Re: I need some help w/ Islam

My nieghbors are muslim and we've talked about this kind of thing since Sept 11th--what we cmae up with is that you can twist the bible, koran, whatever...to fit whatever twisted purpose you have--it's sad that something that is suppose to get you closer to God can be used to justify hurting others. My neighbors aren't strict practicing Muslims, but the grandpa has done lts of studying of religions around the world as well as Islam (his religion) so we have had quite a few philosphical discussions about religions and beliefs. I guess as far as Islam being a very bloody religion, I guess the same could be said about Christianity--the crusades for instance (I'm sure there are more examples out there and even in the Bible). I am Christian so please no bashing me for saying that. I wish there could be peace in the world and people to stop hurting and killing each other in the name of religion--I'm sure that's not what God intended us to do.
