No one likes it when his or her belief system is disparaged. I don't like it when Hollywood depicts Christ as lusting after Mary Magdalene, or of Christ as a homosexual. I know, however, that those slurs are false--and remain slurs.

The problem with Islam is that by its own teachings--it is violent. By the own history of what Muhammad did--he was a murderer, child rapist, and pedophile.

Every headline I read is about Islam spreading murder and mayhem today. When was the last time we read a headline about Islam feeding the hungry of another faith? How many Islamic countries are democracies? How many Islamic countries permit religious freedom?

Every headline I read is about Islam spreading murder and mayhem today.

What is scarier is the general reticent of the mainstream press (worldwide)
to mention Muslims as instigator and provacateurs of violence against any group
they consider "infidels"...even if it just seems to be sport for them.

For WEEKS, I read reports about the "rebel forces" in The Ivory Coast...
finally I accidentally found a three-paragraph article buried in the middle of the
Los Angeles Times that mentions (as an aside) that those "rebel forces" are
Muslims on the warpath against peaceable "infidels".

When the mainstream media WON'T tell you the ideology/philosophy of some "rebel" force...
don't be suprised if it's Muslims doing what they do best.

(with the few exceptions of places like Turkey...)

Yep. And the lack of outrage by the Islamic leaders regarding Terrorist action is deafening.

Stated superbly by another FReeper, weegee:

The war on terrorism means a war on Radical Islam but that should be of no concern to peaceful muslims and they should fully support such action. After all, we hear that Radical Islam is not true Islam but a false perversion of this peaceful religion. If that is true, then there should be no arguments about halting those who use terror and force to enslave people to a false religion.

Mohammed was not a man who was sensitive about any people other than muslims. Who needs him?
