Obviously this is not the message of the Bible, but serves as an example of the misuse that can (and does) occur.




Kind of funny, but when this self-same abuse of the Bible by using quotes to justify behaviour that clearly SMACKS of contradiction with the teachings of Christianity is applied to Muslim fundamentalists who do the same, that extremism is applied liberally with a broad stroke to all of Islam, despite the millions of Muslims who live in peaceful coexistence to the contrary of the spoutings of extremists (and who have about as much power to reel in extremists as the Pope does in reeling in Irish Catholic IRA bombers).
