I have to ask, because honestly, I haven't been here long enough to have gleaned it on my own.....
What's your position on gun control?
I oppose gun control. I actually have been thinking about a new 9m. Is that answer enough for ya?
If money is no object, get a Sig.
If you want a $500 gun, get the Springfield, and you can never go wrong with the Beretta 92.
And for a $400 gun, the new Ruger is nice.
If you're going cheap, just get a rock
finally, a honest man.Is The Bible More Violent Than The Quran?
Given this violent legacy, religion historian Philip Jenkins decided to compare the brutality quotient of the Quran and the Bible.
Defense Vs. Total Annihilation
"Much to my surprise, the Islamic scriptures in the Quran were actually far less bloody and less violent than those in the Bible," Jenkins says.
Jenkins is a professor at Penn State University and author of two books dealing with the issue: the recently published Jesus Wars, and Dark Passages , which has not been published but is already drawing controversy.
Much to my surprise, the Islamic scriptures in the Quran were actually far less bloody and less violent than those in the Bible.
- Philip Jenkins, author of 'Jesus Wars'
Violence in the Quran, he and others say, is largely a defense against attack.
"By the standards of the time, which is the 7th century A.D., the laws of war that are laid down by the Quran are actually reasonably humane," he says. "Then we turn to the Bible, and we actually find something that is for many people a real surprise. There is a specific kind of warfare laid down in the Bible which we can only call genocide."
It is called herem, and it means total annihilation. Consider the Book of 1 Samuel, when God instructs King Saul to attack the Amalekites: "And utterly destroy all that they have, and do not spare them," God says through the prophet Samuel. "But kill both man and woman, infant and nursing child, ox and sheep, camel and donkey."

Now find in the NEW TESTAMENT any such violence. You are aware that with the New Testament the bible totally changes and God ceases to seek annihilation of his enemies? RIGHT?

The scholar clearly stated that the koran call for "defensive behavior";
hence why propagandist show defensive behavior" as violence?
should self-defence be banned in religion?
what a logic?
so because 0.0001 of followers are using violence, a religion should be banned!!!!
Again in my opinion, all religion should be banned.

Jesus informs us in several places that the old Moses laws no longer apply that we have only to love our neighbor , learn to forgive and to follow only 4 of the old laws.
Now I repeat show us in the New testament where God has ordered any killings or attacks. Or admit that you are full of shit.

I can answer that God never created human being to be killed by another human being ,

Yes, the Bible is a lot more violent than the Koran, which is why we are all worried about offending all those radical fundamentalist Jews and Christians, and are free to mock Muhammad and burn Korans.
Why are you afraid of Muslims?
Especially Keynesianismwhat a logic?
so because 0.0001 of followers are using violence, a religion should be banned!!!!

Those fucking Keynesians run all the banks and have destroyed the economy and nation for their own purposes.

A major poll recently showed that 78% of Muslims living in the US think suicide bombings are never justified. That means that 22%, not 0.0001%, have no problem justifying killing themselves to kill anyone who offends them.

Should muslims in Afghanistan get guns to protect themselves from Nato and christian armies?
