164 - "It doesn't matter if you like the religion or not. The point is, in this country, as long as you aren't hurting anyone or breaking any laws, you're free to practice your religion. Whether m87339 likes it or not."

Practicing jihad is breaking our laws, therefore, being both a good muslim and a good American is not possible. You must let one of them slip.

"Practicing jihad is breaking our laws..."

Jihad has different meanings. To some, it's the struggle within oneself against the forces of evil. The struggle to remain close to God.
To others, it's used as a synonym for 'holy war'.

Newsflash.....not all muslims in this country are involved in a holy war against everyone else in the country. To you, that must mean they've "slipped". So be it. Think of them as 'slipped' muslims, if you like. To me, they're moderates, traditional, secular. And they have the right to practice their religion.
