I have to respectfully disagree. I know lots of Muslims and they aren't like these homicidal weirdos at all. I do think the root of Indonesia's problems are not religious but economic. Face it, Muslims and Christians have gotten along very nicely in Indonesia for hundreds of years. Why would there suddenly be violence? The only thing that has changed is that the economy has tanked in a way that has never been seen in all history. It went from Asian tiger economy with everyone employed and everyone happy they didn't go the commie route like those fools in vietnam did, to one of the world's worst economies, the zaire of asia. This is an incredible shame. And once the economy tanked, there were suddenly all these religious turf wars that have little to do with religion and everything to do with money.

I know Moslems too that are peaceful or at least I think they are peaceful, but it is because of their inherent goodness, and in spite of their warrior mentality religion.

Now that I have read Mohammed's history, I will never understand how anyone can consider him anything but a pedophile, warrior, murderer, slave owner, and oppressor of women.

I would have to respectfully disagree,too.(At least its respectful!)Im not very wealthy but I have not slaughtered my neighbors.Point is the majority of the muslims between the ages of,say,10 and 30 are taught to hate.They are doing this in the name of God.If the innocent muslims wont standup and say Enough!!,they are just as gulity in my eyes.And I have lived in the middle east.I have seen that mindset.
