Are you talking about the Koran or The Book of Mormon?

there are some ignorant comments on this article. jihad does not mean holy war. if anyone has taken a college history or religion class they would know it means TO STRUGGLE FOR GODS WILL. They have also contributed alot to western society when the Moors invade Europe. They already had astronomy and brought over alot of science.

muslims, jews, and christians all have that 2 percent of each group that breeds hate. um the koran has the same prophets and angels as the bible. i have met many muslims that are good people. i have met many christians that flat out say they are christian and will lie, cheat, steal, and hurt you.

You didn't even have to read these comments to know the usual hate-filled racists would be engaging in their usual circle jerk. The Times-Herald must be SO proud!

Get your facts straight, first the Crusades were not Christian but an earthy religion like Islam called Catholic. Second the Holy Land is Israel which belongs to the Jews not Muslims. Read a Bible the Word of God not some teachings of a false prophet and anti-christ.

I am hoping for a day when Roman Catholics will have a welcoming day when they can ALSO talk about the CREATOR Jesus Christ! How would Six Flags feel about that?

I just wish that they in the Muslim group would take a stand to condemn the terrorists PUBLICLY. They have so far NOT done that. Until then, I will be VERY suspicious.

No, Islam and their followers ARE the enemy: here are quotes from the Koran itself:

(5:-51) Believers, take neither Jews nor Christians for your friends. They are friends with one another. Whoever of you seeks the friendship shall become one of their number. Allah does not guide the wrongdoers.

(4:56) Those that deny Our revelations We will burn in Hell-Fire. No sooner will their skins be consumed than We shall give them other skins, so that they may truly taste Our scourge.

Nice and peaceful, isn’t it? We are NOT talking about Christianity here, but the beast of ISLAM. The crusades were the west of old trying to rid themselves of the scourge we still live with. REMEMBER 911??? SOME of us get it, and more and more each and every day. Unfortunately for Openminded, you and those who think like you will most likely be the first to have their blood shed for being a non believer. Back to hell with Islam, and piss be upon their pedophile prophet mohammad; we WILL not let it take root here.

Too late re-tard, Islam is the enemy and full of hate. There is no room in the USA for Islam.

Bottom line, say no to religion.

organized religions are the cause of most of the intolerance and hate and violence in the world

the world would be a better place without any religion at all.

the only code that if followed would cure us of evil is to treat everyone as you yourself want to be treated, you know ... love thy neighbor as thyself!

it is simple really!

Just to point out something in your own post that you may not have noticed. But you say Muslims contributed a lot to western society when the Moors invaded Europe. Notice, they invaded Europe, by force. And made a lot of converts, also by force.
And, just curious, when was the last time you heard about a Christian or a Jew or a Hindu or a Budhist blowing up a bus or a market or a hotel?
In my opinion, if someone has hijacked Islam, regular Muslims had better take the hijackers down before the non-Mulsim world gets fed up and does it themselves.

A couple of other points about your points.
One, two percent of a billion Muslims is an aweful lot of homicidal maniacs.
And as for the Crusades, it's true the Christians set out to liberate the Holy Land from the Muslims, but they killed more Jews along the way than they ever killed Muslims.
And, two, for the most part, the Christians have gotten over their violent tendencies. They haven't forced anyone to convert or die for several centuries now.

So when are we going to see the white Christian day? I'm tired of everybody focusing on the separation of people versus what unites us. When are we going to be a country of our own. When will we be Americans first. Those non-merit factors of religion, ethnic, past nationalities, gender, sexual orientation dismissed or at least second place in the order of importance.

Reading the comments further emphasizes the need for more education around Islam. There is way too much misunderstanding of Islam. Thank you Vallejo-Times for posting this article. Hopefully some of the folks can reach out to "WHY ISLAM" or community members during such events not only to get a taste of their foodbut also see what Islam is REALLY ABOUT!!

Daily Horoscope for January 8

Sagittarius

You'll feel friendly with everyone you meet today, and you might even be lucky financially. Money should be coming in, but going out rather fast as well... Astral influences will keep you on your toes, and will probably make you flirtatious, but they could also make you moody. This makes it tricky for close relationships to run on an even keel. The truth is, perhaps you don't want too much closeness at the moment. Your partner probably knows that you're often like this, by now, anyway.
