We have quite obviously all been subjected to less than accurate representations of our histories.

So how do we get to know what truth is?
We must talk to one another and get to know one another and disregard history and build on what we know in the present.

I want to hear the refutations.

Please try to see it all the way through, the end piece is especially important for all of us wishing to belong to God and His covenant.
It is long but I did watch the link above all the way through, and it was longer.
I am having a hard time seeing where islam is anything other than a religion of hate (or how it is possibly from our Creator)
... not all the people who call themselves muslim, but the religion they consider themselves to be part of.

Interestingly what God had on my heart as I was going to sleep last night was just this...
How do muslims define evil?  Do they have a teaching about evil?  What to them is the source of evil?

How do you define evil... Will we see what evil really is, or allow ourselves to be blinded and sidelined by other things?
I had just read this;

"His gift for spreading discord and enmity is great.  We can fight it only by showing an equally strong bond of friendship and trust"

(You might be surprised at the source of the reading.)  Would anyone like to take a guess at who it is referring to when it says 'His gift for spreading discord and enmity is great'?

I realized what God was awakening in my soul was that, this is the matter that is at hand, and that which we need to be discussing... it is the one that should concern all Jews, Christians, muslims... all people...
What is evil?  It is not about who we are, it is about how we treat one another.  It is about what we see as evil, and can we see it when it is right in front of us, even amongst ourselves.

12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth
15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;

How easy it is for the powers of darkness to mislead.
We should not be warring with one another but with those powers, those forces, that want us to war with one another.
Until we... all of us... try to see all sides, recognize the real evil, the powers and forces that want us to war with one another, that seek to keep us divided instead of united, there will be no peace, and the evil one who currently rules this world will continue to rule.  Could it be that God awaits our awakening, waits for us to finally see Truth and Love, in order that this problem may be solved?  Does 'God' try to help us to evolve?

Salaam,
