If Islam was a 'passive' religion, I'd have no problem with a mosque nearby. I doubt if I could have one in my neighboehood.
That being said, it is my understanding of Islam that they want to dominate the world.

I attend a Baptist church and I participate in door to door evangelism ... the Jehovah's witnesses engage in door to door evangelism, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints participate in door to door evangelism ... none of us have a hidden agenda .. we all, in our faith, believe we have something good to offer people that may not know or agree with us about our religions but we believe it is God's will to take the gospel to all the people of the earth. We send out missionaries to other country's and try to convert non-believers into believers.

We don't try to alter a country by our beliefs .. we try to convince people to see spiritual things in a different way than by thinking in a non- spiritual way.

Muslims have a different way of operating ... they move in and demand that we tolerate them.
They use our laws against us and make no effort to evangelize except to force themselves on us.

When I go door to door, I'm instructed to leave if I am asked to ... Muslims practice a sort of mass, in-your-face kind of proseletyzing ... they show up as a community, not a congregation and infiltrate the schools with their religion. They don't ask permission and they don't go away when asked to. They get the schools to install pro-Muslim programs and help fight to eliminate Jesus from the American consciousness.

I understand the freedom of religion clause and agree, but I don't ... no ... I can't see Islam as a religion of peace, as a religion dedicated to the betterment of man, but rather, a religion of dominance.

We, as Americans will always rise up against forced dominance ...

I can choose to leave my Baptist church and become a Muslim ... Muslims cannot leave Islam and become a Baptist ... not without being in fear for their lives.

Anyone that lives in a Muslim neighborhood and says the Muslim community is peaceful and nice people and that they reject their radical brother's actions have bought into, IMO, an insidious propaganda Geobbles would be proud of.

Where's the peace loving Muslim in FreeRepublic?

I know non-Muslims attempt on Muslim boards to engage in discourse as an effort to understand ... and yes ... evangelize.

I don't have any problem with the pig races, or political opposition to placement of mosques, or the volume of their call to prayer, etc.

But this "raze all mosques" talk is a recipe for a pogrom. I think it's important for us all to reject preemptive religious violence.
