I have studied the history of Christ, christianity, and Christs teachings. and how he lived his life.. To do a comparative study on two men, even if you do not believe in Christ as diety.. one can only come to the unmistakable conclusion .that mohammed was a power driven lust filled maniacal pedifile self proclaiming prophet...whom to this day , people look to as a role model. the teachings of Christ .....are peace, the teachings of mohammed were war and vengence. Insofar as 'christians' choosing the commandments, I am most curious how many christians the writer that began this thread have met in their lifetime. there are approximately 2 billion or more christians in the world. Christs commandments were simple yet profound. to love God with all your heart spirit mind strength(the Shema') and to love your neighbor as yourself. I do not know one christian on earth that would disagree with those two commandments. Following them is of course another story. that is why christianity is not based on our performance but on the teachings and life of the Christ. To this very day..2013, all over the islamic world.. women are still being stoned to death in the 2lst century and people who try to leave the 'religion' of islam are being tortured and murdered as apostates. The qur'an has over 100 surahs that teach and preach death and intolerance to non believers. Human rights violations..most especially as it applies to the female gender, regarding stoning.. female mutalation with female circumcision , honor killings abound in islamic societies. muslim countrys are coming apart . There are no freedoms in islamic societies. God did not make us robots...and when one is FORCED to follow rules and regulations..that is not true love for God, that is slavery, which islam abides to by the nth degree, slavery to 'allah' I DONT KNOW ABOUT THE WRITER OF THIS THREAD..WHO IS ADVOCATING..that christians..pick and choose commandments..and advocate sin ..i.e. sex drinking etc etc. to their hearts content...where they come up with that allegation, I only know that true christians that love Christ try to walk in His ways, stumble , and continue to press on growing in their faith till the day they die...CHRISTIANITY IS worship of life, l'chaim, Jesus said He is the way the truth and the LIFE.
islam is worship of death. there are millions of muslims around the world who have left islam, exmuslims.com is for sale @ DomainMarket.com, Apostates of Islam - We left Islam, so many sites and blogs...and with great peril to their own lives that they have left islam i might add. I believe with all due respect here, that the person who opened up this thread..saying islam is a better god to follow is clueless of its teachings, and its blood filled history. to be sure 'christianity' had moments of violence in its history, but again to reiterate, the teachings of Christ and mohammed are apples and oranges here...and no christian in the 2lst century is killing anyone for leaving a church, or stoning women to death. Islam is still in the 7th century. Sharia law..is lawless..and its courts in muslim countrys are a horror show to women especially rape victims.
I could go on and on and on..and unfortunately I think I did here..so I apologize for that...but it is hard to fanthom anyone advocating islamic teachings over christianity. there are so many books to read..but i would humbly suggest two .....to the writer who initiated this thread.
one is the bible
the other is the quran
if at the end of the day, the writer who began this thread still thinks islam is a better way to go.
good luck. unlike islam God does not force himself on anyones heart.

Wow..... I am the OP of this thread. Please go back and read it. I said in no uncertain terms that I would NEVER go with Muslim over Christianity. The world would be better off without any religion than having us fight and kill in the name of god, but Christianity is less violent than Muslim so if we must have one I vote for the teachings of Jesus. Be very clear, when it comes to fanatical thinking, the people of the Middle East lead the world.
