I would yes, if more people apologised for others using various parts of their religion to carry out destruction I think it would help.
The reason Im so anti christianity is because of Bushes speech about using god to invade other lands It really put me off.
So I think religious peoples do have to stand up and speak about who ever is causing trouble within their groups.
I understand what you are saying I am not claiming all muslims are this way. But you would be suprised how common exremist views are.

Apologise for a convert of Islam using Islam as a reason to create terror.
Thats just my opinion of whats best. Obviously if most people feel that hes just a " lunatic" then well fine. But fundamentalist Islam exists WITHIN Islam. And they need to make it very clear if they behave this way - they are out!edit on 24-5-2013 by FreedomEntered because: (no reason given)

Why should 100 Imams make an official apology.... to anyone?
This logic is moronic as I pointed out previously.

Fundamentalist Christianity is within Christianity. You surely wouldn't ask every priest to apologise for IRA atrocities?

They are being reactionary. If this incident didn't happen, they wouldn't be doing the thing they are doing, they are reacting. Surely the perpetrators of such a disgusting incident weren't naive enough to think there wouldn't be consequences from the flip side of the coin. Radicals reacting against radicals. Perhaps if the government actually took ACTION on extremism in a major way, radicals would not feel the need for their own brand of action.

Or asking the US to apologise for GW Bush.edit on 24-5-2013 by OneManArmy because: (no reason given)
