THE BIBLE OR THE KORAN (QURAN) - CHRISTIANITY OR ISLAM?

With all of the rhetoric and news lately about
"religions", and "Which religion is right?", I
feel it's time to compare the teachings of the
sacred books of 2 of the major schools of thought
as far as ideology and faith is concerned.

THE CHOICE IS YOURS.  Compare some of
the major tenets of Christianity and Islam, and
DECIDE FOR YOURSELF which you prefer
to believe and follow in your lifestyle. 

THE DIFFERENCES ARE STARK, to put it
mildly, but you have to know which is best
for you.  The choice is obvious to me, but
here are some of the comparisons:

THE BIBLE teaches us to LOVE everybody.
THE KORAN teaches HATE.

THE BIBLE tells us to FORGIVE.
THE KORAN preaches REVENGE.

THE BIBLE says to PRAY FOR OUR ENEMIES.
THE KORAN says it's okay to KILL THOSE WHO
       DISAGREE WITH YOU.

THE BIBLE puts a HIGH VALUE ON LIFE.
THE KORAN believes that DEATH IS VIRTUOUS.

THE BIBLE says that JESUS CHRIST IS GOD/LORD.
THE KORAN follows the lifestyle of Mohammed.

THE BIBLE tells us to HONOR LITTLE CHILDREN.
THE KORAN puts NO VALUE ON THEIR DIGNITY.

THE BIBLE provides GRACE AND FORGIVENESS
     FOR ALL SINNERS.
THE KORAN says to HANG HOMOSEXUALS.

THE BIBLE commands that WE DO NOT STEAL.
THE KORAN teaches that EVERYBODY'S PROPERTY
     IS ISLAM'S.

THE BIBLE says WE SHALL NOT KILL.
THE KORAN permits BEHEADINGS & HANGINGS.

THE BIBLE records that JEHOVAH/YAHWEH IS GOD.
THE KORAN talks about "ALLAH".

THE BIBLE says we ought to RAISE CHILDREN IN GOD'S WAYS.
THE KORAN allows its adherents to MARRY & ABUSE CHILDREN.

THE BIBLE allows us to HAVE ONLY ONE HUSBAND/WIFE.
THE KORAN tells its followers POLYGAMY IS OKAY.

THE BIBLE (and our U.S. Constitution) says that ALL OF
     HUMANITY IS "CREATED EQUAL".
THE KORAN teaches the DIMINISHING OF WOMEN.

THE BIBLE states that we should RESPECT GOVERNMENT.
THE KORAN says it's OKAY TO SUBVERT GOVERNMENTS.

THE BIBLE teaches us to HAVE THE PEACE OF GOD, AND
     TO BE AT PEACE WITH ALL MEN.
THE KORAN's followers ENGAGE IN HATRED, WARFARE, ETC.

THE CHOICE IS YOURS.  WHICH SOUNDS LIKE THE
"RIGHT LIFESTYLE" AND FAITH FOR YOU?

There will probably be at least 1 more treatise on this
subject, but I want to get you to thinking and comparing.
As I stated earlier, the choice, to me, is obvious.

GOD BLESS YOU.
