The branch of Islam which is a cult of hate, suicide, death and destruction teches their children to call Jews pigs.
What is your excuse for using this term to describe Israeli citizens as pigs?
Most of your posts I've read say much of nothing and are so general and vague, it's as if you're fearful to relate to people from a place of
rationality. What gives?
To address your cross-sectional slander of "Islam".
I have known many Muslims in my life. Been to Mosques when invited by Muslim friends, dated a couple Muslim girls, etc.
Most I have known never speak badly about other religions. In fact, many of them feel this itself is a "Sin". Most feel the same way about racism. I
knew a Muslim who said a racist comment while we were talking, and he looked as if he had said the worst thing in the world. He looked as if the world
was going to end , and he kept saying "Allah forgive me, I should not have said that." to me.
Most Muslims I have spoken to, who are practicing Muslims, feel that all religions have a place in the world, and respect all the "Books from the
Sky", as they call it. They feel Jews and Christians and Hindus alike will "see Paradise". Most Muslims I have known can also outdo most Christians
in a Biblical debate, because they read the Bible also, with Emphasis on the "Torrah".
These are the people that admire Jesus. These are people that cannot prosthyletize, because it is forbidden in Islam. Ever been to a mosque? Many have
donation centers where they have canned goods and clothes for the poor. In fact, it is one of the "5 Pillars of Islam", they must do this.
Islam on it's face is one of the most inclusive Religions I've seen in my life. And I am a former comparative Religion person, with emphasis on
Hebraic and Greek translation of the Bible. And I don't necessarily look on "Religion" as a positive nowadays.
(There was a day when I believed in "Religion")
Being that I have come to the Taoist and Buddhist PHILOSOPHY more and more, and am coming closer to the reality of "Consciousness' , I see the folly
and chaos Religion causes as it's own collective Egoic energy. So I have no 'side' to choose from. There is nothing but danger in collective Egos
and human 'belief' , like Religion, Politics, and such.
Human minds create these concepts and fantasies about what is "Truth", none can ever really be debated to an end. There are 'facts' though. Facts
are not open to interpretation. The Sun exists, water is more dense than air, diamonds can cut glass, birds have wings, chickens lay eggs.
So your CONCEPTS about Islam can be contested with my concept and evidence. And my evidence tells me that you are missing an entire population of
Muslims (The majority of them) who do not fit in that notion you have of them.
So the question is, who told you these things? Did you experience this yourself? And are the "Muslims" you see on TV (the extreme kind who I
wouldn't really call Muslims at all), are they your only exposure?
