The Old Testament proclaims ancient & sometimes fundamentalist doctrine, which is replaced by Christian Doctrine in the New Testament.
Yet the Old Testament remains included in the Bible. Yet, the Old Testament is quoted by many Christians to justify their most heinous acts.
Are you saying that when they do this they are like the Muslims? Implying, as you so eloquently do, that Muslims should be open to no less critical ridicule and when they are criticised it is no more racist and no more a religious persecution than what you just did now?
Well done, five squeezes from me, Tits.
Have you noticed Soren, the difference between extremism and moderate believers? No one here is remotely defending Islamic Extremism, or any other kind of religious extremism (well, except Yadda the genocide advocate)
Awwww Stratos!, you are just afraid that i may be correct.
And [afraid] that my God is going to kill you all, for being infidels!!!

[pssssst!, you should be!]
I hate to break this to you. There is no God. It is a figment of your imagination. Stop consuming the Opiate!
(.)(.)whatever your name is....
I hate to break this to you.
There is a God. God exists.
Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.
CONSIDER;
Prior to Columbus discovering the Americas [well, central America anyway]
the American continents did not exist,
well not within the mental consciousness of Europeans.
I am sure that when Columbus returned to Spain, that initially many of his interlocutors were unable to 'conceive' of Columbus' 'new world', beyond the horizon.
I am certain that when Columbus returned to Spain from the Americas, that many Europeans refused to believe, that he had discovered a 'new world'.
And why so ???
"A new world???
Beyond the horizon!!!
That is absurd.
I have not experienced it, and i can not conceive of it, therefore, it is not, it can not be real."
Its the same concept.
Trying to convince a 'natural' man of the existence of a spiritual realm, must be, i am sure, similar to the initial experience of Columbus when he returned from the new world.
"I can't believe that there is a spiritual realm, because >> i << have not experienced it."
LOL
Fair enough.
You poor atheists, live in such a 'small world'.
I am happy for you, to believe what you will.
Your own human 'wisdom' [
"I am only going to believe in, that which >> i << can perceive!"
] precludes you, being willing to search, for what you 'know', does not exist.
Good luck with that!!!

CONSIDER, #2;
If an atheist stepped outside on a sunny cloudless day,
an atheist would never dream of suggesting that there are no stars in the sky, above their head.Why?
Because...
Even though an atheist cannot see the stars overhead, the atheist knows that the stars are there.
Likewise, many theists [believers in, lovers of, God] know that God, our 'imaginary friend' [a spirit], is there.
Many people know [from 1st hand experience] that God is real.
