Does anybody else find this repulsive? He has every right to pray and express his religion, yet these "Christians" surround him and harass him, they
even throw crosses at him while he prays. This is unChristian behavior. Muslims, Jews, and Christians all worship the same God.
This country needs more religious tolerance.
You can find verses in the Bible that say kill unbelievers. That guy talking at the end is ignorant of what the Bible says. It's the pot calling the
kettle black.
They entered into a covenant to seek the Lord, the God of their fathers, with all their heart and soul; and everyone who would not seek the Lord, the
God of Israel, was to be put to death, whether small or great, whether man or woman. (2 Chronicles 15:12-13 NAB)
Suppose you hear in one of the towns the LORD your God is giving you that some worthless rabble among you have led their fellow citizens astray by
encouraging them to worship foreign gods. In such cases, you must examine the facts carefully. If you find it is true and can prove that such a
detestable act has occurred among you, you must attack that town and completely destroy all its inhabitants, as well as all the livestock. Then you
must pile all the plunder in the middle of the street and burn it. Put the entire town to the torch as a burnt offering to the LORD your God. That
town must remain a ruin forever; it may never be rebuilt. Keep none of the plunder that has been set apart for destruction. Then the LORD will turn
from his fierce anger and be merciful to you. He will have compassion on you and make you a great nation, just as he solemnly promised your
ancestors. "The LORD your God will be merciful only if you obey him and keep all the commands I am giving you today, doing what is pleasing to him."
(Deuteronomy 13:13-19 NLT)
You can find good and bad in every religion, it depends on what you want to take out of it. Violence and intolerance in the name of religion is
disgusting.
