The "Ask the Imam" approval of slavery was from a year ago. Islam is the only current religion that endorses it. Name one -- ONE -- religious group larger than 1 million that endorses violence as a means toits end.
As for the treatment of women, you are right..
Yes, I am. But really, that isn't the crux of my stance anyway.
As for much of what is written about Islam on those websites in terms of violence and holy war, it is complete nonsense.
Really? Then why is virtually every major conflict in the world Islam-driven? In one of the links I supplied is the number of Islamic attacks
If Islam really did preach death to all those who didn't agree with it and this worldwide jihad it would not be the worldest fastest growing religion.
Logical fallacy on multiple levels: Begging the Question and Non Sequiter. I can make a stronger argument that it is growing because of Jihad. The entire Islamic world is poverty-striken. You cannot name a single major manufacturer of anything in that world. They use poverty as a stick then use Islam as a carrot to bring the ignorant to their cause.
I hate to say it to you but ignorant rants about islam will do nothing to solve your problems or the problem of Islamic jihadists.
Closing your eyes to the real enemy will merely result in our death. If we dealt with the Japanese and Germans in WWII, we would be speaking Japanense in the West and Germans in the East.
Admiral Halsey basically said the only ay to win the war in the pacific is to make sure all adherents of the religion of the Emperor (shinto?) practice their faith in Hell. We must do the same if we are to win.
