[size=15pt]There are several reasons why I liked this video as a non-muslim, but my favorite has to be, and I quote "Islam does not promote violence or Peace. Like every religion in the world, it depends on what you bring to it. If you're a violent person and you're islam, you're judaism, you're christian, you're Buddhist, it's going to be violent" (4:49- 5:01)[/size]


I don't follow the anti-Islam wagon the USA is trying to pull. As an African, a minority, and a professional, I especially understand how the western media propagates bias towards different idealism, people, and opposition.

This is high level sarcasm. This is the same way they themselves keep chanting 'it's a religion of peace' and at the same time they are pointing daggers to peoples heart and blowing up places. It's an uphill task to convince anyone otherwise.

Jonathan, where were you when Olisah Metuh was calling APC and Islamic party and sponsor of Boko Haram? You indirect supported him, thinking you could win sympathy. But you were too clueless to know that the votes of christians alone cannot guarantee you victory.

or in the name of Christianity
This is from Wikipedia =>

The Lord's Resistance Army (LRA), also known as the Lord's Resistance Movement, is a militant movement which has been described variously as being quasi-Christian, "Christianist," extremist Christian, or as a new religious movement or a cult which operated in northern Uganda and South Sudan. Originally known as the United Holy Salvation Army and Uganda Christian Army/Movement, its stated goals include ruling Uganda according to the Ten Commandments.

Since 2005 there have been claims that the group has entered the Democratic Republic of Congo, and in 2007 it was reported that it was in Central African Republic. The LRA has been accused of widespread human rights violations, including murder, abduction, mutilation, child-sex slavery, and forcing children to participate in hostilities.

The LRA was initially formed to resist the Uganda People's Defence Force (UPDF), called the National Resistance Army (NRA) before it took control of the country. The NRA/UPDF has been accused of widespread murder, rape, and pillage. In June 2006, Radhika Coomaraswamy, the UN's special representative for children, found more than 5000 children recruited in the Ugandan government army.

Ideologically, LRA believe in African mysticism and Christian fundamentalism. It claims to be establishing a theocratic state based on the Ten Commandments and local Acholi tradition.

The group is led by Joseph Kony.

Trying to understand GEJ's view, let me put it in a better way.... Terrorism has nothing to do with true Muslims. We all have one or two Muslims as neighbours, they are peaceful people.

BUT another fact is... Wicked extremists found it easier to hide under Islam to propagate their wickedness.

My opinon, I stand to be corrected. I'm a Christian.

My concern is how do you know who is a true Muslim when you are not a Muslim. The extremist say they are the true Muslim, the conservatives say the extremist are not true Muslim.
My best friend is a Muslim (from a family of great imams) and we don't discuss religion, but an uncle of his (an imam) once told him in my presence that it is wrong for him to be good friends with me a non-muslim, I felt bad that day.
Therefore I got thinking since that day, who is a real Muslim my friend or his uncle?

I hope you can share with us the statement from Metuh from a credible source, otherwise you will be the one who is "too clueless to know" that you do NOT share rumours anyhow in public!

Every sane person both Christian and Muslim wants peace. Wants to excel in life and enjoy the beautiful things life has to offer. Wants to see their children grow and influence their community positively. No sane human either Christian or Muslim prays for war. That some bad elements uses their religion as an excuse for evil does not make others bad, and we have such elements both in Christianity and in Islam. What units us is far greater than what is trying to tear us apart and until we realize that we are first all humans created by God, breathing the same air, walking on the same earth, having the same urge to feed, grow, procreate, habouring the same fear for the unknown before ever being tagged a Christian or a Muslim we will continue to fight over meaningless things.

Diplomacy sometimes requires tactical dishonesty. GEJ, being the father of the nation and coupled with the fact that he is of a different religious persuasion would be foolish to make inflammatory statement that would upset the delicate balance of religion-induced disquiet in the nation.

Man is just simply wicked. Take away religion as you see it and man will get something else.
Even an advert on super sport sometimes back claimed; "football is my religion" grin and you know how fights have happened at football events.

Old testament.

Now, we live the new testament and make reference to the old testament that established the new. The violence in the old testament gives appreciation of the peace in the New testament. It also offer historical relevance.
