OK!


What you "believe", in a religious context, has nothing to do with whether we would get on or not.

Muslim doesn't = terrorist!

Terrorist= Terrorist, their religion is not relevant!

pls allow me to correct u a little true. i live in bangladesh, a country of almost 150 million people. almost 90% of them are muslims. nobody really here has a problem of living as a 'moderate' or 'liberal' muslim. By the way, the definition of moderate and liberal are not the same everywhere. i guess it is also worth mentioning that bangladesh has been a democracy for more than 21 years and in this 20 year period of time, both the prime minister and the leader of the opposition in parliament have be WOMEN.cheers

illu_66: But only because the western media says so. The IRA were pretty extreme in their day, yet we're not all "anti Catholic"

NO true religion (of which I follow NONE), espouses this kind of thing. It's just a shame that these people have to hide behind A belief structure as a means of justifying their actions.
I am not disagreeing with you.There are many truely religious people,including muslims who detest whats going on.Many innocent muslims have been slaughtered by there own,hiding behind religion.

Remember all the people in the world . . . . . don't have the same religion . . . . . Some belive in nothing at all.. - - - - But Every single P e r s o n has the same rights after they've been born - to live the best life, they can - -


Without harming the one next to you.. . . No matter who that one is.. - We are all brothers and sisters - remember that . . . . .

It is the missleading leaders - who are the bad guys...... the ones that want "you" to take a weapon in your hand and harm - your brothers and sisters - who are the worsed leaders.. . .

It's called missleading people....... Please there are no need at all for harming anybody - anywhere - no need at all!!


And it certainly not leads to peace .. and wellness



Most people....... just want to live in peace and harmony..... No matter how - they name their God..... Please show respect - please Try to understand that..... And the whole world will be a better and safer place, for all of us!


Why has evrything changed so much ? Where have the love between men and women gone ? Why are evryone so egoistical - nowadays ?



Me, me - and more me - and what can YOU do for Meeeee? . . . A good living - is what we all wants - but we never get for real - living in a world - where only money counts !



And we only want to participate - when we are being entertained - watching industrial made entertainment of evry kind !



My God - what is this ! Can you give me an answer ? No he can't...



The real thing - is unique - only one of a kind. Be one of a kind - be the one you where ment to be, become YOU !! And be the one that wants to be loved! - - . . . . By your giving !

I couldn't agree with the highlighted part more.

However, I had that murdered governor in mind when I was making the point about it difficult for Muslim's to be moderate. And also you don't see many female Muslim clerics around and the ones that there are sound incredibly similar to the men, even opposing the role of women in government.

Bangladesh has been having trouble with the extremists of late too - so even the cherrypicked Muslim nation is hardly whiter than white.

It never was about religion. It was about nationalism. And still continues to this day. Religion only determined your nationality in N.I.

I know quite a few Muslims espec through work and they are delightful people. Very charismatic, espec the guys.

I think there is a better appreciation world-wide than you perhaps realise that terrorists are a small minority of Muslims. There are plenty of terrorists groups that aren't Muslim too of course - terrorists aren't a new phenomenon, unfortunately.

I wouldn't say I don't like christians, muslims or people of any faith. But I am wary of people who display what I would call excessive or incredible claims about their religion, particularly people who claim god talks to them.
This is because not too long ago a dear friend of mine (a christian and a very kind and gentle man) was confronted by someone who claimed god spoke to him. The confrontation and subsequent attack was completely unprovoked, but during the attack my friend was stabbed repeatedly and had his head severed which was then dumped in a wheelie bin.
Of course in court his attacker claimed god told him to do it. So you can maybe understand why I'm just a tad suspicious of people who make these kind of claims, especially if they live in close proximity to me as this attacker lived next door to my friend.

Love thy neighbour????

Having been brought up in a multicultural environment among ppl of any religion,culture,beliefs,skin color etc I've always cared about attitude ,brains,manners,education and behaviours more than anything else.Had friends of any religion and even partners.Not a problem.Actually quite the opposite.You can learn lots of different things and see how many similarities there are among them.
And strangely most religions have 1 thing in common:
limiting your freedoms to somebody else's advantage.

No , dont worry nobody with a brain would think badly of you just because you are a Muslim.cheers
