ryoder 1,384 #8 January 14, 2015 The Daily Show had a good segment on this last night: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=huBbd0HS2qI"There are only three things of value: younger women, faster airplanes, and bigger crocodiles" - Arthur Jones. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

While that's true Muslims must realize that their religion is being hi-jacked by extremists. I think the world needs to see the religion as a whole taking action not just stating condemnation. I don't know the internal structure of the religion. Is there a leader like the catholic pope?Please don't dent the planet.

I don't know the internal structure of the religion. Is there a leader like the catholic pope? There is no equivalent in islam, there is also different "genres" in islam like christianity got catholics, protestants ect but we still just bunch them all up as one muslim group and many like to talk about it like they are all cousins. (1,5 billion of them). Had a brief talk with a muslim guy a few months ago about this and from his point of view we (most westerners) sound a bit ignorant when we refer to muslims as one world group. I think situations like this really emphases this. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lawrocket 3 #12 January 14, 2015 turtlespeed******Moderate Muslims speak up on a regular basis, regardless of what the Daily Mail or Fox news say. This.If that is so, why does it get so little coverage? Because CNN and MSNBC don't want to offend the more extreme Muslims. So they just stay out of it, preferring to focus on things that are ACTUALLY going to kill us all soon. Like global warming. My wife is hotter than your wife.

wmw999 2,122 #14 January 14, 2015 Man, it's great to be a white Christian. We don't have to be extra good and articulate so no one thinks we're a hoodrat from the 'hood. We don't have to be gracious when asked to show our papers proving we're not illegal. We don't have to loudly condemn radical Islamists that we've never met and would never associate with. We can just get on with our business, and assume that most people will figure that we're just getting on with our business.

lawrocket 3 #15 January 14, 2015 Quoteit's great to be a white Christian. In the US. But in other parts of the world, being a Christian, regardless of skin color, is cause for a swift and painful death. Even those assholes at Westboro have limited themselves to being assholes. You are bringing up some first world problems. Third world problems are coming over to the first world. I've never met a radical muslim. I've met loads of moderate muslims - truly nice and likable folks. We ALL condemn the radical muslims because they are worthy of condemnation. My wife is hotter than your wife.
