He's also calling for "summary executions" of Muslims.
And Sprint wants all Mosques razed (to the ground).
Christianity: the religion of peace.
Here is a hint;
If you want to know what the religion of ISLAM 'is about', read the Koran and the Sunnah of Mohammed.

If you want to know what the concept of Christianity 'is about', read and study the contents of Bible.
Because it is futile, to try to work out what Christianity 'is about' by looking to Christian churches.....
When many/some of the Christian
clerics who 'manage' those Christian 'churches', have stated publicly, that they [the Christian clerics] don't even believe [or, doubt that] there is a God!!!
QUESTION;
Was Jesus [the 'prophet' of Christianity] a 'Christian'.
What did Jesus have to say about respect for God ?
Matthew 22:37
Jesus said.......Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
And does the Bible reveal what Christianity 'is about' ?
Yes it does.....
Matthew 4:17
From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.
Matthew 11:20
Then began he to upbraid the cities wherein most of his mighty works were done, because they repented not:
What about the rest of the Bible, what does it say about 'Christianity' ???
Isaiah 55:6
Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:
7 Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.
Ezekiel 18:31
Cast away from you all your transgressions, whereby ye have transgressed; and make you a new heart and a new spirit: for why will ye die, O house of Israel?
32 For I have no pleasure in the death of him that dieth, saith the Lord GOD: wherefore turn yourselves, and live ye.
Ezekiel 33:11
Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord GOD, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel?
Amos 5:4
For thus saith the LORD unto the house of Israel,
Seek ye me, and ye shall live:
Amos 5:14
Seek good, and not evil, that ye may live: and so the LORD, the God of hosts, shall be with you, as ye have spoken.
15 Hate the evil, and love the good, and establish judgment in the gate:.....
Zephaniah 2:3
Seek ye the LORD, all ye meek of the earth, which have wrought his judgment; seek righteousness, seek meekness: it may be ye shall be hid in the day of the LORD'S anger.
So the rest of the Bible, has the exact same message that Jesus gave, to mankind;
That men ought to recognise who they are, and, what the world is,
...and to turn away from this world, and turn towards their God.
This world, is a place where we are constantly challenged [and seduced] by our desires.
Don't be deceived by this world [i.e. don't deceive yourself].
Tell God, that you are sorry, for all of your errors, and for all of the poor choices, that you have made in this world.
So, love God.
And love God's righteousness.
And turn away from the lawlessness that many men 'follow after'.
Ecclesiastes 12:13
Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.
Luke 18:8
.....when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?
