From the mouth of a peace-loving person

I have been following a conversation between a Muslim and a non-muslim on another website and found the following quotes from the Quran quite enlightening......(When it says people of the book it is referring to muslims.)

People of the Book, do not exaggerate in [practising] your religion and tell nothing except the Truth about God. Christ Jesus, the son of Mary, was merely God's messenger and His word which He cast into Mary, and a spirit [proceeding] from Him.

Believe in God [Alone] and His messengers, and do not say: 'Three!" Stopping [it] will be better for you. God is only One God; glory be to Him, beyond His having any son! He owns whatever is in Heaven and whatever is on Earth; God suffices as a Trustee, (XXIV)The Messiah would never disdain to be God's servant, nor would the angels who are closest. He will summon anyone to Him who disdains to worship Him and acts too proud [for it]. As for those who believe and perform honorable deeds, He will pay them their earnings and ad even more for them out of His bounty. He will punish those who are scornful and proud with painful torment; they will not find any sponsor themselves nor any supporter besides God. Mankind, proof has come to you from your Lord; We have sent a clear Light down to you. He will show those who believe in God and cling to Him, into mercy and bounty from Himself, and guide them along a Straight Road towards Himself

and

Those who say: "God is Christ, the son of Mary," disbelieve.

So there we have it. For those of you who were at 24/7 the other night and caught some of our conversation over coffee, this makes for interesting reading....
