Oklahoma Lawmakers Say No to the Quaran

Tagged: Christianity, Hypocrisy, Islam, Oklahoma
To promote tolerance, a diversity group in Oklahoma bestowed gifts on Oklahoma lawmakers, copies of the Quaran. At least 18 of the state legislators will return the books. They feel that the Quaran condones killing innocent people. State Representative, Rex Duncan stated;
“most Oklahomans do not endorse the idea of killing innocent women and children in the name of ideology.”
The state’s Governor’s Ethnic American Advisory Council’s chairwoman disagrees with Duncan stating that Islam is a religion, not an ideology and it is “very peaceful, very inclusive.”
I hope that they are all indignant about Christian bibles they may come into contact with. They should be very disturbed then at the proliferation of the Christian religion and it’s holy book considering that it condones not only murder but rape! The following passages show how the Christian bible, using the same standards these ignorant lawmakers did, should be denounced.
Judges 21:10-24 NLT- Murder and rape
Numbers 31:7-18 NLT- Murder and rape
Deuteronomy 20:10-14- Murder and rape
Deuteronomy 22:28-29 NLT- Laws for rape
Deuteronomy 22:23-24 NAB- Killing rape victims
2 Samuel 12:11-14 NAB- Murder (of a child) and rape
Deuteronomy 21:10-14 NAB- Rape
Judges 5:30 NAB- Rape during war
Zechariah 14:1-2 NAB- God assisting with rape
2 Chronicles 15:12-13 NAB- Kill all nonbelievers ****
Deuteronomy 13:13-19 NLT- Kill everyone in a city if one of them worships another god****
Deuteronomy 13:7-12 NAB- Kill those who follow other religions****
These are just a few examples. I encourage you to go to EvilBible.com for a more complete list. Notice that the ones that I starred seem alarmingly similar to the passages in the Quaran that these bigoted legislators took issue with. Interesting, I can’t wait for the cries of outrage when they realize that our country is filled with followers of a god who condones murder.

Hello all! I am married and have 3 amazing children. I am a very passionate person and this site is a great outlet for me to share some of my more passionate views on politics and religion in the US. I am a very liberal Democrat and proud of it. I am also a very vocal opponent of Fundamentalist Christianity and its hold on our nation. The free exchange of thoughts and ideas is very important for any sort of discourse so I welcome your input, whatever your view, on anything that I write. ~Summer

One time I had a law teacher ask the class, Hey, today if I went up to perform human sacrifice on my son the way Abraham was prepared to do, don’t you think the child welfare authorities would have gotten involved?

As our social views change, so does the western Christian religion. Although Christianity transforms slower than society, and various groups within Christianity change at different rates with assorted interruptions, nevertheless Christianity is still dynamic … Perhaps the most dynamic of any religion. This is self evident in the large quantity of denominations.
To quote the Old Testament in the Bible and apply (2,000 to 5,000 year old) obsolete concepts in an attempt to nullify Christianity, only shows your lack of understanding of Christianity.
In addition, to be fair you should quote the Quaran.

Christians base their belief structures on both the old and the new testaments. The Garden of Eden, the Flood, the 10 Commandments are all old testament stories, would you say that Christians regard those as obsolete? Clearly they do not. So if part of the old testament is still valid, it is all still valid.
Also remember that Jesus himself said “For truly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, not an iota, not a dot, will pass the law until all is accomplished. Whoever then relaxes one of the least of these commandments and teaches men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but he who does them and teaches them shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.” (Matthew 5:18-19 RSV). Surely you wouldn’t claim that Jesus is obsolete to modern Christians.

Did you also know that there are 2 very similar versions of the law codes the Christians use? One is real and can be authenticated to the time of around 1650 B.C. This is the Law Code of Hammurabi. Then there is the Biblical law code of Moses. Both were Hittites. Both existed (according to my research) around the same time. And in fact may be the very same person. Also have you ever looked at the shape of a pyramid? looks like a volcano doesn’t it? Didn’t Moses go up on a Volcano? look up where he went on the mountain and really read it and you will see what I’m talking about. “shot through as though by fiery arrows, or stoned to death if your people venture too close to the mountain.” well if molten lava hit you I think it would be like a fiery arrow and volcanoes shoot stones and Newton’s Law of Gravity states that “What goes up, must come down…” Just food for thought

Isn’t the law code of Moses the same as the Law Code of Hammurabi? Both Hittites? Both Existed around the time of 1650 B.C. and just may be the same person.The Christian Bible is one of the bloodiest books on the market and is used as a propaganda machine for a Christian version of Jihad. It’s funny also that Abraham had 2 sons and Isaac became the first Christian while Ismael became the first muslim. Abraham was a follower of the old ways and in fact came from the Sumer city of Ur. There they still had sun worship, cannibalism rights to their dead, live sacrifice, and cults to fertility gods such as Baal, who in the Bible is considered the devil. In fact that is where the devil gets his goat’s head and horns and where we derive the term horny.
