Attitudes towards Muslims in America

[san diego 407]

This is the stupidest question I ever seen on VJ. How can anyone like or dislike someone based on religion?? Terrible wording. I answered I do not care.

I agree with previous posters, especially JustBob:

1) What % of terrorists are not muslim??

2) If you consider 9/11: while only few participated, vast majority and crowds on the streets of the muslim world cheered. Is this normal? Is this a sign of well-adjusted society??

3) If you take terrorist acts on US soil, or Russia, or Europe or Israel, how many of them are not muslim-related?? 1 out of 100??

4) If you ask on muslim country streets if they like americans, how many of them will answer "yes"?

If you answered the questions above, tell me if there is a reason for a judeo-christian individual sympathize with Muslims??

Like the sex life, religion is a very personal thing.

The easiest way not to make religion of a person an issue is for the person not to make religion an issue. If I meet somebody and we interact like normal people and the person doesn't look like a Muslim, doesn't preach like a Muslim, doesn't behave like a Muslim, and doesn't shove their Muslim religion into my face, there is no reason for me to even think about that person's religion, even if it's Islam.

I'm absolutely sure that I have met with Muslims, Jews, Christians and Mormons many times without knowing what their religion is, nor did I find the urge to inquire. You would never know what my religion is, if I have one, because I keep it to myself. If anybody did the same, Muslims who are in the U.S. included, why would we even bring their religion up?

Why is this thread still open?

Completely 100% agree with JustBob. I have various friends including muslims. I am an atheist myself. However, my friends who are muslims never stick their religion in my face. It is like with sexual preferences: I have nothing against gay people. I just don't like gay parades....

Maybe the Gecko can start a similar poll about the British, the Canadians, and the Filipinos.

No, no, yes

These 2 responses are on opposite sides of the spectrum. Kinda weird.

Not really. What I mean is:

1) You cannot "Like" someone base on religion. It does not matter.

2) I do not blame people for having animosity to Muslim world.

Those do not contrudict each other. Personally, I do not care about the religion. But as JustBob stated, when someone starts sticking religion into my face I do not like it. Just like I do not care about sexual orientation but I do not like gay parades. Same thing.

Which man is at fault?

The man who gave out the punishment?

He is the Judge (Qazi) who is supposed to know the religion better than anyone or you make and jack a Qazi and then whole town follows his ideals.

If the Judge knows the religion so well why is Saudi living with kings and a royal family in charge of the people?

I'm confused by the title "Attitudes towards Muslims in America."

Does it mean:

"Attitudes towards Muslims" in America

or

Attitudes towards "Muslims in America"

????

You could start another poll. Or, you could review the genesis of the poll here: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/331518-herman-cain-jumps-to-top-of-gop-primary-poll-beats-perry/page__view__findpost__p__4922789
