents, mainly Kenyans and Tanzanians at two US Embassies
Muslims murdered 241 US and 58 French peace keepers in Beirut
Muslims fired 4,000 Katyusha rockets into Northern Israel killing over 50 innocent civilians
Muslims murdered 52 in London and 191 in Madrid
Muslims murdered 200 in Mumbai and expect no criticism.
Muslims beheaded Western hostages in Iraq, Buddhist monks in Thailand and Christian schoolgirls in Indonesia
Muslims murdered 500,000 in Darfur
Muslims regard Jews as 'sons of pigs and monkeys', and vow to nuke Israel
Muslims force women to wear hideous sacks, stone to death women for getting raped and for leaving the home unescorted, engage in honor killings of sisters and daughters for unapproved dating
Muslims danced in the streets and handed out sweets to their kids to celebrate the 9/11 atrocity
Since 9/11 Muslims have killed over 26,000 and wounded over 50,000 in terrorist attacks worldwide since 9/11
Since 9/11 Muslims have committed terrorist attacks in Afghanistan, Algeria, Bangladesh, Belgium, Chad, Chechnya, Dagestan, Denmark, East Timor, Egypt, England, Eritrea, Ethiopia, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Ingushetia, Iran, Iraq, Israel, Jordan, Jordan-Iraq,
Kabardino-Balkans, Kenya, Kosovo, Kuwait, Kyrgyzstan, Lebanon, Mauritania, Morocco, Netherlands, Nigeria, Pakistan, Gaza-Palestinian Authority, Philippines, Qatar, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Scotland, Somalia, Spain, Sri Lanka, Sudan, Syria, Tajikistan, Thailand, Tunisia, Turkey, United Arab Emirates, United Arab Republic, United States, Uzbekistan and Yemen

Muslims have carried out over 5,800 fatal terrorist atrocities
since 9/11

This by in no way means that all muslims are terrorists or that the Islam religion is wrong. What it does mean is that there is something very wrong happing within the religion. Many will say that these are actions of only a few. 5,800 individual terrorist acts is not a small number, and only represents the people who were willing to pull the trigger. It doesn't show the multitudes of sympathizers, and people who agree with the actions but don't carry them out.

There is a big problem happening in the Muslim world right now and many Muslims refuse to admit it. If Islam is a religion of peace, you have a responsibility to ensure that the radicals who have taken the lead are deposed.

That is why the western world talks about the present atrocities of Islam and not so much the past atrocities of Christianity. We are alive today, and terror that happened in the past is no excuse for terror happing today, it is all VERY wrong and morally appalling.
