There are other things that Christ didn't literally say (at least they're not literally written in the Bible) but let us not think as the protestants do and disregard tradition which was handed down to us by the apostles themselves who had received …
Guys, forgive me please, but let us not talk about religious authorities of other religions in general in such a bad way. I think this is unacceptable, you know very well that our priests are not infallible, and I'm sure none of us would like to see…
Remember those who rule over you, who have spoken the word of God to you, whose faith follow, considering the outcome of their conduct. (Hebrews 13:7)

bigeee, I understand you might have had some bad experiences with muslims, but I don't think it's right to think of them as all bad in general or to refer to them that way
