The "negative" images of Islam portray the rotten organisation just as it is: cruel and ignorant, not belonging any where near civilization and enlightenment; locked for all time in the 7th Century.

'however man was created with many weaknesses, forgetfulness, greed for material comforts and power, is capable of oppressiveness and ignorance, is rash and impatient, stringy and miserably, ungrateful, quarrelsome, ruthless, and full of self-interest, which can easily lead him astray.'

no Murray man is born with an Adamic nature. God created no failures. He was not created the way you describe it. Also the more committed to Islam the more violent, hateful and vengeful one becomes as he/she becomes like the god they worship. The fruit of Islam is rotten to the core just like secularism/feminism. Try looking to the God of love, mercy forgiveness and kindness. He is only found in Jesus Christ.

ttbn, correct, this article written by https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peace_for_our_time https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neville_Chamberlain is 100% wrong.

runner, correct again, 1 The proverbs of Solomon son of David, king of Israel: 2 for attaining wisdom and discipline; for understanding words of insight; 3 for acquiring a disciplined and prudent life, doing what is right and just and fair; 4 for giving prudence to the simple, knowledge and discretion to the young-- 5 let the wise listen and add to their learning, and let the discerning get guidance-- 6 for understanding proverbs and parables, the sayings and riddles of the wise. 7 The love & honour of your heavenly father is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and discipline.

EMBRACE WISDOM & REJECT EVIL TEMPTATIONS
Listen, my son, to your father's instruction and do not forsake your mother's teaching. 9 They will be a garland to grace your head and a chain to adorn your neck. 10 My son, if sinners entice you, do not give in to them. 11 If they say, "Come along with us; let's lie in wait for someone's blood, let's waylay some harmless soul; 12 let's swallow them alive, like the grave, and whole, like those who go down to the pit; 13 we will get all sorts of valuable things and fill our houses with plunder; 14 throw in your lot with us, and we will share a common purse"-- 15 my son, do not go along with them, do not set foot on their paths; 16 for their feet rush into sin, they are swift to shed blood. 17 How useless to spread a net in full view of all the birds! 18 These men lie in wait for their own blood; they waylay only themselves! 19 Such is the end of all who go after ill-gotten gain; it takes away the lives of those who get it.

does it get any better than that?

Bringing Muslims back to Islam. Muslims exhibit a more united front than do Christians IMO.
I see Christianity as devouring itself by a lowering of moral code of life, a theme which this article followed, in relation to Muslims themselves. Maybe this author could offer some sobering advice to Christians, especially in relation to economic plunder of that which does not belong, EG Middle Eastern oil fields....

Diver Dan,

I agree. Many Christians have lost the plot, but they are still not wanting to slaughter everyone who doesn't agree with them, as per Islam. Weak as it is, Christianity is too weak to combat Islam. But, how could a religion that prizes a 'god of love' who touts ' turning the other cheek', ever deal with Islam, which is not a mere religion, but also a murderous social doctrine which deals in death to meet its ends. The Sword, that Islam is so fond of, is the only way to go; no 'puny' religion preaching peace and love can deal with such a monster.

All majority Muslim societies have far more crime, poverty, degeneracy, corruption and dysfunction than any other type of social organisation.
Anyone who undertakes advocacy on behalf of this retarded system of living should be laughed at and bullied into silence.
