3 of the more militant muslims, after I ridiculed them for their stance that the Jews did it. They immediately changed in their demeanor and became overly friendly to me. It was all too phony. After that there isnt a muslim that I trust.

Well, some are pretty brainwashed by some of those ignorant imams.

Still, here is a story I heard. An Arab mom came to the public school and told her child's teacher (an Arab Christian) that at the Mosque they were mean to the kids and taught them to hate. As a mother she didn't like her child being taught all this hate. The Muslim mom even said that in the Christian Sunday schools they teach love. She wanted her child to be taught love. She worried that if her child was taught hatred instead of love that he would leave his Muslim faith. She is probably right. Hatred is very powerful, but normal people, that is to say most people, go for love.

So for those of you who really believe in God's love for all mankind, try to show it on this forum once in a while. Because people are watching and evaluating you as Christians and deciples of Jesus. And if you are Christians with a lot of hatred for Muslims, calling them snotty names like dish-rag heads, ass-holes, etc. you aren't winning friends and influencing people. And we all want to be little evangelists, right? Right? That may not mean converting the world's Muslims, but it could mean showing them love and tolerance.

Not Osama and his crew, of course. Nobody said we had to be suckers.
