Well, some Christians do. Because we aren't Christian.

Muslims don't bother me. Neither do Christians. As long as the Muslims aren't flying planes into buildings and trying to blow up races and as long as the Christians aren't blowing up Federal Buildings or abortion clinics, I'm fine with them.

Out of the big three religions, the Jews are the only ones who haven't just snapped and killed a lot of people for disagreeing with them. I like them best.

Excuze me?


The three major monotheistic religions, Christianity, Islam and Judaism. I don't believe that Jews ever went after people and killed them in the name of religion, did they? If so, I don't recall being taught that.

Depending on what you mean by "Islamic country", DR Afghanistan?

Their behaviour on their own territory in the recent years is far from perfect, I would say.

There you go, youve just answered your own question, all you need to do now is find out own controls the media, go on, just Google it, then you will know who is behind the world hating Muslims, its the same with all wars, the first world war for instance, as soon as the Balfour Declaration was announced and they wanted America to join the war, all these stories about the evil Hun cutting off babies hands and corpse factories melting people down for soap came out in the media, ensuring the common folk would be stirred up enough to go and sacrifice themselves in a war, just like they do today in the Middle Eastern Wars, if the folk weren't told that Islam is evil and needs to be destroyed, folk might not want to join the Army.
Do a bit more research and maybe you will wonder if these "terrorist" you feel ashamed of, are not Muslims at all, but actually just the same people as the media folk who want to ensure their anti-Islam agenda is believed.


As for bashing the Bible, sure bash Christians, most are just Sun Worshipers at heart, but the Bible is also a Holy book to Muslims, maybe you just dont understand it?

For instance, your contradiction about seeing God, the scripture about no man can see God and live is a literal quote that the power of God is so immense that to look at it would physically destroy us, just like in the film Forbidden Planet were they had to look in a mirror to see the power of the machines, whereas the scripture about if you see Jesus, you have seen God, doesnt mean Jesus is God so that you have seen him, it means he is representing God to such a perfect extent, that if you see Jesus, you will know God because Jesus is acting exactly as his Father would.

Majority muslim countries with secular liberal governments.

Long time example: Turkey.

Newer example: Kazahkistan (former Soviet Republic).

Tunisia is struggling down the road in that direction as we speak.
Like you said other countries like Iran might follow suit as the mass gets critical.

But that's about their country not about their religion. Killing in a war over your country is one thing, killing because you don't like how somebody worships is another.

To: Salad

you're getting the kiss of death from Nambo.

He happens to be a Holocaust denier, and an apologist for Hitler.


So you might prefer your opponents to a having fringe ally like him!

Lol!

Just giving you a heads up.

How many Christians have hijacked a commercial air flight and crashed the plane into a tall building filled with innocent folks?

Answer: 0.

Now how many Muslims have done such a deed? Answer 11 on 9/11/2001.

how many christians fantasize lustfully about conquering every nation on the map? lost count. id say 90%.

how many christians have committed genocide on aboriginals/indigenous peoples?? lost count as well

9/11 is a water balloon fight compared to history's real tragedies, it's just that americans blow their suffering way out of proportion to make everyone feel sorry for them. I am not affected by crocodile tears and can distinguish the terrorist from the terrorized. Americans seem to have nothing better to do than ponder which country should they invade next, or which country should we nuke next. In my public school that i went to most of the students seems desensitized to war and carnage and casually discussed the prospect of invading and nuking countries. ive heard this from americans in schools, online, here on Wrongplanet (*cough* Teqilla *cough*), on the news, etc. when will your savage desire to spread carnage be quenched?? as they say, terrorism is the poor man's war and war is the rich man's terrorism. being a first world country seems to justify everything, doesn't it?? a terrorist by any other name is just as heinous.

honestly, no one gives a damn about you or what you like. they dress better and more dignified than these sexually provocative obscene strippers here in America. What's wrong with modesty?? apparently modesty is so last century and obscenity and lewdness is the newest trend, aren't i correct?

wearing burqa and niqab is not required, it's something extra that women can choose to do if they want. what's wrong if a woman chooses to wear that on her own free will?

i see nothing wrong with dressing dignified, but apparently most perverted men are disappointed

The Jews are going after the palestinians. I am not from palestine .... i am from Iraq and we used to host palestenian refugees. I hear very much that Jews are intelligent and in control. That they not neccesarily have went after a people like Hitler did against the jews. But the Jews has gone into a zone, settled there without right (and every one knows that zion is fraud and has nothing with secularism to do) and became stationary and fought with the arabs about the land. Everyone knows that Israel is UAS watchdog in the arabic territory.

edit: and that USA use israel to fight against islam and arabs.

Now come on, that's nonsense. It's probably less accurate than the "every Muslim is an enemy of free speech" tripe that gets spouted by the Islamophobes.

In any case, 9/11 had a more powerful effect on 21st century Westerners than the Crusades or some such did. 9/11 was both historically and culturally local. It happened to people that Westerners can identify with. That increased its emotional impact and thus the emotional reactions to it. I'm not saying that's morally right, I'm just saying that's why 21st century Westerners are more likely to associate Muslims with evil than Christians with evil.
