I am a follower of Christ.
I don't think either you or I want to be judged based on what crazy people professing our respective religions have done.
We are to know other Christians by the "Fruit" that they bear.
* love;
* joy;
* peace;
* patience;
* kindness;
* goodness;
* faithfulness;
* gentleness;
* self-control.
If they do not bear this fruit then we are not to consider them Christians but false witnesses. I think your problem is with false witnesses, not Christians. Luckily you seem to know this.
Please join me in encouraging people to stop using the name of my religion as a generic term to describe homicidal maniacs and I will do the same for you. Thank you and God Bless.

Actually, if Jesus and Muhammad were face-to-face, there's a pretty good chance one would send the other to Hell. Jesus will judge the living and the dead.
One of my main problems with islam, and in turn Muslims, is that you have NEVER self-criticized anything done in the name of your religion or by its followers. You're still doing the same. Blaming everyone else but yourselves. Pitiful.
We don't have a Christian government in the USA. Followers of islam have declared a holy war with the world. Admit what the real problem is finally and maybe then something can be done to stop it.
God Bless.

If Jesus and Muhammad were to face off in earth today, Jesus would tell him the same thing that he told the Jewish leaders and the world of his time. " I am the way, the truth, and the life. NO man comes to the Father, but by me."
You stated that Muslims only react when provoked? Were they provoked to attack on 9-11? If so, how?
And are you saying that ONLY Muslims have a right to retaliate if provoked? Remember, Japan attacked us first!
It was Christians who fought to free the slaves! What about the blacks who SOLD slaves??? Any culpability on their part?

Actually, Christians are not the only ones who did all those things. Muslims have had their share also, 9/11 for instance. Just because we have been saved by Jesus and forgiven of our sins, we still sin. We are not ever perfect. Because you can have a relationship with God, he forgives us. We still do stupid things, but God LOVES us anyways. Yes the Bible says to love one another, but we are only human. Since you appear to have read a verse from Matthew, why don't you look this up for me. Matthew 16:13-27. Jesus basically challenges Simon Peter by saying who do you say I am. Does peter say a prophet? No, because that is not the answer. He says Thou art the Christ, the Son of the Living God. Don't you know that Jesus loves all of us, and died on the cross for our sins? But God raised Him from the grave on the third day and he is still with us today. God is omnipresent, meaning he's everywhere. And yes, unless you ask God to forgive you of your sins{because WE ALL sin} you will go to Hell. John 14:6 says: I am the way, the truth, and the light. NO ONE comes to the Father but through me. That was Jesus speaking.

Your history is very flawed, Muslims still enslave people in Africa. America went into Iraq, the Philippines and Afghanistan to make the world safe against Muslim terrorism and has been very successful. The US was attacked many times and showed extreme patience until the unprovoked attack by Muslim terrorists against innocent civilians. Islam represents evil in the world and must be isolated from civilized society.
In Christ

I hear what u are saying, however, we are not responsible for what other Christians do...only what each individual does.
