What could be more liberal than strapping dynamite to your chest and blowing yourself up in line at a Starbucks? Islam is one of the most liberal religions ever known!

Re: I'm Panicking, Is Islam More Conservative than True Christianity?

Islam is evil and we should not be comparing Islam to Christianity. Who cares who is more conservative, Muslims are still going to hell for the simple fact that they reject Jesus as their Lord and savior!! What matters is who's RIGHT and who's SAVED ! And that's TRUE CHRISTIANS!

I don't think anyone is arguing about who is right and who is saved.

Being conservative means orienting your society to preserve the best, tried-and-true traditions and rejecting social evolution that would alter those traditions. In that sense, Islam has done well. They continue to follow unaltered, untranslated scripture given to them (supposedly) by Gabriel, and don't change them because democrats and socialites in their country whine and moan at them because they aren't "hip with the times".

I don't believe Christianity has anything to learn from Islam in regards to extremist violence and suicide bombings. I think we can all agree we're above that.

Of course not! That would be silly! We all know he who has accepted Christ Jesus, as revealed in the Holy Bible, as their personal Lord and Savior, is Saved©, and no one else.

Not quite, dear. Being conservative means conserving the fundamentals of the religion. Islam has done well in that regard (such as officially lowering the marriage age of brides to ten years and even less), but so what? The fundamentals of their religion are such that they deny the divinity of Christ, and consider a foolish book dictated by an illiterate pedophile to be holy. They deny the holiness of the very texts dictated by the Holy Spirit over the course of thousands of years, through dozens of writers (what we call, The Bible).

You can't see the forest for the trees. The Christian world doesn't need suicide bombers, the Christian world needs people who take the Word of God literally and seriously and are not afraid of death (their own or others) in order to see it glorified! Praise Jesus!

Re: I'm Panicking, Is Islam More Conservative than True Christianity?

The notion that Islam is more conservative than Fundamentalist Christianity absurd.

Consider that American Muslims and our Dear Leader are all liberals.

Islam was built on a lie, and for that is inferior to the teaching's of Jesus.
