WHY ISLAM IS...EVIL!
ACCORDING TO THE BIBLE

"God loves Muslims just as much
as He loves Christians just as much
as He loves Hindus just as much
as He loves atheists. God loves
everybody, equally, all the time."
-pastor Brad's commentary
*"Physical correction may be administered."

EVIL: "as opposed to good. God is good. Evil is "anti-good," "anti-God"(see Genesis 2:17; Hebrews 5:14).
The feedback from this study has been FASCINATING! By "fascinating" I mean "How quickly people seek to defend a book (the Qu'ran) that they have obviously never studied."
For now, I'll conclude with the following questions.
Question #1. If I told you that I often beat my wife, would you consider that an evil thing to do? Yes or no. How 'bout if I explained to you that "It is God's will for me to beat my wife?" Would you consider such a thing ao be "evil?" Yes or no.

"As to those women
On whose part ye fear
Disloyalty and ill-conduct,
Admonish them (first),
(Next), refuse to share their beds,
(And last) beat them (lightly);"
-Qu'ran 4:34, bold mine

Yusaf Ali,* one of the most well known and widely respected translators of the Qu'ran in English affirms this teaching. Namely, that the aforementioned verse which instructs Muslim men to beat their wives is indeed, the inspired word of Allah, and means exactly what it says.
Here I find an interesting contrast between the God of the Bible and the god of the Qu'ran:
"Husbands, love your wives..."
-Ephesians 5:25, the Bible, bold mine
-Ephesians 5:25, the Bible, bold mine
(Husbands), beat your wives..."
-Surah 4:34, the Qu'ran, bold mine
-Surah 4:34, the Qu'ran, bold mine
The contrast, it appears, is nothing short of the difference between good and...
EVIL!
*"Physical correction may be administered."
