I believe you're mistaken. You quoted Fitnuts' post, not mine.Oh, I'm sorry; that was actually a MUSLIM child they didn't mind slaughtering.
I'm sure you realize that using the actions of some Muslims to draw conclusions about the entire religion is illogical.
You're the one who said to show an example of innocent non-muslims.
I did.
Kindly forgive. Direct my comments towards that poster then.
"Fitnuts". How funny is that? Good job.

The Qur'an is open to interpretation, and you've clearly convinced yourself that yours is correct to the exclusion of all others. Because it's open to interpretation, nothing will be "unequivocal."
All muslims are rapists and murderers, it says so in the coran.
The problem with his interpretation is it does not explain the actions of self professed muslims who are committing acts that the west has classified as "terrorism" .* * * *

Yes. It certainly is. And because it is, your interpretation is no more likely to be good or true or valid or useful than the interpretation of almost anybody else who interprets it in a different way, provided that he is being honest in his efforts.

These "terrorist" point to the Quran as justification for their actions .
His interpretation leaves us with an Islam comprised of meaningless acts of submission without the conquest component that is part and parcel of Islam.
Noble Quran 2:190 Footnote: Jihad is holy fighting in Allahs Cause with full force of numbers and weaponry. It is given the utmost importance in Islam and is one of its pillars. By Jihad Islam is established, Allahs Word is made superior (which means only Allah has the right to be worshiped), and Islam is propagated. By abandoning Jihad Islam is destroyed and Muslims fall into an inferior position; their honor is lost, their lands are stolen, their rule and authority vanish. Jihad is an obligatory duty in Islam on every Muslim. He who tries to escape from this duty, or does not fulfill this duty, dies as a hypocrite.

That's a pretty crappy footnote. Considering there is 5 pillars and Jihad is not one of them. Neither the greater, nor the lesser.
Islam - Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaJihad
Main articles: Jihad and Islamic military jurisprudence
Jihad means "to strive or struggle" (in the way of God) and is considered the "Sixth Pillar of Islam" by a minority of Sunni Muslim authorities.[58] Jihad, in its broadest sense, is classically defined as "exerting one's utmost power, efforts, endeavors, or ability in contending with an object of disapprobation." Depending on the object being a visible enemy, the devil, and aspects of one's own self, different categories of Jihad are defined.[59] Jihad, when used without any qualifier, is understood in its military aspect.[60][61]
There are only 5 pillars of Islam. Period
I have NEVER heard any muslim or Imam in any mosque state that there is a 6th

Sorry but there's only 5 pillars. Apparently the Muslim world doesn't refer to "Icky Wiki" for their jurisprudence.
Besides....it says a minority. A minority of people fuck goats too. I don't happen to be one of them. You may now declare your innocence.

The Qur'an does not specifically state that there are ANY "pillars." So if you admit of (acknowledge) only FIVE of them, that's fine. But since the Qur'an doesn't explicitly mention ANY pillars, the number "five" is yet another mere "interpretation" and the MINORITY is as entitled to find a SIXTH pillar as your majority is to find only FIVE.
