Is Christianity a Religion of Peace?

Whenever we attempt to discuss terrorist attacks committed in accordance with the commands of the Qur'an and Hadith, someone is sure to say, "Well, what about the Crusades?" But this response is only relevant if violence committed in the name of Christianity is actually commanded by Christianity. Are Christians ever commanded to commit violence?

David, love this video. I think it's an important one.

Here is something I'd like to share from another website that I think Alicia (who was commenting on other posts) recommended.

Jesus healed the lame so they could walk:

Matthew 21:14 And the blind and the lame came to him in the temple; and he healed them.

Muhammad brought lameness to the walking:

Bukhari V4 B52 #261 "...they were brought, and he had their hands and feet cut off." (video)

Jesus brought sight to the blind:

Matthew 15:30 And great multitudes came unto him, having with them [those that were] lame, blind, dumb, maimed, and many others, and cast them down at Jesus' feet; and he healed them:

Muhammad brought blindness to the seeing:

Bukhari V4 B52 #261 "Then he ordered for nails which were heated and passed over their eyes, and they were left in the Harra (i.e. rocky land in Medina)."

Jesus was crucified:

Matthew 27:35 And they crucified him, and parted his garments, casting lots: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, They parted my garments among them, and upon my vesture did they cast lots.

Muhammad crucified:

Quran 7:124 "Surely I shall have your hands and feet cut off upon alternate sides. Then I shall crucify you every one."

Jesus brought the dead back to life:

John 12:17 The people therefore that was with him when he called Lazarus out of his grave, and raised him from the dead, bare record.

Mohammed mass murdered the living:

Qur'an Surah 33:26 Allah took down the People of the Scripture Book. He cast terror into their hearts. Some you slew, and some you made prisoners. And He made you heirs of their lands, their houses, and their goods, giving you a land which you had not traversed before. And Allah has power over all things.

Tabari VIII:38 "The Messenger of Allah commanded that all of the Jewish men and boys who had reached puberty should be beheaded. Then the Prophet divided the wealth, wives, and children of the Banu Qurayza Jews among the Muslims."

Abu Dawud 38:4390 Narrated Atiyyah al-Qurazi: I was among the captives of Banu Qurayza. They (the Companions) examined us, and those who had begun to grow hair (pubes) were killed, and those who had not were not killed. I was among those who had not grown hair.

Tabari VIII:35/Ishaq:464 "The Jews were made to come down, and Allah's Messenger imprisoned them. Then the Prophet went out into the marketplace of Medina (it is still its marketplace today), and he had trenches dug in it. He sent for the Jewish men and had them beheaded in those trenches. They were brought out to him in batches. They numbered 800 to 900 boys and men."

Tabari VIII:40 "The Messenger of God commanded that furrows should be dug in the ground for the Qurayza. Then he sat down. Ali and Zubayr began cutting off their heads in his presence."

Ishaq:465 "Then the Apostle divided the property, wives, and children of the Qurayza among the Muslims. Allah's Messenger took his fifth of the booty. He made known on that day the extra shares for horses and their riders - giving the horse two shares and the rider one. A Muslim without a horse got one share of the spoil. It was the first booty in which lots were cast."

Ishaq:480 "The Qurayza met their misfortune. In humiliation they found no helper. A calamity worse than that which fell upon the Nadir befell them. On that day Allah's Apostle came to them like a brilliant moon. We left them with blood upon them like a pool. They lay prostrate with the vultures circling round."

Ishaq:204/ Tabari VI:134 "'Men of the Khazraj, do you know what you are pledging yourselves to in swearing allegiance to this man.' 'Yes,' they answered. 'In swearing allegiance to him we are pledging ourselves to wage war against all mankind.'"

Ishaq:472 "Muhammad's Companions are the best in war."

Ishaq:475 "Allah commanded that horses should be kept for His enemy in the fight so they might vex them. We obeyed our Prophet's orders when he called us to war. When he called for violent efforts we made them. The Prophet's command is obeyed for he is truly believed. He will give us victory, glory, and a life of ease. Those who call Muhammad a liar disbelieve and go astray. They attacked our religion and would not submit."

On All 4 Major Religions:
- Christianity is peaceful!
- Hinduism is peaceful!
- Buddhism is peaceful!

- Islam is the only violent and supremacist religion today! Since 2001, they have carried over 24,500 Terror Attacks over the world!

Sue Islam instead of complaining!
Islam and its institutions threaten our Constitution and Democracy.
Islam threatens nearly all our standards, if not all. It threatens our inalienable rights, especially the inalienable rights of women.

Islam has misrepresented itself as a religion for financial advantage and status.
Under the Constitution there is an assumption of “One Nation Under God”. The nature of God is explained in various documents and in various references by the Founding Fathers and Presidents. It is not a loose, amorphous definition.
Our God is a God who demands a set of ethics based on the Ten Commandments. Alternatively, our ethics are contrary to the values of Islam.
Specifically, a religion needs to have values that are consistent with the notion of morality, decency and equality for all.
The Koran, the teachings and the fruits of Islam are objectionable to our culture or laws. Alternatively, democratic values should not include the acceptance of the seeds of its own destruction. Islam seeks to destroy democracy and supplant it with theocracy. Democracy seeks to separate a government from religions. Islam seeks to destroy all religions except Islam and merge Islam with Government.
