    "They are still gonna come after you"

    To do what? Circumcise you? Slam you down onto a prayer mat and force you to recite the Al-Fatihah?

    Puhleaase..., Chicken Little.

    I dislike malicious fundamentalists whether they are JW, Muslim, Baptist, etc. But I do not share in your unbridled prejudice towards a whole group of people. Such a delusory view is not very far from that of a racist who uses stereotypes to justify his hatred towards an entire community.

    You people are all utterly amazing in your apology toward the biggest cult in the world. Yes it is bigger and much badder than the Watchtower you dweebs whine about. Here's just a small bit of the news you people love to ignore....

    Why not invite a Mosque into your community? You could then ask your city council to institute Sharia Law so you will know what it's like to be Muslim. Then you can have a first hand experience and exercise your sensitivity, compassion and understanding of your new neighbors!

    Inquisitor,
    >Xian fundies target abortion clinics and funerals of dead soldiers. But they do more.
    Muslim extremists have killed over a million people in various attacks, suicide or non.
    >Who killed Matthew Shepard?
    Who beheaded Nick Berg, and the reporter in Pakistan? Who killed dozens of Iraqi children because they had accepted candy from U.S. Soldiers? Muslims are targeting other Muslims to prevent them from having a democratic government. You are an idiot to make comparisons between Christians and Muslims.
    >For whose favour is Bush clamoring by appealing TWICE for a constitutional ban on same-sex marriage?
    Who is trying to REDEFINE A WORD? 95% of gays do not stay monogamous! Where are gays safe, Muslim countries or western democracies?
    >The delusional representative of which religion made a passing threat of assassination to a South American president?
    What delusional president of Iran claimed that the Holocast did not happen and that Israel would be exterminated?
    >Why do so-called secular-thinking politicians oppose stem-cell research?
    What so called 'scientists' refuse to admit that adult stem cells lead to many more cures for illnesses?
    >Which group is trying to silence lessons on science and evolution by replacing it with Intelligent Design?
    Which group routinely silences all opposition by killing them?
    >None of these wrongs can compare with strapping yourself with dynamite and killing Israeli civilians. But don't trivialise the mistakes in your own backyard simply because there is something worse in someone else's.
    You are still clueless and misguided because you refuse to recognize the vast differences in the cultures of the two religions.
    >Christianity is no more a religion of peace than Islam. It depends on who's the spokesperson and what is his/her agenda.
    Christian teachings are NOTHING LIKE teachings in the Koran. Christian countries are NOTHING LIKE Islamic countries. Which groups of people in the Christian countries enjoy more freedom than anywhere else? Let's start with Gays, Minorities, Other religions, women, perverts of every stripe, abortionists, all criminals, displaced Canadians.....oops. LOL

    My post was not to make an apology for Islam. I do not trivialise the errors of her zealots as you have on the wrongs of fundamentalist Christianity. My aim was to highlight the fact that there are Muslims who challenge the dangerous fundamentalism in that religion, a fact that you seem to conveniently and consistently avoid. That such scholars, thinkers, reformers exist shows there are people in that religion who are rational and genuinely peace-loving. These Muslim pioneers are a minority and they need all the help they can get to persuade their fellow belivers, to redefine a new and evolving Shariah that is both socially, politically and religiously beneficial, to raise Islamic thought out of stagnation. Your scare-tactics and hate-mongering doesn't help in this process. In fact, it only seeks to do the opposite by alienating the Muslim community. Have you ever wondered if your efforts are actually aiding the terrorists or those who seek to oppose it?
    Not all Muslims who claim to be thinking individuals are hypocrites. For that kind of inconsistency, we only need to read up on your personal reflections.

    Liberalism is a mental illness.

    You are arguing from a conservative point of view to condemn conservative Muslims. You and conservative Muslims share a distaste for gays, for minority rights, for multiculturalism, for feminists etc. I'm surprised you have the gall to make a peep. Doesn't your speech strike you as self-contradictory? Stay away from diagnosing psychological disorders. You're sitting on the wrong chair in your therapy sessions.

    My apologies, Peaceful Pete

    I should not have gotten carried away with the debate, hijacking your thread. I think I've said more than enough. My thoughts on this subject are clear for all to see. I'll say no more in rebuttal. Time for ice-cream!!!

    I had a mate who said he was an extremest muslim at one time. One night we were all together at a club we used to attend on a regular basis. He came up with the idear the world would be a better place if the rubbish was gotten rid of in the world. The way he proposed this would happen is that Islamic nations should get nucleur weopons and tyears and haveing been taken as a immigrant for a better life here could say such rubbish. I went home and couldnt sleep the rest of the night. Barrry

    >Otoh it is by no means certain that it will. Cultural differences remain. Here advocating the death penalty is about as "politically incorrect" as racism, in the US it is definitely not the case, and in spite of a lot of communication across the pond I don't see that changing (either way) anytime soon.

    Are you really in France? I must say the government has taken a bold stance against the Islamists. Perhaps you libs are getting the picture that Islam is way more of a threat to secularism than Christianity is. But that is no surprise, Libs like to whine about giving other people their 'rights' until it infringes on the 'rights' of their own secular philosophy. LOL
