Hey don't try to twist what happened.....
This was the story.....durin the inquisition Periods,it was the roman catholic that that were punishing those that were opposing their own beliefs( not the whole Christian beliefs)-mind you, they were not killing them....and contrary to what you said, there were explosive materials then!
And the reason for the punishment was because people were opposing(just like the boko haram) not because they didn't want to be a Christian....its just like if Christians wants to fight back now and treat Muslims cruelly or pickup arms.....
And again, there is no part in the bible that preaches violence...

tchaik:
Go and read the history of christianity, hell no, start from King David who will wake up on day and say that God sent him to a land (various of them) to kill every man and woman; even cattle, and possess for his people.
Now come on, which God will send you to commit genocide on a property that aint yours?
Didn't the early Christians during the Reign of Pompei revolte against the Emperror? ( Many times violently).
Let's us not bring religion inside this kitchen, these people are psychotic!

dhabrio: @ noblezone: make ur findings very well before ‎​U̶̲̥̅̊ jump into conclusion. Islam is not a violent religion. It a religion ‎​U̶̲̥̅̊ need to understand before you practice it, that's why He said "know M̶̲̥̅ε̲̣̣̣̥ before ‎​U̶̲̥̅̊ worship M̶̲̥̅ε̲̣̣̣̥, cos if ‎​U̶̲̥̅̊ don't know M̶̲̥̅ε̲̣̣̣̥, how wld ‎​U̶̲̥̅̊ worship me". The so called boko may have a fainted knowledge of Islam but they have ₪☺ atom of understanding. Knowledge without understanding is a waste. Pls oo, Islam is the best and peaceful religion I've ever known. I never practice it bcs my parents do, I do bcs I found it to be true religion. Boko are not of us!!!!

tchaik:
Do we christians even bother to read our own history?
Was there anything like 'catholic church" during inquisition period?
When did 'catholic' form?
Mtchewwwwwww!!!!!!!!!!
NB: will not comment to any ill-informed posts again!

nex: It takes a lot of branwashing to get to where this group today. I don't agree that they would have been able to achieve so much without Atiku, and his foreign counterparts. He mistakenly blurted out his plan for violent change before the elections, but that had actually been his "Plan A".

sakinmuwagun: This boko haram guys are only covering up under religion. Islam is peaceful.there are muslims in the south, are they not peaceful? Some 'untouchable political elements' are behind BH. They are errand boys to some frustrated and selfish politicians who choose to kill fellow citizens. Remember the like of Buhari, Atiku, Shekarau etc neither come to the open neither in secret to condemn the activities of BH.May God heal our land and cleanse it of evil.

noblezone: Koran has sympathy for those who kill for the blood thirsty Allah.
Did I say sympathy? I mean support...... em mmm. Its even a command.

Islam is not a religion of peace.

The peace in Islam is defined by subduing all with contrary views.

The sooner we face the truth, the better for us.

javalove: I am a Muslim and I can tell you that these Boko guys are confused. . .deluded and know nothing about islam. . .

A MATYR IS NOT SOMEONE WHO GOES OUT TO DIE OR KILL HIMSELF OR WRAP A BOMB AROUND HIS BODY!!!.. . .A MATYR DIES IN THE PROCESS OF STRUGGLE. . .NOT NESSECARILY WAR . .I COULD EVEN BE IN THE CAUSE OF HELPING OTHERS OR A COMMUNITY SERVICE. . .

The Holy Prophet Muhammed (Peace Be Upon Him) taught us that "The ink of a scholar is holier than the blood of a matyr". . .so seek knowledge because if you are able to seek knowledge and you choose not to, you carry a full sin.

He also said that "Seek knowledge, even if it s as far as China". . .because China was the fartherest place known to them at that time. . . .

Allah knows best. . .and he will expose whoever is behind them someday.

Finally, am I the only one thinking this whole Boko setup is taking the exact pattern of Al-Qaeda. . .?
my dear i like ur update. but does it mean that the quran u read is different from what other belivers of allah read. cos i have a friend who told me that allah saya kill all unbelievers, use ur influence to promote his religion by all means. he said he is not an ordinary muslim. he even gave me quotations from ur quran. if ur reasonong is different form theirs then i think u are closer to the real truth about salvation cos God said though shall not kill and if allah says kill. then who is contradicting? just my opinion



#Javalove. . .unless otherwise stated. . .!

