Compare the life of Jesus to the life of Muhammad and ask yourself: which of the two advocated peace, forgiveness, and nonviolence?

(Or, put another way, which engaged directly in warfare himself and which turned the other cheek?)

I'm really not certain what is so hard for people to understand about this.

A "religion of peace" is not one founded by a savage.

There can be little doubt that someone who converts from Islam in a country like Somalia is one serious person. If this sort of behavior ever makes it to the USA, the percentage who claim to be Christian will certainly diminish.

It is not safe for Muslims to convert to Christianity anywhere. In my own country, Canada, they dare not declare their conversion for fear of persecution or worse by their families, Imams and mosques. Islam is uncivilized and I am sick of reading about all the crimes committed against free people in the name of Islam.

When I read these stories, I always think of those enlightened folks with that idiotic "Coexist" bumper sticker.

Ah, the 'religion of peace.' And this in the same week that about 200 of those Libyan 'rebel heroes' (John McCain's words) hung one of the captured loyalist soldiers (a black man, perhaps a draftee) upside down in the public square in 'free' Benghazi and publicly butchered him like a goat.

When (if ever) will anyone in the Administration or in any of our mainline churches speak out against these Muslim atrocities, mostly against the innocent? To say that many of us are losing faith in our institutions would be the understatement of the decade.
