Roadtoad. I was not blessed the the photographic memery that my older brother had. I don't even remember which side won in War and Peace; who slept with Anna Karanina; what it was the Sherlock found elementary; where the Brave New World came from; how deep Twenty-Thousand Leagues was; what that Germen fellow's struggle was; who committed the Murders in the Rue Morgue; who wore the Mask of the Red Death; what year 1984 was; who died at the Alamo; or much less a specific passage in a book I read somewhere around 1960.

From the way the Muslims have repeatedly tried conquest of non-Muslim areas, I do know that Mohammed was not referring only to those who invaded their realm but to all non-believers and I believe that it is you that is taking things out of context not most of the rest of the literary world. And in referecne to APB's previous question, I believe that Christianity tried to convert non-believers by spreading the "word of God" and not with a sword.

You can apologize for them all you want but you will never convince me that Islam is a "peaceful religion". And that is my last word on it.
