    They are? That's news to me? Most Christians accept you for who you are, no matter what. Some might not like it, and some might not agree with it, but "anti-gay"? That is more of a personal decision than a decree from Christianity.


    More like a thousand.

    By my count that small minority is about 197,645,496 (that's almost 200 million people).

    I just combined the populations of those countries whose government as policy and or law mandates violence against homosexuals.

    That minority accounts for 3.25% of the worlds population. I guess that qualifies as a minority.

    I'm defending the huge majority that are as peacefull as you or me. Terrorism disgusts me as much as it does you but you are judging person X by the actions of person Y.

    200 million. Get real. Judge individual people by their actions and not whole countries by the state of their politics.

    Iraq is at war so all Iraqis are violent - great analysis. Apply some ration to your points at least.

    Ive grown up surrounded by Muslims. You simply are prejudice against muslims.

    Please explain to me why on what basis you are judging one billion people based on the actions of a few thousand and on a book that you are taking literally when most muslims follow it like a Christian follows the bible?

    They follow manipulating imams. The majority of muslims can't read and write.

    Bullshit! I have Turkish friends offline. Don't tell me that crap. I don't care who you grew up around. Islam is evil. Not Muslims in general, but the ideology behind their belief is. If you can't comprehend the difference, you should spend your time arguing with 14 year old girls on MySpace. Seems to be your niveau.

    So muslims are ok but you just have an issue with Quran? If this is the case then you should have said so - we actually agree.

    Sorry about the misunderstanding, you should have been more clear.

    You seem to assume stuff. It's not the people I have a problem with. However, if they follow an ideology like Islam, it's hard for me to trust Muslims I don't personally know. Islam is like some virus going around, some get infected, some are full blown ;)

    I have a bunch of Muslim friends, but they don't follow the "true teachings of Islam."

    If the Islamists come to power, my "Islam-Light" buddies will all be executed as heretics.

    When you are talking about Muslims maybe you should just say 'extreme Muslims' or violent Muslims to indicate that you are referring to those that actually have the extreme views that you dislike.

    :)

    At least acknowledge that most Muslims have nothing to do with foreign policy/terrorism/Christian-bashing. They are just people like me or you living a regular life. Here in the UK, most dont pray, many eat pork and many get drunk, a few get drunk with me:cool:

    Phrases like 'Muslims are evil' can only be taken as prejudice, even if you dont mean it.

    Anyway, PEACE

    Peace to you too bro. But saying extreme Muslims should be replaced with "true Muslims". Not the ones who say they are Muslims for the lack of a personal choice to make. :) (remember? they don't tolerate individuality in Islam)

    What about the "sleepers" aren't many you consider passive not a time bomb?
    The only thing for muslims who want to have peace and practise it is to leave their religion, or be with the quran.

    Your muslim is different from my muslim. I'm defending the British muslims that I share a society with, 3% of 60,000,000. You are talking about the Muslims on TV.

    muslim this muslim that

    I believe that Muslims act differently in countries such as Holland and the UK than they would if they were amongst other Muslims in a Muslim nation. You can't read someone's heart.

    Those are some pretty hardcore views. Why do you feel this way?
