Not all Moslems espouse the ideology of the Islamists like al Qaeda. Again, if religious freedom means anything, it is that people are free to practice their religion so long as it does not harm others. If individuals are engaged in fomenting or preparing violent acts of terrorism, then by all means, throw the book at them. Proscribing an entire religion is not narrowly-tailored.

And not every Nazi marched Jews into the extermination camps.

The fact is, the Mohammedan religion does not seperate church from state. It calls for Mohammedan law to be above all else.

A Mohammedan who doesn't follow the Koran really isn't a Mohammedan, and the Koran calls for the implementation of an Islamic state over all.

Your theory presumes islam to be a religion. It is a cult based on murder and intimidation with very few of your "Moslems" condemning attacks and murder on non-muslims. Maybe some of the Norwegians have figured this out in time to save their culture.

Only it doesn't show, does it? All we've seen from the Islamic community was silent agreement/approval of the atrocities perpetrated on the behalf of their religion.

Sure, they’ve never harmed a fly, even the Buddists are more aggressive...

They need to realize that, in the light of the recent events, they are not universally loved, and most of the normal people find mass murder of the innocents as the means of achieving any goal abhorrent.

What if one of the main tenents of their religion is expressly TO cause harm to others?

Except that their religion requires them to harm infidels, ie: all people that don't practice Islam and wont convert are to be killed. That would be me.

The first amendment doesn't authorize anybody to kill fellow citizens in the name of God. Any religion that commands it should be banned, and anybody that practices it should be expelled.

I agree with you completely. Violence, and conspiring to commit acts of violence, are already against the law. Running roughshod over the Bill of Rights isn't the way to preserve our liberties.

Double crapola. A "good" Muslim is one who hasn't yet killed you because he lacked either an opportunity or a weapon.

Nor a wide enought net--considering terrorism experts contention that most mosques harbor a small group of fanatics intent on beheading your children.

I am not for banning Islam, but if I were Norway, I would discourage or limit the immigration of practicing Muslims. Except for Turkey, which has its problems, what other Islamic democracy can you name? Islam is not compatible with democratic ideals and values. There is no separation between church and state. Every predominantly Muslim country I can think of has a Ministry of Religion.
