You might be correct or maybe just a tad insensitive.
First of all Christians and Jews do not go into Muslim country's and announce a 9/11 Jihad. In fact you are in grave danger in those countries if you proclaim any other faith than ISLAM.
Our country is based on the principles of Judeo-Christian thelogy, no where have we ever based our country by any Islamic principles.
Before 9/11 Muslims had every right in the world here to own there own business, make tons of money in the height of Technology and go to our schools, and the thanks we have gotten is our throats cut. Our soldiers are dying daily in Iraq in the name of ISLAM.
I am sorry I am sick and tired of americans always hving to be tolerant, forget it. I don't beleive in violence twoards anyone, but I sure the heck do not want to hear a call to a Muslim Prayer which is founded on violence over our american air-waves.

Take your bigotry elsewhere.

Last time I checked, they still had that right.

Those who paint all Muslims (friend and foe alike) are just doing the bidding of Al Queda--perpetuating a clash of civilizations and legitimizing Bin Laden's call for Muslims to hate the West.

Irrational venting is not the way to win against terror.

WHy not? They broadcast christian servicews and other stuff over some airwaves - and many so-called christians have also engaged in violence, such as Abortion Clinic bombings, murders etc...

I don't believe those people represent all christians in this country, and I don't believe that islamic fundamentalist terrorists represent all Muslims in this country - but according to your view, if a number of religious adherents resort to violence, then it invalidates the whole of the religion. That means, according to you, Christianity is ALSO invalid, and should be stopped. Right?

"Our country is based on the principles of Judeo-Christian."

Our country has always been based on the principles of freedom of speech, thought, religion, association...freedom.

To make the claim that our country was based on the principles of Judeo-Christianity would be making the argument that our country was founded on the principles of religious intolerance, which as we all know, is the absolute end result of any government based on strict theocratic principles.

[Natural Law]

You are way off base here. Any government that can deny the free exercise of religion to one group can do it to any other. As a Catholic who has lived in the Baptist Bible Belt I am keenly aware of this. Just as the supreme court has affirmed that it is unpopular that needs protection, it is the minority and unpopular religions need protection. That is precisely why the freedom of religion was enumerated in the bill of rights.

[Two-Bits]

Right on!!! It is amazing how people seem to forget 9/11. It is Islam that has stated this war not us. I do not call Islam a religion when it is a right to kill innocent men, women, and children all in the name of allah.

Tolerance, hell no.
