It's a fairly poor analogy. Judaism, Christianity, and Islam are all faiths. There is no proof, no discovery. There is only belief.

How about giving us the correct quote.

And tell me which bible you took the quote from: good news, king james, etc.

The hipocricy is in the "Christians"... the ones that are eager to kill other people and still call them selves Christians.


Nice try.

The Commandment, from the Hebrew text is "Thou shalt not murder". Ratsah, not harag.

yet... for centuries... the "Christian" Catholics supressed scientific discoveries because they were contrary to their beliefs...
Such as the absurd belief that the Earth was the center of the universe and the sun and stars revolved around it.

Do religions still try to supress scientific research - yep.
How about STEM CELL research which may actually help find a cure for paralysis, and alzheimers.

Religions are more than just beliefs... it breds Kooks, radicals, fanatics.... such as suicide bombers willing to die for Allah.

Really... because  in my book it says "Thou shalt not kill"

What's the difference between murder and kill?

And who decides the difference?

And let's get this straight... Jesus is ok with Killing... just not Murder right?

So turn the other cheek and love thy enemy.... can also be arbitrarily applied... just like "thou shalt not kill"...


Except... when the government says it's ok... for example... when Sadam says it's ok to kill someone... or GWB says it's ok to kill the muslims...

In those cases... it's not murder... right? It's just killing... which isn't murder.... because after alll God's behind it. so it's ok.

And the guy that's dying... Ahkmed... who was forced into an Iraqi uniform at gun point... who probably doesn't support Sadam... who has nothing to do with the Baath party...just at the wrong place at the wrong time... just trying to stay alive.

He get's "Killed"... it's ok... because our country is Christian and his is Muslem... and his leader was evil.

I love how Christians can rationalize killing other human beings.... and still call them selves Christians.

Not the member's houses, but their parents, brothers, uncles, sisters... etc. Guilt by association.... no due process either.

They grab land that isn't legally theirs by settling on it and building security fences around it.

They imprison people without due process... with out filing charges against them, with out giving them access to counsel.

They impoverish an entire culture and people to the point that they have no other way to fight back except to sacrifice their own lifes through suicide bombing.

They desercrate holy sites and monuments.

I don't think the Israelis are innocents here.

And I wonder why so many people have hated them, for so many thousands of years.


Just so I am clear on this.....

Americans can fight a war on terror but Israelis are not allowed to?  You need to check your history a bit my friend and investigate a little bit more some of the root causes of the Arab/Israeli conflict.

As to the hating of Jews for thousands of years, the State of Israel was created in 1947.  Even if your right in saying that people hate Jews because the State of Israel exercises its right to self preservation, that only accounts for the last 56 years.


And the whole imprisonment without due process thing...Israel must have learned that from the Americans....except the Israelis have no Gitmo to call their own.

There were several UN resolutions one in 1947 which partitioned the land. But officially Israel became a nation in May of 1948. http://www.mfa.gov.il/mfa/go.asp?MFAH00hb0

I knew that before I had to look it up - you ought to check you history of Israel as well.

let me refer you to the following link which talks about Jewish group which were illegally taking land from the Palestinians during 1947.

http://www.trumanlibrary.org/whistlestop/study_collections/israel/large/1947.htm

http://www.palestinemonitor.org/factsheet/History_June2002.htm

http://www.palestinefacts.org/pf_mandate_oppose_immigration.php

Isarael has every right to fight a war on terrorist... however, the Jews took that land from the Palestinians by acts of terrorism.. such as car bombs, pipe bombs, home made machine guns....

In other words... through violence.

The Bristish stepped out of the conflict, and the UN stepped in to broker the peace.

Ever since Israel has been illegally grabbing land from the Arabs.

The UN has been attempting to pass resolution after resolution to sanction Israel against their settlements in internationally recognized Palestinian settlements... and the US vetos these resolutions... the US should have a dog collar around it's next and the leash leads to its Israel handlers.

Israel is annexing land which is not theres..

So are the Palestinians terrorists? yes now many of them have become this...

they have the best lands taken from them (not unlike the American Indian saga), they ahve been impoverished, been made 3rd class citizens, and have been pushed into a corner by the Israelis...

The Palestinians are  a desparate people... because the israelis made them this way...

At some time the violence must stop both sides are guilty of terrorism and inhumane acts.

The side that has the greatest obligation to stop is the side with the greatest might - that would be Israelis. Not only should they stop the physical violence but also the land grab which is a different form of agression.

Remember the bible also says an eye-for-an-eye.... sort of in contrast with the turn-the-other-cheek teaching...


Only seems in contrast to those who haven't studied the Bible.
