Yes--there are blacks in every religion. Xenophobia (dislike/fear of foreigners) is actually a much more accurate term for the dislike that people have for Muslims--that is the Muslim faith is foreign to them so they fear or dislike it. For others its the fact that they believe it threatens Christianity. Far less often does it have anythign to do with race.

Read the news...I'm sure a lot of people started feeling leery of Muslims after 9-11 here in the U.S....and look at the daily carnage in Iraq...your own people are killing each other on a daily basis...if good Muslims like you would get together many, many more like you..and speak out agianst the radical Muslims...things could be different...

While I understand your concern, and agree with you that all Muslims are not terrorists, you must agree that terrorism in the name of what is written in the Qu'ran, and in the name of Allah, is a VERY serious issue facing the world today.

So as the world sees the "moderate" and even the "Westernized" Muslims ignoring this jihadi mentality, while still othe5rs openly support the jihad, it isn't very difficult for anyone to understand why the non-Muslim generalizes about Islam itself as the issue.

While you quote the Qu'ran accurately, and in context, there are Muslims who are using your initial quote in Mosques worldwide to show that the extremist jihad is commanded in the Qu'ran. Yet reasonable people, such as yourself, choose not to condemn Muslims for such blasphemy of your holy text, you instead choose to condemn those who will likely be the victims (and have already suffered losses) at the hands of those Muslims who believe they are acting in accordance with YOUR religion.

Why have you started this thread instead of starting a thread condemning Muslims who deliberately target and murder innocents in the name of your God?

Isn't that far more serious an issue than someone calling all Muslims terrorists?


As a Christian, I know I would be the first to take up arms against any organization which claims Christianity as their cause to murder innocents and claim that the Bible permits it in the name of My LORD.

Yet the PRIMARY complaint of Muslims is not against Muslims blaspheming the Qu'ran, but against those non-Muslims who decry the terrorism at the core of this alleged blasphemy.


So, you're not a terrorist? I can appreciate that.
But if you remain silent against the deliberate murder and oppression of non-Muslims in the name of Allah, then how are you really any better than a terrorist?

Perhaps if you read the above with an open mind, you will come to the realization that your silence against Muslim terrorism speaks FAR, FAR LOUDER than your complaint for being labeled a terrorist.

I intend to visit your site that you linked and (if I can without registering) I will search to find where you have lamented the blasphemy of the Qu'ran by these Islamo-Fascist terrorists.

I expect that I will find many threads started by you that condemns terrorism in the name of Allah.

right?

Hey, Mr. Knight
How about a response to this?

BTW, I visited your site and I did not see where you were called a terrorist. Got a link to the discussion area?

A fair point, but there are differences between Arabs and Israelis, somewhat.

no no no no.. you are silly to think such

Americans are war-mongering abrasive fools that want to spread their comsumerism empire...
Latinos just want to have passionate sex when not being just plain lazy...
French never bath, don't shave, are cowards, and eat cheese, while swinging from trees...
Catholics are mindless drones that jump whenever the Pope tells them to...
Native Americans will either savagely scalp you or be a wise old chief...
Asians are great at doing laundry... when not breaking bones or blocks...
People from the hills of the Southern US are backwards, and breed w/ their own kinfolk...
White boys can't play basketball...
Irish are potatoe eating, whiskey drinking drunks...
Arabs do nothing but pump oil and show their bellies when dancing...
English just drink tea, warm beer, and drive on wrong side of the road, thinking better than all others...
Muslims want to kill anything/everyone who don't think like them...
Cavemen are just dumb...



Yes, seriously, you are correct.

However, when those that are either more louder or more forceful in their attacks on others carry the day, then its up to the silent minority w/in that group to rise up, and correct their ways. As has been asked in previous post w/in this thread - where is the group of the Muslim leaders that denounce the ways of those that do nothing but stir violence and hatred?

This is somewhat confusing subject for many reasons.
I have never had a problem telling difference between Jews and Arabs ?.
I suppose in some cases , it may be hard , as it is with mixed race.
I am not speaking of religion , but of blood.
I could post a long list of people --photos --and ask the question ---Arab -- Jew--or other??, most folks familiar would have no problem recognizing who was who. Characteristics of race are there .
Not worth the effort.
If you didnt know who Jerrry Seinfield ---Barbara Striesand --Ariel Sharon--was, would you guess Arab? White? Black? or Cuban {Spanish} LOL! .
I suppose people are speaking of two subjects -- one racial --one religious.
Not really important , but when one says Jews are not a race , it doesn't make sense.
BTW , Knight is good people . That is all I have to say about that. >f

Yes, I do agree with you 100% , what you said is very well said, but what can a 17 year old student in Arizona do!? Please let me know if you can think of anything!

About the links on my site, I have a few on the home page, including: http://www.islamfortoday.com/terrorism.htm

and in my About me section on the main page:
Quote:
... I absolutely hate, from the bottom of my heart, Muslim terrorists. As a practicing Muslim, these terrorists are the scum of the earth, cowards, and heartless beasts that have the brain capacity of a savage and rabid animal. They make Muslims around the world, and Islam as a religion look as bad as they are. They are like parasites infecting a community of good people.

Tell me what do you think about your muslim brehtren in Pakistan and also educate them them about islam rather than preaching to the western audience whom I find more "intelligent and nice".
You're comparing 2 very different cultures side by side, which is a very hard thing to do.
