    These "innocent civlilians" are the same people who were beating up Jews and breaking windows on Kristallnacht and then sent their Jewish neighbors off to camps such as Dachau, Auschwitz, et al.

    Christ was the prophet who talked about being friendly, God himself always ok'd killing everyone not agreeing with you (if you believed in It, this killing everyone not agreeing with It).

    We're down to semantics now. Interesting, isn't it? There's absolutely no more "violence" in the Quran compared to the Torah/Old testament. People claiming "Islam does this and Islam does that" seldom know anything about Islam, and mistake ancient traditions that has nothing to do with the religion with Islam itself.

    People in Europe are a bit more open-minded than in the US - which fits well when viewing Scientific American's map of modernity where the Nordic countries (with Sweden in the lead) tops the list. We see "God bless America" and "Allah Akhbar" being the same thing, and that the war between ignorant people in the US and ignorant followers of bin Laden being equally stupid. /me - Swedish

    ... if you believe in any one of these religions you are biased and not qualified to compare.

    I see no difference between the tribal god of the earlier Jews (not to be mistaken with the omnipotent God it later evolves to) calling everyone else "barbarians" to justify taking their land and other tribal wars justified by Mohammeds interpretations of _the same God's_ will.

    Note: I don't believe in any of these religions, however, a lot of the actual history portrayed is true.

    I'm not a follower of any religion, but I've read "all" the nice and shiny little books - including the Quran. Do you want me to cite passages from the holy books of Judaism or Christianity where Jahwe/God wants the foreskins from the enemies?

    The God in the "Old Testament" (for the X:ites), the jewish Jahwe and Allah are all equally cruel - BECAUSE IT'S THE SAME GOD. ... the stories are the same, the books are the same. Guess what - most of the religion is also the same. Mohammed interpreted it a lot later than Christ did, and for quite some time Islam was the most modern religion of those three. Nowadays it's not, but trying to portray it as being "more violent" is just plain stupid.

    Oh, and the Quran compares the Jews to donkeys.

    And the Bible says that _everyone_ except God's own little tribe are barbarians and can be freely killed when wanting the land God "gave" to them.
