shameem,
Your entire post is ridiculous. <b>Prove</b> to me where I LIED about something. For EVERYTHING I say, I am always willing to provide the source of my information. Simply because *YOU* are not aware of something does not mean that I am a liar. Perhaps I have studied your religion more than you have.
And insulting my faith will do you no good. There are many, many people who say the same things about Islam - that it is nothing more than a hodge-podge of stories borrowed from fables and make-believe, even incorporating some pagan practices and beliefs. But instead of coming here spouting those kinds of rude comments, I came asking questions. That's it. But people like you seem to have nothing better to do than spit out the same nasty statements about Christians and Jews that people say about Islam.
As for "walking the walk" just because you pray and fast means nothing. So do Christians. So do Jews. So do Hindus and Buddhists and Bahai. That alone is nothing unique at all.
There is no "license to sin" for Christians. For the Bible teaches that our actions WILL be judged and we will be rewarded or punished based upon our actions AS WELL AS our motives behind them. So, it seems that you are the one spreading the falsehoods here.
Also, please don't go there about what some so-called "Christian nations" have done, because anyone could easily point out what Muslim people have done throughout history, since the beginning actually, to hurt or kill non-Muslims. These bad people who pervert the faith are not to be taken as representatives OF the faith, unless their actions are in accord with their religion's teachings.
Would you say that I can look at Osama bin Ladin and Sadaam Hussein and the 19 killers who hit the World Trade Cetner as examples of Muslims and then make a judgment call about the whole religion based upon these deceived individuals? If not, then you should "slow-your-row" when talking about other's religions.
It's also stupid to bring up the "white man's religion". That is one of the oldest bits of nonsense in the book. Any person today who would believe that Jesus was a white-skinned man is someone who is simply ignorant - not knowing the facts. The whole Bible is centered around the JEWISH nation, so for anyone to think that Jesus looked like a European is just silly.
People are much smarter than you are giving them credit for.
It sounds like you're spouting off a lot of rhetoric and garbage that's just being thrown out there by people who have nothing better to do with their time than make up baseless claims about others and insult other's faith.
For individuals such as yourself, I have no time.
Good-bye.
