In this list some quotes from both the Christian Bible and the Muslim Qur’an. Some of the words and names have been changed so as to make it less obvious which book they are from. Your job will be to figure out which holy book made each quote. The goal of this game is to show Christians and Muslims alike that there are many similarities between both faiths (and yes, I know there are many differences, too). By recognizing how much we have in common, we can hopefully bridge a gap and open ourselves to more acceptance and understanding. Oh, and as a side note, terrorists are not Muslims. They are terrorists who distort and assault the religion for their own purposes. So grab a piece of paper and something to write with, and let’s play!
1. Anyone arrogant enough to reject the verdict of the [holy man] who represents God must be put to death. Such evil must be purged.
2. All who curse their father or mother must be put to death.
3. I decided to order a man to lead the prayer and then take a flame to burn all those, who had not left their houses for the prayer, burning them alive inside their homes.
4. Fight them until there is no more [disbelief or worshiping of other gods] and worship is for God alone.
5. Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law. And a man’s foes shall be they of his own household.
6. Make ready to slaughter [the infidel’s] sons for the guilt of their fathers; Lest they rise and posses the earth, and fill the breadth of the world with tyrants.
7. [God’s messenger]… was asked whether it was permissible to attack the pagan warriors at night with the probability of exposing their women and children to danger. The [holy man] replied, “They [women and children] are from them [unbelievers].”
8. If a man commits adultery with another man’s wife, both the man and the woman must be put to death.
9. We took all his cities at that time, and we utterly destroyed the men, women, and little ones of every city; we left none remaining
10. When we resolve to raze a city, we first give warning to those of its people who live in comfort. If they persist in sin, judgment is irrevocably passed, and we destroy it utterly.
11. Slay the idolaters wherever you find them. Arrest them, besiege them, and lie in ambush everywhere for them.
12. When God delivers them over to you, you shall conquer them and utterly destroy. You shall make no covenant with them nor show mercy to them.
13. Fight for the sake of God those that fight against you, but do not attack them first. God does not love aggressors.
14. Anyone else who goes too near the [Holy Place] will be executed.
15. Anyone who blasphemes God’s name must be stoned to death by the whole community of [believers].
16. God’s Apostle said, “I have been ordered to fight the people till they say: ‘None has the right to be worshiped but God’.
17. I shall terrorize the [heathens]. So wound their bodies and incapacitate them, because they oppose God and his apostle.
How do you think you did? Did you notice any patterns in there? There was a whole lot a violence, it seems. A bunch of “putting to death.” When Christians look at Muslims and call them all terrorists, are they not ignoring their own Holy book’s calls to violence? Just as the vast majority of Christians ignore these ancient, violent instructions, so too do most modern Muslims. Check out the answers below, and comment with how you did.
Answer key:
1. Bible: Deuteronomy 17:12
2. Bible: Leviticus 20:9
3. Qur’an: Bukhari 11:626;
4. Qur’an: 2:193;
5. Bible: Matthew 10:34-35
6. Bible: Isaiah 14:21
7. Qur’an: Bukhari 52:256
8. Bible: Leviticus 20:10
9. Bible: Deuteronomy 2:34
10. Qur’an: 17:16
11. Qur’an: 9:5
12. Bible: Deuteronomy 7:2
13. Qur’an: 2:190
14. Bible: Numbers 1:51 NLT
15. Bible: Leviticus 24:16
16. Qur’an: Bukhari 8:387
17. Qur’an: 8:12
So, how did you do?
all good but Bukhari is not part of Quran.
ReplyDeleteThose who call on God to violence are listening to the whispers of evil!
ReplyDeleteAllah Wills it! God Wills it!
In the Old Testament does it say those who do not like your religion should die?
well it says it in the Quran! The new Bible is an edited piece of crap by jews.
And who goes by life listening to a book written thousands of years ago!
A book of peace does not call on the blood shed of non believers.
Think of whispers of evil.
This is ridicules..
ReplyDeleteChapter & verse ---
ReplyDeleteKILL ALL DISSIDENTS:
Exodus c.32 v.27
Numbers c.11 v.1-2
Numbers c.16 all
Numbers c.21 v.5-6
Numbers v.26 v.10
Islam is the closest religion to Judaism. If you take Mohammad out of Islam, what is left is Judaism, almost all their religious laws are the same. Sharia law copies Halacha law. Jews and Moslems got along beautifully until Israel replaced the original inhabitants of Palestine who were treated exactly the same way the American Indians were treated and much worse.
ReplyDeleteIslam, like Christianity, accepts the Jewish Bible and is based largely upon Jewish ideas and traditions. The philosophical underpinnings of Islam, however, are more closely aligned with those of Judaism. Whereas Christianity incorporates the idea of the “trinity,” Islam believes in one all-powerful, infinite God.
Mohammed, the founder of Islam, based many of his beliefs on the practices of local Jewish population in his native Mecca. For example, the Moslem practices of not eating pig, circumcision, daily prayer and fasting during the first month of the year were all culled directly from Judaism.
Since Jews refuse to acknowledge or recognize Jesus and the NEW testament it is not correct to intermingle the two.
ReplyDeleteThere all worthless. Sharia law should be banned. Islam is a blight on Europe.
ReplyDeleteMohammed is blood line of Nordics along with all the ancient Arabs. Red hair, blue eyes, or dying his beard red. Same with Ancient Egyptians, Sumerians.
Judaisim is another name for worshiping Saturn, 'er Satan.
Mecca the Great Home of the Saturn Cube where all the Sheep come to beg and worship. Saturn.
Saturn Cronus/Kronos the God of Time, Destruction, the Devour.
All silly Monotheism Religions are about an External God!
The Divine is part of us all a Hidden History oppressed by these three religions.
Hence the Third EYE, Chakra Level, and Sun and Moon. The Tripod, keys to the Divine.
Islam ideas were created by a Jew, Marxism, Zionism.
The biggest commonality between the quran and the bible is that they are both full of BS!!!

