the G-man said:
But is that because the tenets of Christianity are not followed correctly or is it, as some claim with Islam, that the tenets demand violence against the "non-believers"?




I do not believe the tenets have been followed correctly in regards to conversions.

Again, I quote 2 Timothy 2:24,25

    24 But a slave of the Lord does not need to fight, but needs to be gentle toward all, qualified to teach, keeping himself restrained under evil, 25 instructing with mildness those not favorably disposed; as perhaps God may give them repentance leading to an accurate knowledge of truth.


It speaks out against violent preaching methods and encourages peaceful methods.

If Jesus wanted forced conversions, why did he instruct his disciples to go door to door teaching, and if somebody didn't want the message to just walk away?

Mark 6:10

    10 Further, he said to them: “Wherever YOU enter into a home, stay there until YOU go out of that place. 11 And wherever a place will not receive YOU nor hear YOU, on going out from there shake off the dirt that is beneath YOUR feet for a witness to them.
