Stringman is very religious and knows the bible inside and out.
When I was a child I went to sunday school and was confirmed. I learned that God loves everyone. My memory could be fading me but that what I remember.
This video has caused a lot of problems in the world and I don't understand why a man who loves God and believes that the bible is the word of God, would post the video that has caused so much disturbance in the world hoping for a discussion between people from many different countries. All that will do is create a thread of fights and attacks.

not the intent to cause any trouble but to be aware of what they are tring to do.
i did not watch the movie. but having suffered islamic rules all my life,i can say that there is not brotherhood between islam and humanity.their holly book orders the followers to " be kind to themselves and harsh to non-muslims" and that fraze i acurately qouted is in their book.. regarding recent events in Lybia ,i think that was a europian trick using muslims in their competition against the united states. how come muslims of other states were not "that" annoyed to kill an american embassador? those disgusting terrorists are being used i think

Monte, this video has not caused a lot of problems in the world. It is a course, intended to educate. It is not a hate film. It is educational and the man is in the know.
I do not think this video would cause fights and attacks in this thread.
This subject is a matter of importance in many states, my state of Oklahoma for one. There are court battles going on, trying to enact Sharia law here. The video will help us understand so we can support those whom we feel will represent how we feel about it.

I also had to go through 2 years of religious education and it was a very common sense, peaceful approach they took with us kids.
You know, this fellow may know his bible inside and out, but he would do better if he also knew the Koran inside and out rather than rely on videos to tell him "all about it".
We all know that there are crazy Christians and Jews who have a rather bizarre interpretation of their respective scriptures and we also know that not all religious activities are intended for the greater glory of god, rather than for the fatter wallets or political interest.
All we have to do is look at the divisions within Christianity. A southern baptist or a pentecostal has as much in common with a lutheran or a liberal protestant as a catholic has with islam.

Did the Obama administration abandon Gadhafi because he stood in the way of the Muslim Brotherhood plan to ride the Arab Spring to power, replacing established dictatorships with Islamist states?
WND has reported the penetration of Muslim Brotherhood influence in the inner circles of the White House and the State Department.
WND has also reported that the Muslim Brotherhood in Libya harbored al-Qaida and that an al-Qaida operative released by the United States from Guantanamo Bay turns out to have led the attack that killed Stevens, the diplomat who went to such personal lengths to help the Libyan rebels depose Gadhafi.
What the establishment media is ignoring is how deep and long-standing the ties between Obama and Gadhafi truly were and the national security danger Obama may well have invited by allowing the Muslim Brotherhood to enter the inner circles of power under his watch as president.
There is a video out there, 4 parts I think on the history of Islam. There is nothing wrong with the Koran. I have copy and read it. The problem there, as in Christianity and Judaism is when people misinterpret the books for their own selfish gains.
What more does anyone need than having god back them up when they want to go kill other people.

All the organized religions interpret their holy books to suit their needs or beliefs, which is why I'm not personally a big fan of organized religion. I do, however, deeply respect the role that the churches play in society and many of the values they promote.
Luckily most modern day religions focus on tolerance rather than violent intolerance. Imagine if all the Baptists, Lutherans, Methodists, Mormans, Catholics, Jews, etc. felt it was their duty to kill all non-believers of their faith? Certainly Muslims don't all believe or support violence, but obviously there is a large contingency out there that do and that is a serious danger to all of us at the moment.

Everything´s wrong with Quran to start with!
Quran itself is NOT what Mohammed has said,rather,what he SUPPOSED to have said.....
IF it´s the same God Quran is presenting,-as the one who meets us in OT/NT,-then many thing´s are terrible wrong...
Just for a start,-in Genesis SOMEONE tells us what happened during the creation,-in Quran,-God is telling HOW it was "done",-but,-the versions are miles apart,but why?
That remains a mystery,but an idea would be,that God had a memory loss,or that Mohammed had wax in his ears....
The God that meets us in OT,is a violent,bloodthirsty,hating,destroying,confused,envious War God,-and the one who meets us in NT,is a forgiving one...In Quran however,-he/she´s a confused,insecure one....
For some reason this thread got me thinking about the general status of religion here in America. I grew up alternating between homes in the deep south and in the NY/Tri-state region. Throughout my lifetime I've functioned among just about every major religion out there and have attended just about every branch of the varying churches.
Just going by my own life experience here, but it seems to me that the American principles of Freedom of Religion has served us very well over the past many years. There is generally a great acceptance between the various religions and we have largely lived in harmony and acceptance of other's beliefs. My kids, who do not attend any church, do routinely visit different churches with their friends and they all discuss their religious beliefs openly. This weekend they were at a Catholic service and last night, a Baptist. Some of their friends at school dress differently because of their religion, but it is not viewed as weird or unacceptable...just different and interesting.
Anyway, the most friction I have seen is my lifetime is in the past several years due to the intolerance of Islamic extremists and now the intolerance towards Christianity. It's depressing.
Morning K. I do believe that Christians would be like Muslims if they were threatened to become muslin. A element would be radically militant. Religious beliefs are hardest to change.
