If Islam truly is a religion of peace, then there should exist some proof
somewhere that someone can bring forward to demonstrate it. Where is it?
Why can we find no hard evidence of Islamic mainstream printed statements of
love toward Jews? Why can we find no hard evidence of Islamic mainstream
printed statements of kindness and mercy toward infidels? Why can we find
no hard evidence of Islamic mainstream printed statements that people
everywhere should be free to believe in whatever religion they choose?

Instead, when we examine the documented record of printed statements by
mainstream Islamic newspapers, what do we find?

We find that the overwhelming majority of mainstream Islamic media call for
Islam to dominate the earth.

We find that the overwhelming majority of mainstream Islamic media call for
the violent death of all infidels.

We find that the overwhelming majority of mainstream Islamic media call for
the genocidal mass murder of the Jews.

We find that the overwhelming majority of mainstream Islamic media call the
Jews 'relatives of pigs and monkeys.'

If Islam is a religion of peace, where is the hard evidence to prove it?

Why can we not find printed statements in the Islamic mainstream media
praising Jews, no matter how hard we look.

Why can we never discover printed statements in the Islamic mainstream media
which praise infidels and assert the human rights of infidels everywhere in
the world?

Why is that whenever a mainstream Islamic power figure speaks out about
human rights, it's always to say the sort of thing that Iran's ambassador to
the United Nations said?

"Human rights is a Western concept. We in Islam do not share that belief."
-- Iranian Ambassador to the United Nations.

Where is the hard evidence that Islam is a religion of peace?

Show it to me.

Show me the passages in the Qur'an praising Jews.

Show me the passages in the Qur'an advocating mercy and tolerance for
infidels.

Show me the passages in the Qur'an proposing that women are equal to men.

Show me the passages in the Qur'an which decry sexual exploitation of women.

Show me the passages in the Qur'an deporing the murder and torture of
infidels.

Christianity is a religion of peace because we can cite many passages from
the Bible which advocate mercy and tolerance even for those who refuse to
believe in Christinaity.

We can cite many passages which decry the sexual exploitation of women. We
can cite many passages in the Bible deploring the murder and torture of
people who refused to believe that Jesus Christ was Lord.

Buddhism is a religion of peace because we can cite many sutras which
advocate mercy and toelrance. We can cite many sturas which decry the sexual
exploitation of women. We can cite many sutras which abhor the murder and
torture of unbelievers.

Where are the equivalent passages in the Qur'an?

Have they been hidden?

Did someone mislay them?

Were they accidentally left out in all the editions of the Qur'an translated
into English?

If there is hard evidence that Islam is a religion of peace, show it us --
let us see it.

Where is it? Where is the proof?

When we sweep away the name-calling and meaningless vague speculations and
huge cloudy claims and examine the hard evidence, what does the hard
evidence tell us about Islam?

What does the preponderance of the avalable evidence about Islam tell us
beyond a reasonable doubt?

If you claim Islam is a religion of peace, prove it. Show me the hard
evidence.

Where is it?

Why can no one find it?

There is no proof that Islam is a religion of peace. No hard evidence. No
documented facts. Nothing but rumors and tall tales and idle speculation and
vague fatuous statements based on nothing but fantasy.

So why should anyone believe that Islam is a religion of peace without
proof?

If you want us to believe Islam is a religion of peace, show me the proof.

Give me the evidence.

Put up or shut up.

Give me the hard evidence proving that all the thousands upon thousands upon
thousands upon thousands of printed documented statements by the mainstream
Islamic press screaming "Kill the Jews!" and "Death to infidels!" and "Islam
must conquer the earth!" represent a minority viewpoint in the Islamic
world.

Show me the hard evidence.
