Sorry,"Keith", I don't buy into the illusion you are trying to paint of Islam...

Islam donates to and helps Muslims - period. If you re-read your own little tale, even you should see the transparency.

I can't help you to see reality if you don't look. The continuing fallacy of Islamic atrocities are committed by a vast number of Muslims and the rest are complicit, involved, and cowed under the outwardly militant. When you learn to read and comment objectively , you wll see that. I think you do now. It is the way of Islam to set the stage from a faux peaceful front that gives way willingly to the militants.

The "peaceful" Islamic front always precedes the advancement of the militants and bows absolutely to it. It is a two pronged approach that adds up to "lie". I guess you haen't seen the demonstrations all over the planet inclding here that rage against Israel and promote militantcy at its worst. I haven't seen any Muslims demonstating the other way. Where are they "Keith"?

Where is this "majority" bubble that you allude to being "peaceful"? Why aren't they out there demonstrating against all those demonstrators who they so "vehemenly" oppose? Where are the ediorials denouncing the moral outrage of militant Islam? For all your comments on the atrocious acts "of a few" and the bad name they are giving Islam, where is the moral opposition besides sitting quietly at home giving millions of dollars to radial Islamic causes and waiting for the militant wing to intimidate them?

And, yes, for the record, I can blame Islam for what it produces - the lie first, followed by rage and hate.

When you dare to seek truth you will find it, but not within the words of Christ as distorted by Muhammad.

If you love God then learn his real identity.
