The Difference between Islam and Christianity

Just read this article first

OK. Now that you're back, let me state simply a 2 things:

1. Christians don't cut their head with razor blades and flagellate themselves to celebrate saints. And even the celebration of saints days is limited to the Roman Catholic church.

2. The God of the New Testament is a God of Love. His command is love. Love him, love others as yourself.

Just sayin' is all

Well, up to a point. Christians don't do those sort of things.

Except here. Oh, and here. I spent a number of years living there and saw some extraordinary things.

Saying the sort of self mutilation that the extremely devout Shiites practice has no analog in Christianity is just... wrong.

Oh, and those who espouse Islam have no monopoly on terrorism, either. Christianity may well be a religion of love. Shame that more of its followers don't remember that.
