LOL....This debate is hilarious.
The OVERWHELMING majority of Muslims are peaceful people. Now yes there are some very strongly worded things concerning violence in their religious beliefs. MOST Muslims simply choose to not follow those aspects of it. Its no different than Christianity though. There is plenty of stuff in the bible that is pretty much considered to be b.s. even by Christians these days. They choose not to pay attention to those aspects of it. (The Bible also calls for women to be subservient to men). This belief that "all Muslims are evil" is based on FEAR and a lack of understanding. Now with that said....Yes alot of them are friggin insane and wacko, and those ones should be disposed of. However Makkede is also correct when she says that we have to try to build a bridge towards peace with the majority of the Muslim world in order to win over the rest of them that DONT hate us. My personal opinion is that we should just leave them alone and stay away from them. They dont want us on their lands, and we dont really want to be over there aside from oil purposes and our friendship with Israel. Oh well though, I already know that Pluribus and Eleanor will somehow take my words and try to insist that I am somehow a traitor and a terrorist lover because I believe that peaceful tactics are more useful than military ones in THIS instance. (not in every instance btw)

I suggest less FOXNEWS, or any of Murdoch's media, and less Bushie Kool-Aid. This War On Terror™ is just a trumped up avenue for corporations to get huge government contracts. Say...what ever happened to all those color-coded terrorist threats we saw when Bush was in trouble against Kerry? They've disappeared since December, 2004, haven't they?

I was actually wondering about that myself as well. Im not going to call it a conspiracy or anything, but yeah the news definitely doesnt display them anymore as far as I can tell. Maybe the govt figured that since it was overdone that it had lost its effectiveness and they should only post them when there is actually a significant threat. Who knows.

Why is everyone so eager to avoid the subject of Christianity? I am simply saying that there are negative things in the Bible, as in the Quran, yet everyone seems to disregard this fact and focus on Islam bashing.
