Why can't this religion think for themselves? Why do they need a book (quran) to tell them every move to make in life? Is Islam for the weak mind? How are they so brainwashed into believing the ridicilous lies of the Quran?
Quotes from QURAN:
# "Make war on them until idolatry is no more and Allah's religion reigns supreme." (Koran 8:37)
# The Koran instructs not to make friendship with Jews and Christians (Koran 5:51) but to war against them: "When the Sacred Months are over, kill those who ascribe partners to God wheresoever ye find them; seize them, encompass them, and ambush them; then if they repent and observe prayer and pay the alms, let them go their way (Koran 4:5). "Fight against those who believe not in God nor in the Last Day, who... refuse allegiance to the True Faith from among those who have received the Book, until they humbly pay tribute out of hand." (Koran 9:29) Note: These verses distinguish between warfare against pagans, and against Jews and Christian

My ultimate point is, that Islam claims to be a religion, but that is the greatest lie that has ever surfaced on this planet. It is FAR FAR away from being a peace religion. Being a true Muslim, means being an Extremist. And being an Extremist, is being a terrorist.

Your conclusion is quite wrong You can not interprete only one verse you must read the whole context and also the background why a verse is conveyed by God in order you have the true meaning of it..Our holy Qur'an is dedicated by God for all humans in this world not only for muslims.Islam is for all humans but God gives us a free choice whether we will comply to it or not.There is no force to enter Islam.As a life guide it should be complete and can not be misintrepreted or misled..So Muhammad pbuh gave his explanation which has been collected into one book called Hadith also as life guide.
Verse 4.5 (An Nisaa)is a God's instruction to manage the wealthy of an orphan before he/she grown up if someone can be fair and objective for the sake of the orphan.Verse 5.5.(Al Maidah) yes God instructed muslims do not appoint jew or christian to be his/her leader if the jew/christian is cruel or tyrant or zalim.Verse 8.37 (Al Anfaal) haram months in islamic calendar is certain (4 months in a year) and can not be delayed and postponed.But the islamic enemy at that time Jahilyah wanted the haram month be delayed ,because they wanted to attack muslims so God instructed muslims to reattacked them although in the haram month(God instructed peace during haram months) .Verse 9.29(At Taubah) at that time Muhammad pbuh made a peaceful agreement with jews in Madinah that all jews will be protected by muslims if they paid jirzyah or islamic taxes to the muslim government and they should comply to the muslim laws and regulations.If they did not want to pay taxes and obeyed lwas and regulations they should move or they will be killed.That was a require ment at that era.

completely fake: I secure the Quran verses so which you will look them up... Muhammad grew to become right into a self-serving (33:50-fifty 3), illiberal (5:fifty one), polygamist (4:3) warlord (8:a million, 33:27). He recruited warriors by using promising them spoils of conflict (8:sixty 9, 40 8:19-20) and massive-breasted virgins (seventy 8:33) in a gold-crammed paradise (80 one:31). Others joined to steer away from the humiliating “infidel tax” (9:29), loss of life, mutilation or expulsion (5:33). Muhammad used those warring parties to unfold his faith with the sword (9:5, 9:29), advance himself concept conquest (8:a million, 8:40-one) and benefit get admission to to the females who have been captured or made widows by using his advancing military (33:50, 70:30). on an analogous time as writing the Quran, Muhammad labored in lots of very own, tailored reward for himself (33:37-38, 33:50-fifty 3). The Quran allowed Muhammad to dominate his different halves (33:30-34) even after his very own loss of life (33:fifty 3). He warned his different halves that they are going to burn in hell in the event that they demonstrate his secrets and techniques (sixty six:3-5, sixty six:10). Muhammad used this “holy e book” to slander the Jews (2:ninety six, 5:13, 5:80 two) besides as his very own (111:a million-5) and political enemies (9:13-14). The Quran contains medical (13:3, sixty seven:5, 86:7), mathematical (4:eleven-12) and historic (18:80 3-ninety seven) blunders besides to sexist (4:34, 2:223, 2:228, 23:6) and barbaric (5:38) teachings that haven't any place in the international immediately.

Your logic is flawed. Every major religion is based on some scriptures. No religion can "think for itself". However, the application of religio does require a lot of thought process, I agree. Whats wrong with following Quran? I assume, you must be citizen of a country. Do you follow its law? I assume yes, otherwise you would be writing these questions from the jail. Similarly, if you have worked in a corporate environment, you would have discovered that each organization has a certain set of rules or guidelines. What are the great management systems all about that we hear so much in the corporate world? Are they not set of rules? What are the ISO certifications? Are all these not guidelines to be followed and in some cases certifications achieved on how good you are following them? Have you never consulated the operating manual of a machine before operating it? If you have trouble ever in a machine don't you first of all consult its troubleshooting and operating guide?
If we follow guidelines and rules and procedures in so mundane issues of our life, how can we think about the very life that we live, the purpose of our existence to be without any guidelines? Don't you feel it to be illogical?
Quran, my friend, is a book of guidelines for living life. The human is created by God so Quran is the operating manual of the machine called human from its Creator. Is it so hard to understand? So, we DO use our mind in applying the guidelines to our daily life but we always take the guidelines from Quran.
It would be intereting for you to know, probably, that Quran over and over asks people to think, to ponder, to meditate and THEN come to the truth. It does not want blind followers. GOd wants every human being to ponder on life, to use whatever reason and logic he has and then come to the final conclusion about truth.
Quran is not a book of lies. Tell me where do you think the Quran is telling lies and I'll prove to you that you misunderstood.
The verses that you have quoted are not translated correctly. I recommend you to visit the site www.asanquran.com and see the correct English translation. Moreover, please do not forget to read the reference to the context of these verses. That is important because many a times things lose their meaning when taken out of context. Most of the verses you have quoted have been revealed at the time of serious war fare with the nonbelievers. The psychlogy of war is, of course, different than peace. When people are conspiring against you, breaking their contracts with you (in case of Jew tribes) and joining your enemies, of course it would be said to the people that do not befriend them who have turned their backs on you. Thats but only logical.

The verses you took from Quran are not applicable to all cases.
For example, the verse you quoted 8:37, the "them" is reffering to those who had a peace agreement with the Muslim, then broke it.
So, the "them" is not applicable on you or anyone else in this life.
Most of the anti-Islamic website use this kinda methods to portrait Quran as an Evil book.
