Jesus was the founder of the Church, not Peter! Jesus made Peter the head of this church and his vicar on earth. When the Holy Spirit descended on the Apostles at Pentecost they were filled with grace and given the power to accomplish their mission of establishing the church and making disciples of all the nations.
Ok, head of the Church then. Either way Peter, Paul, and others werenāt exactly always saints.
JMuslims are the ones that claim that Muhammad was a āmercy to all mankindā and the ābest of creationā. How do you know that that āgossipā as you call it was not true.
How do you know Jesus isnāt boiling in excrement in hell like some Jews believe the Talmud says? Every prophet has his slanderers.
Why do you say āChristiansā as if it was their Christianity that made them do these things? Instead of saying that there was an Arabic invasion of the Byzantine world, a Turkish invasion of Eastern Europe and a Moorish invasion of Spain, we should say it was Muslims that invaded the Byzantine world, it was Muslims that invaded Eastern Europe and it was Muslims that invaded Spain.
Manifest Destiny of oppressing Native Americans was based squarely on the idea that God wanted Christians to create the New Israel in America, and that the Native Americans were the new Canaanites. So Christians have twisted the Bible and used the name of God to justify all kinds of filth, they have been no better than Muslims.
Islam put over a million Europeans into slavery and it was Muslims who rounded up the blacks to sell them to the white slave traders. White women were the most prized slaves in Mecca. It was not āChristianityā that deprived Native Americans of their lands and freedom, it was a more advanced technology that did it.
Sureā¦on one hand Christians insist this is a Christian nation founded on Christianity, yet when the time comes to accept blame for Americaās sins, it swears it wasnāt the Christians. Same with Hitler and the Holocaust. Letās be honest, it has always been the Christians behind all the sins of the west for a long time now.
About the Bible, the Church was afraid of what has actually happened, everybody interpreting Scriptures their own way.
Or maybe that it would no longer have sole ownership of Jesus to use as a weapon against its enemies.
Yes, we have had priests that molested children and the church is dealing with them.
Yeah, finally.
When has Islam ever treated the unbelievers as equals? Isnāt it true that a Muslim should not lie, cheat, kill or steal from other Muslims, but a Muslim may lie, deceive or kill an unbeliever if it advances Islam?
No more than you can justify modern imitation of what Moses and Joshua did in the Bible to advance the God of Israel through Canaan, killing everyone except for the little girls to keep for themselves and things like that.
What Mohammed did is comparable, to cement belief in God among Arabs to fulfill Ishmaelās promise of a Great Nation like Isaac has through Moses, David, and then Jesus.
Now all thatās over. But not really, Christians and Muslims will still both claim Jesus is Messiah, but still fight until the end, with Jews right in the middle of it. Thatās the plan. So like I said I really donāt care about defending anyone. Iām the first to say many Muslims are as blind or even more than the Christians.
So thatās about it on that.
