There's no violence in the Christian bible? Christians are for homosexuals?
Then go find all of the beheadings, bombings, acid-throwing and related sorts of violent acts taking place today by Christians in the name of Jesus and start your own thread, instead of hijacking this one.
If you're actually asking about events in the Old Testament and what their history/meaning was at the time (which I doubt) you can go to the religion forum.

I wasn't thread-jacking, I was responding to a specific post that compared Christianity to Islam.
I don't think Islam itself promotes beheadings. I think extremists pervert Islam but don't represent it. There are millions and millions of Muslims who don't behead anyone, and they probably hate the extremists even more than we do.
The Catholic Church welcomed pagans and also allowed them to bring some of their ways and rituals to the body of Christ. Then many other Christians followed suit, mainly those people either were not allowed to read the Bible or couldn't read the Bible to find the truth about killing. Governments are more involved in promoting lynchings and witch burning.......not Christians.
I'll explain the difference. Islam is based on violence and hatred. Their prophet was a prolific murderer himself, he bragged about beheading 700 Jews. Orthodox Islam teaches to convert or kill your neighbor.
The peaceful Muslim congregations are existing OUTSIDE the teachings of Orthodox Islam.
Christianity is based on love your neighbor, forgive your enemies. Do onto others as you would have them do onto you.
Violent Christians exist outside of Orthodox Christian teachings.
See the difference?
Do yourself a favor, stop posting about Islam until you actually learn something about the religion.
You're embarrassing yourself.
I am a Muslim. Are you telling me that I don't understand my own religion?
The religion that I converted to a little more than 10 years ago?
Tell me: How is it that you understand more about my religion than I do?

Then there are very few christians around, because all I see from "christians" around here is hate, name calling, judgement, and persecution.
read the Koran sweetie. Kill the infedels including homosexuals. yeah real peaceful.
I am a Muslim.
I read Qur'an you obviously do not.
I study Qur'an, you obviously do not.
I memorize Qur'an, you obviously do not.
So, what makes you an authority on Qur'an? NOTHING!!
In Christianity isn't it a sin to bear false witness against your neighbor?
