"Islam is a FALSE RELIGION. IT DOES NOT CONTAIN GOD'S LAWS THE TEN COMMANDMENTS. THEREFORE ITS PRACTICE IS AN OFFENCE TO GOD.

...To claim islam is a religion of peace is a total lie. The koran is a hate book filled with messages of killing and oppression. Islamic treatment of women and animals is despicable,barbaric and offensive to true believers ie.Christians..."

What on earth are you talking about?
Do you even KNOW what you're talking about?
Do you even know ANYTHING about Islam...?.

Whoever told you that Islam doesn't contain "your" Ten Commandments was definitely trying to make a fool out of you (which he/she probably succeeded in doing). But then again, who on earth (or even heaven or hell) said that for a religion to be "CORRECT" it has to have the Ten Commandments? Who are you to start assuming things about God and what God says is a religion and what not?
Before you start making such statements in the future I would suggest you open some books. This is actually for your own sake, so that you don't make a fool out of yourself anymore.

This is a very delicate topic, and I'd like to believe that people would, at least, get well informed before making a post about something like that. I DO concur with you that not all scientists and actors and "important people" are muslims. This is a fact. But you should know that at the time Europe was still living in the dark ages (talk about barbaric) Muslims were pioneering the scientific scene. Know your history. This is, like I said, history, so it doesn't really relate to the modern life a lot. BUT that does not mean that there are no muslim scientists.
