Well, I don't think you can prove to me that Islam is not the true religion of God, Chuck Norris. Tongue

But if they should repent, establish prayer, and give zakah, let them [go] on their way. Indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Merciful."(At-Tawbah 9:5)
peaceful my ass!

If you read from the beginning of the chapter (Surah At-Tauba), from the first verse to the fifth verse, you will know that there is a historical background to the verse that you quoted. It is speaking about an event that happened at a specific time and a specific place. Therefore, it is not a command which is to be applied for all times and all places. In the first verse of chapter 9, it says that there is a treaty between the Muslims and the Mushriks (or polytheists) of Mecca who used to persecute the Muslims. And the precondition for the Muslims to engage in a war against them is only if they break the treaty. This is the reason why the verse was revealed to the Prophet (pbuh) - i.e. to kill them wherever you find them - because it enabled the Muslims to defend themselves against the constant persecution from the hostile, pagan tribes of Mecca.

Could you dare to tell me what is the punishment for apostacy?

The punishment for apostasy in Islam is death (if they say it publicly).
But at least the punishment might save them from burning in Hell for eternity, which is infinity times worse than getting killed. Smile