bodejohn: I have always said this, in matters of religion and violence, religion is like water, it takes the shape of whoever carries it. We have seen people of diverse religion melting out cruelty to their fellow human beings. There is presently a man who calls himself a pastor who is threatening to deal with me after accepting that he encroached on my parcel of land because I have not made my perimeter fence to protect his own property. There is a story of a fulani man who cut off a man's hand in Oyo state because the poor farmer refused to drop his yams for the fulani's cattle to graze on.
I think the BH members first had inborn tendencies to be violent before hiding under religion to unduly justify their dastardly acts. My firm belief is that if we are to win the war against these terrorists, true adherents of Islam should first publicly disown them and which the government can then face them squarely with the confidence that they are not dealing with a religious set but a terrorist organisation.

hamsky: I don't understand why people with very little understand of a religion or any other subject blab whatever they think is right without being sure. Allah only means GOD in arabic so if you say that Allah is blood thirsty then its like saying Chineke (God in Igbo) is blood thirsty. I don't care what you guys think but there is no were in the Qur'an that commands the killing of christians or innocent people. If you can find it anywhere in the Qur'an let me know and I will convert to your religion.

speedyboi: see...I concur.....Islam ia a violent religion. Everybody should go and read about the history of Islam, even muhammed himself was a terrorist killing people unjustly so that they can be on his side. That is why any country in which Islam is the religion of about 50% of the population, they never have peace.....consider other Islamic nations like Arab, Iraq etc.....it has been the same old story of violence and terrorism. I know some people will want to blast me right now, but that's the truth. Infact there are places in the quran that preaches violence directly or indirectly, I was told all this by a former Muslim who is converted. I did my own research and I found out it is true...

suraaj: I dont really blame those idiot dat insult my religion (ISLAM)cos are all christian the same?If your answer is No. please dont generalise that all muslims are bad.Boko haram sect are just .01%

TroGunn:

Please enlighten about the verses below. Source: http://www.thereligionofpeace.com/Quran/023-violence.htm

Quran (2:191-193) - "And slay them wherever ye find them, and drive them out of the places whence they drove you out, for persecution [of Muslims] is worse than slaughter [of non-believers]... but if they desist, then lo! Allah is forgiving and merciful.   And fight them until persecution is no more, and religion is for Allah."  (The historical context of this passage is not defensive warfare, since Muhammad and his Muslims had just relocated to Medina and were not under attack by their Meccan adversaries.  In fact, the verses urge offensive warfare, in that Muslims are to drive Meccans out of their own city (which they later did).  The use of the word "persecution" by some Muslim translators is thus disingenuous (the actual Muslim words for persecution - "idtihad" - and oppression - a variation of "z-l-m" - do not appear in the verse).  The actual Arabic comes from "fitna" which can mean disbelief, or the disorder that results from unbelief or temptation.  Taken as a whole, the context makes clear that violence is being authorized until "religion is for Allah" - ie. unbelievers desist in their unbelief).
 
Quran (2:244) - "Then fight in the cause of Allah, and know that Allah Heareth and knoweth all things."
 
Quran (2:216) - "Fighting is prescribed for you, and ye dislike it. But it is possible that ye dislike a thing which is good for you, and that ye love a thing which is bad for you. But Allah knoweth, and ye know not."  (Not only does this verse establish that violence can be virtuous, but it also contradicts the myth that fighting is intended only in self-defense, since the audience was obviously not under attack at the time.  From the Hadith, we know that this verse was narrated at a time that Muhammad was actually trying to motivate his people into raiding merchant caravans for loot).

Quran (9:29) - "Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, (even if they are) of the People of the Book, until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued."  ("People of the Book" refers to Christians and Jews.  This was one of the final "revelations" from Allah and it set in motion the tenacious military expansion, in which Muhammad's companions managed to conquer two-thirds of the Christian world in the next 100 years.  Islam is intended to dominate all other people and faiths).

Quran (9:30) - "And the Jews say: Ezra is the son of Allah; and the Christians say: The Messiah is the son of Allah; these are the words of their mouths; they imitate the saying of those who disbelieved before; may Allah destroy them; how they are turned away!"

Quran (9:123) - "O you who believe! fight those of the unbelievers who are near to you and let them find in you hardness."

Beync: Someone said alah is the same as almighty God,its not true pls. The true God does not approve of physical war today. He said vengeance is for him even if anyone persecutes u. while allah say kills non believer and those who persecute u. While God said our fight is not of physical but against wicked spirit in the high place high places. If they said allah is God almighty they would believe in Jesus who is son of God but they believe mohamed son of allah. Where is the correlation? There is not link between light and darkness abeg.
