    Still not violent.

    http://www.kusa.com/acm_news.aspx?O...MPLATEID=0c76dce6-ac1f-02d8-0047-c589c01ca7bf

    What did the Buddhists do to make Islam want to kill them, I wonder?

    But still. Not violent.

    In our view yes, in their view no. People are different, people need to learn to deal with it.

    So we should accept it as a fact of life that they go into other countries and kill people and demand that their new country changes to Islam?

    I dont understand why violence should be related to ones faith...
    shouldn't it be more related to ones personal actions???

    If a man brutally rapes someone, i dont think it was becoz he's Islam but bcoz of his lust, don't you agree?

    If some terrorist guy goes to a foreign country and kills people, it's not bcoz he's Islam, else all Moslems would already start killing people. :eek:

    If someone would start shooting African Americans and you discover KKK related books in his appartment, would you make a connection between what he just read and his actions?

    You can't seem to understand that the news stories you watch on TV represents an extremely small percentage of the actual real world. You are ignorant of anything other than your own culture.

    You have probably never even got to know a muslim.

    Do you know how many muslims there are in the world? How many Americans are there?

    A recent discussion at Cambridge universuiy nearly caused an uproar after muslim scholars were asked about the quran and its murderous content.

    The answer was, What's wrong with killing pagans?
    Christians and Jews don't have to be afraid.

    Find out on the link below

    This argument is flawed. Do I have to know the NAZI culture before I can ask questions like why do they hate everyone? Why do they see genocide as a tool to 'help' the world? Does the media, TV, radio, movies portray them unrealistically?

    Should I ignore the Third Reich and its actions because it was a minority relative to the world, even just measuring over the time of just the 1900's?

    Do I need to know a NAZI, do I have to watch one kill, do I have to join up and read their doctrine, do I have to kill for them, before I realize the world is better off without them?

    Nice try but 'Nazi' refers to a political/military movement and 'muslim' refers to a religion.

    The very fact that you think the phrase Nazi and Muslim are comparable shows you ignorance.

    Nazi's were Christians - so do you think all Cristians are violent? By your logic, you should do.

    I love this.

    How about this:

    Do Christians gas nuns?

    Was Hilter a follower of the bible, or the occult?

    Did the Nazi's toss out everything about Christianity from the bible to create their own religion they claimed was better than Christianity?

    Did the Nazi's redesigned a Christ character as their religion's head that was NON-Jewish?

    Nazism is its own religion.

    You clearly are an ignoramus.

    You can't seem to understand that the news stories you watch on TV represents an extremely small percentage of the actual real world. You are ignorant of anything other than your own culture.

    You are young or stupid.
