"In your eyes, we should be seen as soldiers on the front lines of the war against totalitarianism - instead you see us as the enemy."

40% of british muslims want sharia law. That's because the rest are liars.They want sharia law with special privileges for muslims over any other nationality/race/religion.

When a journalist in my country went to a mosque, he heard stuff like "christians are beasts".

That mosque was a "normal" one, not a terrorist one, or the Finsbury mosque.

In my life I met some muslims superficially, men, women and I had to deal with them. ALL OF THEM (A-L-L) were arrogant, behaving in superior manner, looking at us (the infidels) from high. I don't think they were all terrorists. But they are unpleasant. It wasn't only myself to get this impression. Other people felt the same, other immigrants too.

There is a huge RACIST and SUPREMACIST problem. Once it was called KKK, or nazism, now it's called islam.

You cannot deny (and if you do, you are a liar) that in every muslim country it's THE PEOPLE are FOSTERING the HATRED against non-muslims. STOP BLAMING YOUR CORRUPTED GOVERNMENTS! it's YOU AS A PEOPLE.

The hand that rocks the cradle is the hand that rules the world, if mothers and fathers educated muslim children that the non-muslims aren't INFERIOR, the world would be a better place. No government or school can touch what you teach in your children's hearts!

Problem is YOU ARE TEACHING YOUR CHILDREN THAT NON-MUSLIMS DESERVE TO DIE or to be under sharia.

I heard TERRIBLE STORIES on how half a dozen christian people are persecuted in a small village in turkey, how a former muslim family converted to christianity and lives in hiding, they lost the job, their daughter will never marry, they are considered dirty and worth of violence.

And it's not a TINY MINORITY OF FANATICS harassing them, it's the WHOLE VILLAGE!!!

What are you doing for that SAFRAZ?

We are spending $$$ on sensitivity training to accomodate muslims, WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN MUSLIM COUNTRY NOT TO MURDER ANYMORE CHRISTIANS?

"Not only that, but you minimize the great scientific and artistic achievements of Islam by arguing that they were stolen. That is as shameful and as bigotted as an argument as I have ever heard. What civilization in history started from scratch? The essence of civilization is its ability to learn from what came before and build on it. And that is what the Islamic civilizations did. They redisovered the lost knowledge of the Greeks and the ancient Indians, and built on this."

no SAFRAZ. I descend from the greek-roman civilization. As you can see we say GREEK-ROMAN, because we always acknowledge who came before us.

With islam YOU NEVER ACKNOWLEDGE.

Am I wrong or clerics in EGYPT WOULD GLADLY DESTROY THE PYRAMIDS BECAUSE BUILT BEFORE ISLAM?

AM I WRONG? I THINK I REMEMBER PRETTY WELL.

Everywhere you went, you tried to destroy what was good of the previous civilization. ANATOLIA WAS FULL OF GREEK HISTORY, that ALMOST DISAPPEARED, THANKS TO MUSLIMS.

" I have studied the Bible since I was a child and have studied it throughout high school in a formal sense, and informally ever since. I know there are many violent verses in the BIble that are susceptible to misinterpretation "

If I had a penny for all the times I WROTE THIS I'd be a millionaire.

The koran is the immutable word of god. THe bible is written by man with inspiration from god

do you understand the difference SAFRAZ? at the MADRASSA HAVE THEY TAUGHT YOU THIS DIFFERENCE?

The bible can CARRY WHATEVER PASSAGE, WE KNOW THE BIBLE IS NOT TO BE FOLLOWED LITERALLY.

SECONDLY, we always had the CHURCH to interpret the bible. Call it corruption but WE PREFER THIS WAY. The church modernized, made amends with the past and now we have a reliable INTERPRETATION, that's OK WITH MODERN TIMES.

DO YOU KNOW THAT THE CHURCH ISSUED A STATEMENT THAT GAY PEOPLE ARE SON OF GOD TOO and DAMNED WHO IS VIOLENT AGAINST THEM?

DO YOU HAVE ONE OF YOUR MUSLIM CLERICS SAYING THE SAME SAFRAZ?

THAT'S BECAUSE THE BIBLE CAN SAY WHATEVER IT WANTS, BUT THE CHURCH THOUGHT BETTER!

OUR RELIGION CAN MODERNIZE and probably other religions too. YOU RELIGION IS STUCK in 7th century arabia. GOT IT?

"You judge the Islamic civilizations as if they existed today in the modern world. You fail to judge them with their peers, if if you did that, their greatness would be clear to see."

there is NO GREATNESS in KICKING OUT ALL NON-MUSLIMS FROM NORTH AFRICA, ANATOLIA etc.

NO GREATNESS!
