Suffer Not The Heretic To Live

I don't get it.
What is in that book?
What is in your mind that makes you think,
that if you blow yourself up,
and kill infidels, as you call us,
you will be rewarded with virgin women?

What kind of God demands
the blood of babies and soldiers?
What God orders you to
destroy all others without your faith?

For as I have heard countless times, in different words,
you say,
"Suffer not the heretic to live"

But I've got plenty of living left to do.

I don't understand the mindset of the Muslim extremist.

I don't really understand what you mean, but thanks for replying.

If you could explain, that'd help.

Peace,

The kind of god they worship is one that divides and subtracts. The God I worship is one that adds and multiplies. Joy, Peace, Love, friendship, etc.

The Muslims are blinded by the god of the underworld. Their hatred knows no bounds...they are acting like one would who follows Satan. You know a tree by its fruit. The fruit of the Muslim extremist is not from the God of above tree.

Nice of you to drop by the blog!

If you care to go back far enough, you'll see my some of my more religious articles.
