I have neighbors and relatives that are Muslim's and kind, loving upstanding folk. On one occasion my Muslim cousin was critical of the U.S. and Israel, yet when asked which Muslim or Arab country he would want to live in he was silent. With my having served in the U.S. Army, while in Kabul we had to attend weekly mandatory (Islam) culture classes taught by Afghan, devout Muslim professors with PhD's. They were clear; we American's were not respected as their Muslim brother Osama bin Laden was. Any non-Muslim was/is an infidel and worthy of death unless they convert. In Arab or Muslim countries that have Muslim schools children are indoctrinated to hate America and Israel (as no doubt Barack Obama was). Consequently, those who try to turn a doctrine of hate into a religion of peace are the radical ones who have perverted the Islamic religion.

I'm a Believer in Jesus Christ, and that He is Lord and King, and my prayer is to hide His Word in my heart that I might not sin against Him. He is coming back soon and I thank God for the revelation on Islam which is an enemy of Christ. Please don't respond with any hate mail, I'm a TRUE BELIEVER. I've never heard a jihadist (sic) doing anything productive (building schools, roads, businesses or communities) only fighting and killing and taking over someone else's life of hard work. Jesus said, the thief (Satan) comes to steal, kill and destroy, but I have come, that you may have Life, and that more abundantly. Choose you this day whom you will serve: either Life (Jesus) or Death (Satan). it's that simple.....

In the 28 years I've been a muslim, I've talked to hundreds of muslims and have been to masjids (mosques) in 7 different states. NEVER ONCE have I heard any of them say that terrorism is allowed, that muslims should take over the world, that Islam should be forced on non-believers or Sharia law should be the law of the land.

The "muslims" that say that terrorism is allowed and all of the other things are not practicing true Islam. They "interpret" the words in the Quran to justify what they do and they are a very small percentage of all muslims.

All of the muslims I know denounce terrorism and the terrorists who do that.

Islam is nothing more than Mohamed bearing false witness against the Apostles, the Israeli Prophets and Jesus Christ himself hundreds or thousand of years after the events because he had new revelations that made the Arabs the chosen people.

As a devout Christian, I'm embarrassed by the content in this pamphlet. I would never want anyone to consider my religion violent based on stories from the Old Testament where righteous people chose to kill rather than forgive. Consider the frustration if we were all considered evil because of events in the Spanish inquisitions, the crusades, or any number of insane acts performed by the papacy in the dark ages. How can we explain the numerous indications of slavery in the Bible?

I can separate my study of the scriptures and the important teachings from the historical context that was recorded in languages I can't read. The sections of the Quran I've read don't seem overly violent to me and there are many Christ like suggestions such as being charitable and forgiving.

Christ would certainly not condone the use of money available for helping people in need toward the printing and distribution of material that does not fairly depict the meaning of a religion practiced by one in four people.

Our memories seem to be very short. The incredible violence and hate flowing from a small contingent of fanatics that happen to be Muslim, appears eerily similar to a small contingent of self proclaimed Christians that believed the * Party could inspire people with "Positive Christianity" and justify the murder of millions of Jews.

This pamphlet cannot possibly bring any clarity to modern day conflicts and should be considered a dramatic failure in judgement by the CBN.

Shame on you for release a booklet based on lies, you started off by giving a fraction of of meaning on the definition on jihaad. Jihaad does not meet holy war, the word war in Arabic is harb.

Jihad means struggling in the name of Allah Almighty. Jihad doesn't always mean a war or battle. Any mean for spreading Islam and the Truth, or to fight for what is right and condemn what is wrong (such as fighting the bad and helping the oppressed even if they were not Muslims) are considered Jihad. I'm not going to respond back by giving verses in the Old and New Testaments on the killing verses as I don't that will only results in hatred among the Christians and Muslim.

And the slander you gave to the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) are lies. If you want to seek the real authentic and award winning book on the biography of the Prophet, then read on "The Sealed Nectar" instead (ebook can be downloaded here www.missionislam.com/knowledge/books/Ar-Raheeq_Al-Makhtum.pdf ). I know it's too much but it is based on authentic reporting and not by hearsay of someone has no reputation and acknowledgment even from the Muslim world.

