I know that a lot of evil has been committed in the name of religion, the Christians are guilty, especially during the Crusades, and the Catholics during the Spanish Inquisition, the IRA is another that has committed attrocities. Acts of terror in the name of Islam top all. There are far too many quotes in the Koran regarding the slaying of the infidel. Sura 9:5- But when the forbidden months are past, then fight and slay the Pagans wherever ye find them, and seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them in every stratagem (of war); -Sura's 8:39, 9:5, 9:29: 47:4 in the Muslim Qur'an are 'divine' commandments to persecute Jews and Christians, to defeat them in battle and then to consign them either to slavery or to death. Sura 5:51; 9:5 - "Take not the Jews and Christians as friends....Slay the idolaters wherever ye find them.....Fight against such....as believe not in Allah." According to Ayatollah Khomeini, an Iranian : "Killing is a form of mercy because it rectifies the person. Sometimes a person cannot be reformed unless he is cut up and burned. You must kill, burn, and lock up those in opposition." http://bibleprobe.com/muhammad.htm- An interesting history of the Koran. A lot of it is shocking. Peaceful religion my ass.
