So can we say then that Judaism is Religion ver. 1.0 and Christianity is ver 1.1? So why couldn't we say that Islam is ver 1.3? Who are we to pick and chose which religion is the right one?

Please understand that non of these religions mean anything to me as I do not believe in anything, I'm just wondering why when reading some of the replies it seems like Christians will justify in any way possible why it is THE religion of God, I'm sure if there are any Jewish or Muslim forumers here they will justify why their religion is the one...

because Islam doesnt fulfill anything, rather it rewrites it and turns it from a loving, caring God to an angry, harsh God. when reading Islamic law you'll notice that crimes are often blown way out of proportion and the punishment is ridiculously harsh. according to Islam, denying that it is to be the religion of the whole world and every man, woman, and child alive is deserving of death.
Judaism and CHristianity teach love and respect, Islam teaches hate and anger (from what i know of it)

i hope i didnt offend anyone, but if i did, keep it to yourself and dont start a flame war... please. however, if you notice a mistake or misunderstanding in my post feel free to correct it in a non-hostile way.

I'm not here to give lessons about religions, but your understanding of Islam is completely wrong. Just cause a few Muslim fanatics preach hate it does not mean that the religion teaches hate and anger, it is actually the opposite, it teaches peace.

Non of the religions, as far as I know, preach hate, once again it is Man who interprets whatever is written in these holy books to suit their needs, be it peace, hate, or even war.

Who are we to pick and chose which religion is the right one?
if you are shown a tree, a rock, and a pile of dirt, then were asked which one is the tree I'm guessing you would pick the tree. In this example Judaism/Christianity is obviously the tree, roots to top. Please don't be influenced by those who would tell you that a rock or pile of dirt is a tree. You can be kind to them and respectful because Judaism/Christianity teaches to treat others as we want to be treated. Stay faithful and you will be OK.

To avoid offending anyone I think we should limit this discussion to whether you believe in God or don't, if we start comparing religions it could get ugly

thats it, im offended.

So you don't believe in the sixth pillar in Islam? The reason so manny murder others by wearing bombs.


Quran 47:4"
So, when you clash with the unbelieving Infidels in battle fighting Jihad in Allah's Cause, smite their necks until you overpower them, killing and wounding many of them. At length, when you have thoroughly subdued them, bind them firmly, making them captives. Thereafter either generosity or ransom them based upon what benefits Islam until the war lays down its burdens. Thus are you commanded by Allah to continue carrying out Jihad against the unbelieving infidels until they submit to Islam.

No I don't believe in the 6th, 7th, 8th or any number of pillars... again, the focus in this thread should be on whether you believe in God or not.

Since I'm not a believer my 335 or any of my gear are immune to any curses it will continue to play amazing Blues tones and there aint nothing you can do about it