Replace religion with critical thinking : "If it is to be, it is up to me" Our job is to help each other. Money will not exist when this is fully implemented. We are completely connected and anything that happens to any one of us, happens to all of us, collectively. Use your conscience, your heart, your intuition and your critical thinking. Never give up and do your best. We love you.
ReplyDeleteCool story Hasbara
ReplyDeleteyou are incorrect and must study real history dating back 5000 to 7000 years.
ReplyDeleteIt has nothing to do with any prophet.
you reply shows you lack an understanding of the Esoteric.
But I am not a teacher nor wish to be. I'll let you take that journey.
Thats the challange, what does the so called Chrsitians belive in, the old testament/Torah or the teachnings given by Yeshua, an Palestinian Edomite speaking a semittic language called Arameic.
ReplyDeleteThis Christianity is perverted beyound oblivion into a death cult, where fear is the tool.
As happends to Islam, when it diversifyed it selfs and morphed into various cults.
All, had their own interpitations as the Talmud is an Haddit of the Torah, to use an familiare expresion curently used against Islam for a weird reason and not to the other branshes of the so called Chrsitianity, whom is waist deep in blood and gore.
Dont talk about the splinter in the other ones eyes, when you dont see the rod in your own.
tsk, tsk
I am know the entire bible is basicly a fraud, some truths, but then people belive Sherlock Holms was real to.
The entire bible location is located in Yemen, not in whats present Palestina/Israel.
The beginning copyed from others, mainly Zoroastrians, and the rest is an Mithrandic lore from babylon, as the Talmud is.
Yea why dont we talk about THAT book.
peace

I am very familiar with the Esoteric and occult. You know it ALL deals with the Jinn? A concept explained in the Quran?
ReplyDeleteMagic is dealing with the Jinn.. yes
I have studied Islam extensively.
Have you even bothered to read the Quran?
Nah man... God is one, and God's religion is one. All differences are man made.
All Prophets were Muslims and by that I mean they have all submitted themselves to their Creator. Islam literally means submission...
Judaism and Christianity uncorrupted and unaltered are actually Islam.
We worship the Kaaba? that is news for me... The Kaaba is merely a focal point for prayers, nothing less nothing more. The bricks that make the Kaaba are no more holier than the bricks and cement that we use on regular basis in the towns
we live in
Furthermore, that comparison is hilarious.
These 17 point don't even exist in the Quran. Only time you are permitted to kill is in SELF-DEFENSE.
Who is fighting Islam? the Satanic Elite, don't you agree?
The NWO is all about the Dajjal, who is defiance to real Christ, the son of Mary, will rule from Jerusalem.
That is why they gave Palestine to satanic Khazars...
Horus the Egyptian God was one eyed, same goes for Odin...
The historical names of god;
ReplyDeleteGreek; Eleu, Elion, Elelele, Alala, El, "Helles," "Helladas," (People of God)
Areas where Greeks lived and greatly influenced later cultures,
Mesopotamia
Places where historical Greeks claimed they were from,
Caucasus and Mesopotamia
Modern Arabic name for God,
"Allah."
The Arab peoples worship the same god as everyone else. Deal with it.
"All differences are man made."
ReplyDeleteCorrect. At the core any difference between religions are caused by interpretation by man of ancient texts.
very good, all interpretations are man made. Through out time the real reasons the real meaning is lost, it is warped into something else.
ReplyDeleteAll words are numbers that still mean the same as the words they came from. Coded from the Isis codes.
The Book called the Bible is not the full story of the Bible because the other books are not included.
Christ taught Hermetic teachings.
Yes Jinn is one meaning. There are many names in many cultures, who is right?
Do people know that Roman leaders worshiped demon children and these demons did not go away. They called them the Husks. Rome=catholic church, vatican(the Hidden Hand) Husks(Jinn?)
Love is the Higher Vibration of the soul it's all that matters.
Love and Music.
To many in life and this is through out history have called out in the name of there God for destruction! Allah wills it, Christ wills it.
Before all these monotheistic Belief systems there was Dagon who came from the sea and taught man and women all they should know. This was before the second flood, after the first.
The Pope wears the hat of Dagon/Dogon and the hat of Satern(Saterday)
See words...
The Zionists use religion as way to move whole nations, tribes against someone or each other, they also use race.
Black vs Whites.
Race, Islam thrown into Catholic and Christian Europe.
Islam thrown into USA. But what of what the Indians religion and beliefs are they lesser then those who stole there land, less then the crusades of missionaries in the name of God?
Religion is man made.
Before Religion there was the seven laws the world understood the truth that all are part of the divine and the Inner EYE is the key to reaching the Divine. The Secret of Opposites being balanced as one(Tripod) Trinity.
Left Right
As Above so Below
Sun Moon

These aren't theories or religions.
Nimrod=Horus=Christ....and....
David Mowers is correct.
Doesn't work in a world where there are real psychopaths. You need laws and forms of punishment.
