The Koran is quite clear that it is the supreme religion in the world, and that jews and christians are inferior, and hide the truth of God..That they must be subdued and admit islams dominance....
Islam is the only religion that specifically denies other religions.. it denies jesus is the Son of God, it denies salvation of men..
But get this.. it says that salvation is only garranteed after death in battle.. Yet no savior came to save them... This is a perfect satanic religion.. breeding men to yearn for battle and death..
If islam is the final revelation meant to clarify both judiasm and christianity.. why does it not add anything to these faiths?
"Show me just what Muhammad brought that was new and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached."
Absolutely.. there is nothing in islam new accept details in how he took sex slaves and concubines.. how he conquered and how he punished... about he treated his numerous wives... rather disgusting shit as well..

" I am the first and I am the last, And there is no God besides Me." Isaiah 44:6
The Bible is quite clear that it's lack of tolerance for other religions is quite supreme also. You focus on the explicit literal writings contained in the Koran; why then do you not focus on the same literal writings in The Bible?
Let's look at some passages in The Bible where it not only justifies the slaughter of non-Christians, but calls for it:
Exodus 32:26-28: " Then Moses stood in the gate of the camp, and said, Who is on the LORD's side? let him come unto me. And all the sons of Levi gathered themselves together unto him. And he said unto them, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, Put every man his sword by his side, and go in and out from gate to gate throughout the camp, and slay every man his brother, and every man his companion, and every man his neighbour. And the children of Levi did according to the word of Moses: and there fell of the people that day about three thousand men."
Numbers 25:1-9: " And Israel abode in Shittim, and the people began to commit whoredom with the daughters of Moab. And they called the people unto the sacrifices of their gods: and the people did eat, and bowed down to their gods...And the LORD said unto Moses, Take all the heads of the people, and hang them up before the LORD against the sun...And, behold, one of the children of Israel came and brought unto his brethren a Midianitish woman in the sight of Moses, and in the sight of all the congregation...And when Phinehas...saw it, he rose up...and took a javelin in his hand...and thrust both of them through...So the plague was stayed from the children of Israel. And those that died in the plague were twenty and four thousand."
1 Kings 18:17-40: " And it came to pass, when Ahab saw Elijah, that Ahab said unto him, Art thou he that troubleth Israel? And he answered, I have not troubled Israel; but thou, and thy father's house, in that ye have forsaken the commandments of the LORD, and thou hast followed Baalim. Now therefore send, and gather to me all Israel unto mount Carmel, and the prophets of Baal four hundred and fifty, and the prophets of the groves four hundred, which eat at Jezebel's table...And call ye on the name of your gods, and I will call on the name of the LORD: and the God that answereth by fire, let him be God. And all the people answered and said, It is well spoken...Then the fire of the LORD fell, and consumed the burnt sacrifice, and the wood, and the stones, and the dust, and licked up the water that was in the trench. And when all the people saw it, they fell on their faces: and they said, The LORD, he is the God; the LORD, he is the God. And Elijah said unto them, Take the prophets of Baal; let not one of them escape. And they took them: and Elijah brought them down to the brook Kishon, and slew them there."
I appreciate Ted that you are a Christian, but do not for one moment suggest that your religious belief is somehow superior to another's. ALL religion is flawed - whether it be Hindu, Muslim, Jewish, Christian, Buddhism, etc. You focus on some extraneous passages of the Koran, yet you also ignore similar such passages in The Bible. You need to apply the same standard to the Koran that you apply to your own Bible. You don't adhere to ALL of The Bible (I'm quite sure that you eat shell fish; have worked on a Sunday; wear on occasion polyester clothes - all of which are forbidden in The Bible); so don't suggest that all Muslims adhere to all of the Koran. Sure, there are some idiots who follow the literal teachings of the Koran, just as there are idiots who follow the literal teachings of The Bible. Remember though, these are the extreme minority and should not be generalised as representative of the majority.
Also, remember: "do unto others as they would they should do unto you."
