I always thought of Islam as a religion more like Buddhism.

I never dreamed that the leader was a pedophile, slave holder, torturor, warrior, etc.

My Christian faith is not as strong as I would like, but when you compare the leaders of these two religions, it makes me believe more than ever in Jesus and his teachings.

I don't believe we should ignore the teachings of their leader.

I am sure there are many Moslems that don't advocate in the terrorist tactics of the last few days, but we should be aware of the tenets of this religion. I am hoping that some of these Moslems re-evaluate their faith in this religion.

I have friends that are Moslems, but I plan to follow Reagan's excellent advice: "Trust but Verify".

No offense, but you must know almost nothing about Buddhism to make a statement like that.
