Most Muslims are extremists & the few Muslims that are not extremists, are tolerant of the extremist majority. Is that more clear? I believe that we are in a death struggle with Islamic fascism. This evil must be fought with every resource available.

However, for you to imply that every single individual who calls himself a Muslim is is a murdering jihadist, is ludicrous. There are millions of secular Muslims in nations such as Turkey that practice Islam the way the French practice Catholicism.

You can't be a member of any religion and be secular. The definition of secular means nonreligious. I suggest you look up the definition.

According to Merriam-Webster:

religion: "a personal set or institutionalized system of religious attitudes, beliefs, and practices"

secular: "1) a : of or relating to the worldly or temporal b : not overtly or specifically religious" I suggest you relax and have a Merry Christmas. And please partake in the religious aspects of the holiday such, as attending services, as well as the secular customs such as gift giving. PEACE

I'm not implying anything. A Muslim is stating the goal of Islam is to rule the world as Nazis intended from the 1920's to the end of WWII. You obviously did not read the article in the link I provided to you in post #29. The article was based on a Syrian born Islamic Scholar named Bassam Tibi. In the article he stated the following: "According to Tibi, the quest of converting the entire world to Islam is an immutable fixture of the Muslim worldview." I'm not implying anything.

That definition of religion is anathema to the definition of Secular per The Merriram Webster Dictionary . not bound by monastic vows or rules; specifically : of, relating to, or forming clergy not belonging to a religious order or congregation" The Communist Soviet Union was a secularist country specifically because it did not permit the practicing of any religion. In January of 2004 The Workers Communist party We must stop the Islamists' assault on secularism vowed to fight Islamists from preventing the banning of religious symbols in schools and workplaces throughout Europe. I suggest you read these articles.

It is unfortunate many Americans refuse to accept Islam is a danger as was Nazism during WWII. Those who ignore history are condemned to repeat it.

Despite this harsh reality, I still hope you enjoy your Christmas.
