Dutch politician: If Mohammed were alive in the Netherlands today, I would propose he be tarred and feathered

[Hilarious Clinton 452]

Christianity changed 500 years ago and Islam has never changed.

Why do you think that might be?

I was going to ask you that question.

[Heracles 417]

Why do people think Islam is a violent religion? That's so ridiculous and ignorant and...I don't know. People have justified their violent actions with religion since, well, the beginning of religion. Guess who is violent? Angry mobs. Who are usually uneducated. Islam is having a violent moment. Guess what other religions have had violent moments? Christians are living in a glass house on this one, sorry.

Are you joking or just trying to be your usual self?

Why don't you ask the 1 million Armenians butchered the last century, yes the forgotten ones?

Why don't you ask all of the Jews living in fear on a daily basis?

Why don't you ask the mother's of the Chechnyan kids?

What is wrong with some of you people? One minute you sit here and claim the US should apologize for slavery because it was so so bad. The next day you are basically saying ###### happens, collateral damage, when it comes to Muslim influenced deaths. Yes that includes deliberate suicide bombings and killings of women and children, based on their race..

So let me get this straight in your Michael Moore liberal way:

Slavery = very very bad.

Killing people in the name of islam = ###### happens..

So then Christianity is to blame for all the black people killed by the KKK and for all the jews killed in the Holocaust as well?

Wake up and smell the coffee. Some people are just whacked and their religion has nothing to do with it. they hijack it to serve their own purpose.

Logical fallacy. It's not my fault if you create cause and effect relationships based solely on religion.

How many Christians support the KKK? How many condemn it?

How many Imams condemn what their brothers are doing around the world?? How many Muslims have come out and said your actions are against the teaching of Allah!!??

I was going to ask you that question.

I don't think 'religion' is the main reason - rather it has a lot to do with history, specifically the war-torn history of those countries.

[Sofiyya 1,687]

The Quran tells us why it was revealed in Arabic, for the part of the world that spoke Arabic needed a Message in the language spoken there so it could be easily transmitted and understood. It also tells us that it was transmitted in other languages, for the Message of submission to the Word of God is a universal one, not limited to any place and time, language or culture. It is as old as Adam, the first Prophet of God. Islam was not a new religion, delivered soley to the Arabs; it was a continuation of the Truth that was and is available to all.

As for our brothers and sisters in Judaism and Christianity, we have been instructed to know each other and not despise each other. One has free will and a choice to remain in a state of self-serving arrogance and ignorance, or to move toward enlightenment. That someone else has not done so is no excuse for you not doing so.

The hatred against Islam on display here is appalling, but one needs only to keep in mind that hatred isn't about fact, it's about providing comfort and superiority for the hater; their need to degrade someone else in order to feel good about oneself. They are the same as those they feel disgust for. People whose ignorance leads them to hate are to be pitied, and we are to approach them with kindness first.

Well what has Osama Bin Laden himself said his fight against the infidels is all about? It is not about an overpriced cable bill..

"No other movement, not even Fascism or Communism, has been so determined to conquer the world and rule with such rigid, detailed, complete control over the day-to-day activities of the lives of everyone on the planet. Islam has a multi-pronged plan in place to accomplish this goal, and it is being implemented with increasing success throughout the world. Islam seeks to make the rest of the world become just like it: squalid, backward, and primitive. "

If Islam has this sophisticated, elaborate multi-pronged plan to take over the world, how can it be at the same time backward and primitive?

So, your idea is that while most Christians are against the KKK, most Muslims are FOR terrorist acts being used against the US? Even American Muslims?

Hehe, they said both things about us, and even though it doesn't make a lot of sense, it still managed to galvanize quite a few communities into action

The truth

Interesting points there..

I bet you liked this one: Islam is not a religion "[...] Islam is a global movement, the goal of which is to bring every living human being on the planet under its crushing totalitarian rule, the likes of which has never before been seen. Some of Islam is obvious and easy to identify. Some of it, however, lies beneath the surface, like an iceberg. The true nature of Islam sports a remarkable disguise. "

Wow, that reminds me so much of things I've read about another group of people, written oh, 70 years ago. Try this video!: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xJYAK1PgUS4

You are so far off and so close at the same time.

"From early childhood, most Americans are taught that religion is a personal matter and not a subject of polite conversation (unless you know someone well enough to know that you will not tread on toes by having such a discussion). You learn that religion must be accorded "special handling," and that religion is "above criticism." By the time they reach adulthood, many people have developed a powerful aversion to regarding any religion as anything other than basically good. It goes like this: Religion is good; Islam is a religion; therefore, Islam is good.

Muslims exploit this Achilles heel in Americans."

Just replace Islam with Christianity, zip back about 500 years and you got there an historical truth.

Christianity changed 500 years ago and Islam has never changed. Good call Steven.t

Christianity also has more than 500 years on Islam, so what's your point?

You guys are really sickening. Indicting an entire religion of 1.6 billion people because of the acts of a tiny minority, who, in fact, are using religion as a completely invalid and non-existent excuse for their abhorrent behavior.

There is a difference between ideologies and implementation methods.

May sound tangential to you (but isn't): the Burmese military, for example, has very sophisticated (maybe not in comparison to US?) mil hardware, mostly from its northern neighbour China--but Burma's infrastructure is quite backward.

Nope. Christianity remains the same...only people are more enlightened (at least I hope they are).