And the verses of Quran where taken out of its context. You wouldn't want people from other faith to quote a verse from Bible out of its context, would you ? Read the original English translation with the commentaries from a well known translator used by many Muslims in the most part of the world ( here is the link to the pdf: http://www.ulc.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/English-Quran-With-Commentaries.pdf ).

Do yourself a favor by reading from these authentic sources and finally you can do your own judgement on what Islam really preach and will come to know that the real teaching of Islam promotes peace and do not harbor terrorism like what you see in the media because it is their job to instill and feed your mind with hatred towards Islam no matter whether they are all false news. You now have the choice to do your own research and you will come to know that the Muslims regards Jesus as well as Noah, Abraham, Moses and Muhammad (peace be upon them all and all other prophets) as the leading Messengers of God which preach mankind to worship and obey one true Monotheistic God, and not Trinity. Muslims uplift Jesus (peace be upon him) by following his way of worship by putting his face on the ground, his fasting, his way of eating kosher food, his greeting of peace, his way of keeping beard and also circumcision, and also Mary the mother of Jesus in ways of keeping her modesty by covering herself like a Muslim.

Truly, read the links I have given you, and trust me, if you seek for the real truth with real intention of finding the truth and not on finding faults, then the truth shall find you, by God's will.

Thank you CBN and all who care to know the truth. The more closely we examine Jesus, the BETTER HE LOOKS!!! The more closely we examine Muhammad, the worse he looks. If you are muslim please understand what is at stake here. You must believe Jesus to get saved. Jesus said I AM THE WAY, THE TRUTH and THE LIFE. He is Almighty God and He is not a liar.

Islam as a religion is a word of God and a complete way of life. Yes there are lots of bad people out there who claim to be Muslims and do evil things like those who are out there who did and still do evil things and claim to be Christians or Jews, all of those are cursed by God and will be badly punished, what they do is an incorrect interpretation of the religion, don’t look at the small percentage of those who do evil things and generalize your judgment, look at the 12+ billion Muslims who reflect the true religion of Islam.

What has been mentioned in this booklet is all fabrication of the true facts about Islam; all of the verses and ahadith were taken completely out of context hence they were completely explained in a false manner. Muslims believe in Jesus, Moses and all other prophets like Mohammad, if a Muslim does not believe in one prophet then his religion is not complete.

Before you judge the religion, learn about it from the mouth of its people who practice it on a daily basis; come and visit an Islamic center and have an experience.

Man has always used titles to define their selves. I prefer not to, I am of native american Indian, bit the only title I will use is I am a child of God and that Jesus Christ is my lord, my savor, my hero, the light in so much darkness, and the holy spirit is my guide to leading my life in a way that will bring joy to his heart as well as my own. I pray for eyes and hearts to be opened, our father is of love and peace, and all things that are good.. My heart goes out to our heavenly father, how his heart must break to see his children killing each other. After all these years of war..in many countries.. What is sad is .. We will be judged on our deeds and so many souls have been lost due to a closed heart

Thanks CBN for putting this up for download on your website! CBN is doing a great job of exposing Islam for the monster that it is! A sinister plan (by Satan, who is behind this!) to deceive people and put them into chains! I love everybody, but I am having a reallly hard time to differentiate between the Muslim and their religion quite frankly. However, I will pray for Muslims to open their eyes so they can see Jesus!

Well CW, Barack Obama was invited to a major Christian church during his presidential campaign, an event that would greatly help his chances of convincing 'the naive, uninformed part of American Christians that he was worthy of their vote. (And naive and uninformed, like the pastor that invited him, is exactly what they were - they voted for him!
During his "conversation He was asked point blank by the pastor of that church whether he was a Christian believer or not. Like the liar and deceiver that he is (mmmm...now, who else fits that "ticket"?!) he looked the pastor in the eyes and stated very clearly that, "I am a born-again believer in Jesus Christ"! Well, he is no more a believer in Jesus Christ than I am the King of Spain! And I do not think that you are any more than he said he was - a believer in Jesus Christ! If you were, you would not come out with this kind of "elaborate" rhetoric! You would defend the stats that she came out with, understanding that she was not out to slander, rather to inform in light of what is taking place in today's society. Or, if you knew better than her (which is hard to believe, quite frankly!), then you would at least shut up, and correct her some other way. Consider the time it took her research this and to write this. No, you are no Christian believer, you are a phoney!
