Don't confuse terrorism with Islam, says EU

[Hilarious Clinton 452]

No one here has EVER said every Muslim is a terrorist. And people that say that in the real world are rare, crazy and racist. But for some reason many terrorists are Muslim. Why? That's the question everyone avoids.

Nobody here says it, but there are plenty who believe it.

Wow. That is incredibly narrow minded. I think I now see where hate begins.

Why is it narrow minded to admit that there are small minded bigots in the world? I don't get it. Hate begins with those bigots, and it ends by educating them.

I don't see it as Muslim ###-kissing as much as taking some of the implied 'power' away from terrorists. When terrorists are referred to as Muslim Terrorists, there is an implied 'power' that their numbers are great, certainly much greater than in reality - a physiological 'power' which these monsters enjoy (and probably rely on).

Interesting point of view.

The problem is that not all Muslims are terrorists but most modern day terrorists are acting in the name of Islam. Unfortunately this paints a very bad picture for Islam.

At least the normal people within the Islamic community are now starting to speak up against others misusing the Koran to carry out atrocities.

Relax, I'm just taunting you.

1. A mosque is built in an American suburb. Non Muslim neighbors will possibly be suspicious. Not because of the 99.9% peaceful Muslims, but because of the possibility of the .1% violent Muslims worshiping there.

2. A Catholic church is built in an American suburb. Most neighbors will possibly be suspicious. Not because of the 99.9% harmless priests but because of the possibility of the .1% pedophile priests working there.

Two religious examples, neither based on race, but with similar outcomes. We live in the real world.

The proportion of people that think every Muslim is a terrorist as about the same as people that think every Christian is an abortion clinic bomber. They are a very small minority and have little if any credibility in the public mind.

The people that think all Muslims are terrorists are by definition idiots and cannot be educated. They should just be ignored.

Absoluty agree 100%.

Not in 100% agreement here though, everyone is fixable.

OMG...at least some reasonability. It is unfking believeble what i'm reading here. People were telling me in a Poll that I was sick since I seriously think that a child Molester had to be tortured and not only imprisoned. And here many people seem to put a stamp on a religion...this is crazy...

I didnt read Koran...but my best friend is a Muslim...she says that there is NOTHING in Islam teaching violence....it is actually vice-versa...and when I see people that told me in the other poll to be tolerant towards a child molester are accusing MUSLIMS on this thread...now THAT'S what i call sick

I challenge you to show me one post that proves that statement.

You misunderstood me. I wasn't implying people on here believed that. I'm simply stating that there are people who believe it, and I've met them. I was never trying to imply anyone posted such a comment on VJ.
