The difference I see is that you hold a belief that all Muslims are committed to doing YOU (generic) harm and you wish all to be eradicated (again generic) from the population of the United States. I do not.
If I have misunderstood your comments, please explain.
Yes, sir. You have misunderstood me a little. Perhaps I have not made myself clear.
I do NOT believe that all muslims want to do us harm. Nor do I believe they are all bad. I believe their religion is inherently violent, oppressive and misogynistic. I believe it is a satanic death cult, but that it does not appear so to them.
Nor do I want muslims eradicated from the population of the United States. I don't want them eradicated from anywhere. I just don't want their evil, murderous death-cult witewashed as something benign.
Where Muslims bear arms against innocent unarmed people, I want them swatted down and swatted down hard. That's the extent of it. I would feel the same if anyone of any religion were doing it. But no religion calls for this like Islam does.
And, no, I have not brought my concerns to my Muslim friends. For the life of me, I don't know how to do that. How would you do it? What would you say to me if I were a good friend to you, and yet professed my faith in a religion that named you as a low-life infidel who must be oppressed or killed if you refuse to convert to my religion?
P.S. The Muslims do this wherever they know they can get away with it. They know they cannot do it in America. Not yet anyway. But Islam is the fastest growing religion in America. Perhaps they will get their way and you and I will die together at their hands. Or perhaps our children will die together. Or (God forbid!) my grandchildren will convert to Islam and kill yours.
Peace be with you, sir.

Re: your friends. We must have a different definition of friends vs. acquaintances. I have many acquaintances, but I only "trust" my friends. It doesn't sound like you have "trust" that at some point your 3 Muslim friends won't do you harm.
And regards your view that you can separate the person from their religion (the person practicing the religion is OK and you wish no harm to them...the religion is bad), I disagree--but NOT the way some may think.
I think perhaps you are attaching the 'religion' to those who have bastardized the religion for their own political gain. Terrorists are "practicing Muslims" ergo the religion of Muslim is evil and bad. MY view is that terrorists have compromised and bastardized the religion which does NOT equate to the religion of Muslim being evil and bad.
I suggest that you peruse this website re: Logical Answers to Non-Muslims
It seems to be one of the most straight forward websites attempting to answer questions. I know that many will say that it is all LIES by Muslims wishing to delude us. I disagree, from what I have read.
P.S. Justshe is not a he....but a she. :-)
