Not to mention the justification I remember the koran saying this, that it was every mans duty to kill an infedel and that Christians should have thier heads cut off. I'm pretty cetain about that, and that it never mentioned having to have been provoked.

For them to conquer the world and put everyone under shariah law it requires them to be the aggressors.
Granted I have only breezed through it in a single class, but I am pretty sure what you state here is false. I cant say for certain, but it doesnt sound right... when I get home from work Ill take a look into my Qur'an and see if I can find what you are referencing to. Its possible it was just a poor translation, or misunderstanding.

I have a few questions about Islam So I was just watching a program called "God's Warriors" on CNN, and the reporter referred to some followers of Islam as "Moslims", something I've heard many times before. So why is it that when referring to followers of Islam I hear the terms "Moslim", "Muslim", and "Islamic"? Is there a difference between the three? Also I was curious if anybody knows the Qur'an's official policy on Jihad, smiting infidels, who qualifies as an "infidel", and treatment of women. I once heard a quote from Rating: 5
