This is one group of people following Islam.

There's an awful lot of misunderstanding of Islam going on by scripturally educated Muslims and Muslim countries. An awful lot.

Islam is the most misunderstood and misinterpreted religion in the world.

All religions are guilty of mayhem,the Spanish Inquisition,witch burning,and the Old Testament is full of smiting and people getting stoned.And not stoned in the fun sense.I don't believe all Muslims behave this way,and it's up to them to change the way some of their faith behave.
I'm not in any way justifying what is done by fundamentalists,it's horrible.

And while you are digging the ditch of Moral Equivalence do not forget the Crusades.

Or the afghan and Irak wars.

Don't you DARE compare Muslims to christians they are polar opposites. True Christians are all about love and forgiveness. WE do NOT condemn or hurt anybody because of their sins. We just gently try to show them their wrongs.

Tell that to american sexworkers, who have no legal protection and get misused by criminals, because of the loving christians, not condemning them, but gently trying to show them to be wrong.

The Westboro Baptists and Warren Jeff's Bunch would stone sinners if they could get away with it.

I'm not familiar with Warren Jeff, but the Westboro Baptists are a disgrace to Christ and His ministry.

Islam is the enemy of Christianity, They pretend to love others but deep down they are just sinners.

And by your standards, Christianity is the enemy of all things that are not explicitly Christian. You, as a Christian, are also a sinner, for all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of god. So stop throwing stones.

You condemn people. You do not seem to be preaching a message of love and forgiveness.

Meet the new Taliban. Same as the old Taliban.

Most of the tribal leaders over there actually support signing the pact with the US for extending our training and protection services for an extended period of time. That should tell you that there has been some progress, at least.

And before some people start using the word incorrectly, sharia law only means law based on scripture, not some sort of well defined anti-woman, anti-Christian agenda. There are plenty of people in the western hemishpere that want their country to have no laws that are contrary to or not based on scripture.

This does not seem very tolerant.
And I don't think we are going to be out of Afghanistan any time soon.

Sharia (initially defined in Q 45:18 as "the way") means law based on the Qu'ran and the Hadith, as established by the Montesquieu of Islam, Al-Shafi‘i. The Qu'ran and the Hadith both have well defined anti-Women, anti-Christian agendas... not to mention anti-Jewish, anti-Homosexual, anti-Atheist and anti-Freedom agendas.

The Sufis seem pretty easy going.I like the way they spin.I went to a gathering to celebrate Rumi and they were drinking a wonderful pomegranate liquor.The host was from Iran and he had a great collection of figs growing in his yard.Another time there was an outdoor event and everyone was in a circle and we were chanting something about Allah and a truck load of Arkansas locals drove by,boy did they stare,I just about doubled over laughing.They were practically hanging out the window gawking.Got the same reactiom when I went to an outdoor Buddhist event that was blessing the land,lots of monks and nuns in the traditional robes,lots of locals driving by gawking.They think it's a cult and call them the Bhuddams :lol:
