Another laughable assertion one reads frequently, which has a lot to do with the misconception above, when one thinks about it.
So why don't you Muslims in ME become Jews? It would be much easier, there would be no conflicts and no wars. I mean if Jews are not going to hell then convert to Judaism for the sake of peace. Come on, be a jew.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
