And what of similar passages in the Old Testiment? How should one interpret those? Should Jews also be watched suspiciously for animal sacrifices?

If the Jews start following them out like the Muslims have been, yes it would worry me. But they aren't. And the Muslims are.

Perhaps someday there will be a faction of Christians who take up arms in the name of their God against what they deem as false religions.

Perhaps someday, I'll be able to flap my arms and fly. Until then, I have to buy a plane ticket. When the Christians start doing that, I'll stand up and say "Rintense was right!". But I don't think that will happen.

Every weeks, innocent people die at the hands of Muslims in the name of their religion. And you say "But that's just a coincidence". How many have to die before we say "Maybe it isn't"?

I've been a Republican for 25 years. Everytime the Democrats take control of the government, they raise taxes. But you are going to tell me "That's just a coincidence. All Democrats don't support tax increases, just a few of them". So I guess this election, I'll be told to vote for the Democrats because they are just like the Republicans.

Pass.

Not all Muslims are!!! You are generalizing again. If your generalization is correct, then every Muslim in the US would be killing infidels.

No, what I AM saying is that you can not blame the actions of radical Muslims on all Muslims. You can not compare the actions of a few and label the majority. If that were true... *sigh* the comparisons are endless. And your comparison between this conversation and Republicans/Democrats is histrionic at best. If you equate your politics to your religion, good for you. I don't.
