Pakistan: Two Christians severely beaten for refusing to convert to Islam - Jihad Watch

Quote:
“The Muslims got out of the car armed with iron rods and attacked Ishfaq and Naeem, shouting that they should either recite the Kalma(Islamic conversion creed) or be prepared to die,” Liaqat Munawar said.

He said the Pashtuns severely beat the two Christians, fracturing Ishfaq Munawar’s jaw and breaking five teeth, and seriously injuring Masih. He added that the two Christians fell unconscious, and the young Muslim men left assuming they had killed them.
More tolerance form the religion of pieces.

This just in: Pakistan is partly populated by uneducated intolerant tribal barbarians.

Also in the news, the sun rose in the East this morning.

The Muslims are just trying to give the Christians peace, by killing them. Isn't peace the natural conclusion of death?

It is about time for this loving god to show up and tell us, once for all, which of the 1000s of the religions is really true.

They're all both true and false at the same time.

For some reason, this really pisses off Baptists.

I have many fine examples from the Jewish Torah where the Jews killed innocent people because of their Jewish faith. I am not condoning killing someone based on religion, murder is murder to me, but lets don't believe that Islam has the market cornered on extremism.

Comment

Such words helped give justification to mediaeval Crusaders who slaughtered men, women and children along their way to Jerusalem and stole the spoils of the cities. Even today, many Christian military men use Scripture to justify their actions. If any soldier harbors doubt about killing his fellow humans, he need only consult a military chaplain or read the Bible to calm their worries. Even George Bush (the First), with Billy Graham beside him, proclaimed the Gulf War as "moral." George Bush (the Second) continued in his father's steps by killing thousands of Iraqi civilians in the Iraqi war. Such moral wars result in thousands of "utterly destroyed" innocent men, women and children.;
(For a few more examples [but not all] see also Deuteronomy 3:3, 7:2, 20:16-17 , 25:19; Joshua 6:21, 8:26, 10-28-40; Numbers 31:17-18; I Samuel 15:3; Isaiah 13:16; and Hosea 13:16)

We're talking about actions, not words.

Oh I see. You don't believe the Torah is historically accurate. There are a lot of conservative Jews who see it differently.
