Defending Islam's Reputation
First off, I am athiest, but I find it interesting reading about other religions and their beliefs.
Some of my friends are muslims, and I can tell you that Islam is FAR more understandable and peaceful than Christianity.
I've read some of the Quran, and I even own one, and have read some of the Bible when I go to hotels when I'm bored (which hotel doesn't have a bible in their drawer these days?).
To all you blind christians claiming Islam is the "work of the devil" or that the Quran is full of violence and hatred, read the Quran first before you go off stereotyping a whole religion, just because of suicide bombers and terrorists. George Bush and Hitler were/are horrible Christian men (yes Hitler was christian, read something OTHER than what that American school textbooks say), but I don't go off claiming that all christians are genocidal lunatics that want to police the world, and that the Bible teaches them to do those things.
Look at Christianity, if it isn't the most corrupt, sickest religion on this planet, please tell me which religion is. And I'm not saying that the Bible itself is corrupt or sick, its all the Christians themselves who are.
Don't go off bashing other religions, when yours is basically a failure to begin with.
