"According to an ISIS..."

Not 1.6 billion people are members of ISIS. As i said before, if you want to talk about Wahabists, go right ahead. That is less than 5 million people.

If you want to be more specific and talk about ISIS, how about looking at all the western press who are talking about where ISIS came from: http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2015/jun/03/us-isis-syria-iraq

People like Noam Chomsky will tell a detailed story of how the rise of ISIS - the most brutal Islamist movement in existence - to the circumstances created by US policy in the region; that the most brutal are the ones who survive, and when you make survival more difficult by invasions, bombing, destabilising governments, and assassinations (via drone missile strikes or not) you create an environment primed for a group like ISIS to take over.

The facts of Turkish and Saudi involvement in support any group which opposes Iranian influence in the region (and Kurdish influence in the Turk's case) And their continuing alliance with the US all have little to do with differences or similarities in religion; it comes down to economic security.

It is the same Koran for all followers of Islam.

I'm very glad many choose to ignore the teachings of Mohamed.
Gobbledydook (1389 D(B))

I could give many examples of the Bible's outdated teachings and how we don't follow them any more and don't consider ourselves any less Christian, but you won't listen anyway so I should just laugh at you.
BaldOldGuy (74 DX)
12 Oct 15 UTC
Please do. But limit your quotes to the New Testament.

So you're one of those Christians who believes you can make up any "Truth" you want to believe?
Gobbledydook (1389 D(B))

No, I don't even believe in God.
BaldOldGuy (74 DX)
12 Oct 15 UTC
Then don't say you can do things that you really can't. You are just making things up to support a flawed opinion.

You should look at Paschal's Wager.

"Our Father, which art in Heaven.
Hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come.
Thy will be done on earth,
As it is in Heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses
As we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
But deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom,
The power, and the glory,
For ever and ever.
Amen."

Here, everyone have some prayers for their souls!

I suppose I shouldn't be surprised that a thread on Russian intervention in Syria can turn into a thread on praying for peoples sinning Christian souls by now...

One who believes wrongly is worse:

-one who doesn't believe usually does so out of a logical process, even if is devoid of faith
-one who believes wrongly usually misses a logical process, and uses faith as a mask for ignorance

How can that be worse? At least they have the capacity to believe something, whereas atheists simply scoff at the entire idea.
Gobbledydook (1389 D(B))
12 Oct 15 UTC
Either way, the rule as written in the Bible is you follow Christ's teachings and you get into Heaven, so if you don't follow them, whether it is because you don't believe in any god or if you don't believe in Christ, you don't get in. Sorry.

I'd bet Hell is a much more exciting place than heaven though.
