"Thinking like a Christian means alot more than doing what the Bible says; it also means thinking like the Bible thinks, even about things the Bible doesn't mention." - J. Budziszewski

Myth: We use only 10 percent of our brains.
Fact: Physicians and comedians alike, including Jerry Seinfeld, love to cite this one. It's sometimes erroneously credited to Albert Einstein. But MRI scans, PET scans and other imaging studies show no dormant areas of the brain, and even viewing individual neurons or cells reveals no inactive areas, the new paper points out. Metabolic studies of how brain cells process chemicals show no nonfunctioning areas. The myth probably originated with self-improvement hucksters in the early 1900s who wanted to convince people that they had yet not reached their full potential, Carroll figures. It also doesn't jibe with the fact that our other organs run at full tilt.
The following are direct quotes from the Quran and the Hadith:
Quran 4:89: "They (infidels) desire that you should disbelieve as they
have disbelieved, so that you might be (all) alike; therefore take not
from among them friends until they fly (their homes) in Allah's way; but
if they turn back, then seize them and kill them wherever you find them,
and take not from among them a friend or a helper."
Quran 8:12: "Instill terror into the hearts of the unbelievers;"
Quran 2:191: "... kill the disbelievers wherever we find them …"
Quran 22:19-22: "… for them (the unbelievers) garments of fire shall be
cut and there shall be poured over their heads boiling water whereby
whatever is in their bowels and skin shall be dissolved and they will be
punished with hooked iron rods."
Quran 8:12: "Your Lord inspired the angels with the message: 'I will
terrorize the unbelievers. Therefore smite them on their necks and every
joint and incapacitate them. Strike off their heads and cut off each of
their fingers and toes.'"
Quran 8:7: "Allah wished to confirm the truth by His words: 'Wipe the
infidels out to the last.'"
