Re: the sacred texts
The difference is the sacred texts of the gospels demand religious liberty whereas the opposite is true for Islam and the Koran (and Sharia). That may make reform of Islam a somewhat daunting task. Mohammed was a conquering general. Jesus eschewed forced conversion and use of physical violence as a means to promote his teachings.
Oh really? you think so? Shall we review the oh so holy bible?
Anyone who dreams or prophesizes anything that is against God, or anyone who tries to turn you from God, is to be put to death. (Deuteronomy 13:5)
If anyone, even your own family suggests worshipping another God, kill them. (Deuteronomy 13:6-10)
If you find out a city worships a different god, destroy the city and kill all of it's inhabitants... even the animals. (Deuteronomy 13:12-15)
Kill anyone with a different religion. (Deuteronomy 17:2-7)

Like I told Randman

Re: no true Muslim
Moduluous..... great post... but you are forgetting their most important argument/point.
Christianity is the true religion and Islam is fake.

Sum it Up
So let's see what we have learned on this thread.
- Anyone who interprets the bible as calling for violence is wrong
- Anyone who interprets the koran as peaceful is wrong
- The NT trumps the OT when it comes to war and peace, but the OT trumps the NT when it comes to hating gays
- Osama Bin Laden and Khomeni should be used to judge all muslims
- Jesus should be used to judge all christians
- The Koran is very violent, but no one can find/quote the violent parts
- The violent parts of the bible quoted are being interpreted wrong or don't apply anymore (I'm glad we can just decide which of god's laws to accept)
- Even though they have the same god, the islam one is fake and the christian one isn't
