well basically, my take on it is that Christianity started as a non-violent religion that supported faithful non-violent resistance and, as it grew in magnitude, became more violent as it meshed with the secular and political world. islam, however, started out as violent, grew decadent under the osmanli turks, and is now caught between the violent fundamentalists and a more peaceful interpretation (in western countries more than in the empire of Islam itself).[quote]
What about these Bible passages? And Revalations?
"Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword."-Matthew 10:34
"If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple. " - Luke 14:26
