It should be some friends and I, not, "me and some friends." Remove the some friends part, does it sound correct if you say, "me am having an argument?" Christ, where do you people learn to speak this way? :roll:
Blow it out your ass. I actually normally have impeccable grammar. Notice that my punctuation and spelling are always flawless. I never mix up they're, their, and there. The only - and I mean absolutely only - mistake I ever make is mixing that up.

Relax, this is typical behavior. In his natural habitat religious threads are an intrusion to his space, like an unopened Christmas gift is to a Christmas tree. He is forced by God (at lightning point) to open this mysterious package that does not belong to him. When the contents of the package that does not belong to him do not comply with his Christmas wishes, he is compelled to right an angry letter to Santa expressing his resentment. The reason for his anger is multiplied by the fact that Santa does not exist (even though he already knew this), and therefore does not reply to his letters. This results in an increasing level of hatred towards Santa until objective case pronouns start to attack him in his cave. As a result of this elevated threat level, he starts to attack every other unopened Christmas gift around him until his scent has been properly distributed.

If only people would see that he is acting in self-defense.

Then said Jesus unto him, Put up again thy sword into his place: for all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword.
?Matthew 26:52

Doesn't seem to suggest that Jesus was into slaying.

This seems to apply to soldiers and police:

Romans 13:3-4 and also verses 5, 6, and 7:
3 For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise of the same:
4 For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath upon him that doeth evil.
5 Wherefore ye must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but also for conscience sake.
6 For for this cause pay ye tribute also: for they are God's ministers, attending continually upon this very thing.
7 Render therefore to all their dues: tribute to whom tribute is due; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honour to whom honour.

It's not fair? No. . .it's not even logical. If you were to make a comparison between Christianity and Islam it would be closer to something like Allah is to God as Mohammed is to Jesus.

Mohammed was the prophet of Allah. Jesus was the son of God. You are comparing apples to oranges if you start comparing what Mohammed does to what God does.

I thought Jesus was a prophet of Allah as well.

Yes. Allah is just the Arabic word for God (the English word). Yahweh/Jehovah is the Hebrew name, Dios is the Spanish name, etc.

Since basically God == Allah, yes you could say that I suppose. But then you'd be mixing up your religious icons. And it's not totally accurate as Jesus was the "Son of God" but Mohammed was not the son of Allah, but his prophet.

Muslims believe Jesus was not the son of God, because God is one and he has no equals, sons, daughters, mothers or fathers. They believe he was a man and was one of God's Prophets, like Moses, Abraham, Noah, etc.

I'm just going by the discussions I had with a Muslim I used to work with. As I understood it there have been many prophets, but Mohammed is the most important one.

I believe it's in the book of Exodus, God instructed the descendants of the Levi family to kill everybody, including family and friends. More than 3,000 were slain.
