Nope. One person caused me to open my eyes.
I have been diligently searching for møøselimbs that don't either actively or tacitly support terrorism ever since.
I have found a few. Very few.
Oh, and the 19 møøselimbs that murdered over 3000 of my fellow countrymen had a bit to do with it, too...
I have found a few. Very few.
Before Sept. 11th, and shortly after, I worked with a Muslim who was (and probably still is) one of the nicest people I've ever met. However, I've had a similar experience as you, null and void. Since that horrible day, I wanted to believe that MOST Muslims are like my former co-worker. I've searched in vain for a large group of Muslims that would roundly condemn 9/11, and not give some "excuse" for it.
What I've found through my own search of their religion is that the co-worker I had over 3 years ago is probably the EXCEPTION, not the rule, to what a Muslim man is like. Indeed, I now see letting one person form my opinion of 1.2 billion others was quite wrong, but not for the reaons you think, ScarTissue.
