this might sound common bt i am really interested to know the pros and cons about the two relgions. i mean, i am a chrstian but i disagree some of chrstianty's rles and principles but what makes me love my relgion is the principle of loving yor enemy as yo love yourself. isn't it that only religion in this world which promotes love for the enemies is chrtianity? correct me if im wrong.
however, thee are also mslim tradtions which i admire, such as the way they commnicate with their God, their hmbleness and ther extreme piety.
what about you?

i dont think religion is a subject to be compared to find out which one is better. i think its more that which will suit you.
today many statement or news that say, moslem are terrorist or Islam teach violent just because some Arabs blow a bomb. though Islam raised in Arab and Koran written in Arabian, it doesnt mean the Arab culture or tradition is Islam culture or tradition too.
for instance, in Egypt or Turk there is a dance called belly dancing. according to Islam that kinda dance is forbidden, coz it show aurat. but since it come from countries that moslem population is majority, many think Islam permit it.
so if you want to know bout Islam, I suggest to read Koran and hadith shahih rather than watch television or read newspaper. coz comparing Islam with Arabians tradition is not a good way to know Islam.
if you read Koran you will know that Islam doesnt teach violent, Islam teach many aspect of human behaviour, like justice, love, etc.

hey, i dont remember saying those things in my posts. would you mind reading it again? Please don't put words on my mouth. Im just comparing the pros and cons and im asking this community to react about the good and bad things about their religion. I didnt even say that Moslems are terrorists?! Hello?! :(

no, i never mean that you're saying that. what i mean is there're many statements that say moslem are terrorist. it can create opinion that Islam teach violent and make others who dont know about Islam to think like that also.
