Dealing with muslims

Scalerman,

Not being nasty or funny or anything. Y'all can try converting muslims or trying to change the terrorists point of view. But I won't. These last are the zealots of their religion and cannot be changed or converted. They even kill the people of their own religion...against the Koran's teaching. Do you know where the word assassin comes from?? And what the word means? Religion has so little to do with getting into paradise...and a whole lot to do with controlling people to do someone else's bidding to get there. I mean, You didn't see Osama bin Laden strapping a bomb on and being a true believer, did you? He got kids and young men to do that dirty deed! I have no dislike towards the Muslim religion or it's people!! The reason so many of the Muslim factions dislike(hate) christians has an awful lot to do with the enmity started before and during what Europeans called the Crusades. How do you change ingrained feelings of people that has been pounded into their heads for over 1000 yrs. Preach the christian religion to them for another 1000?? Oh...and they hate us also because we support the Jews and the Jewish state. Which is something I am not so sure we should be doing!!

Quoting" It's not about one groups' truth versus anothers' it is about THE TRUTH. The sooner we all realize that the better."

Somewhat simplistic thing to say. Your(and my) truths are completely at odds with those people's TRUTH. They simply do NOT believe what you do! That is what so many christians(and other religions) do not understand. The sooner you realize that the better!
