I was just trying to point out that to say ALL Christian men are violent, just because a small number are, is as stupid as saying that ALL Muslims are violent or are terrorists or are extremists, just because some are. :)

I can't say I know enough about Islam to argue what the Koran says or doesn't say; you seem to know more about that subject than I do. But consider this;

If Islamic countries are so brutal and horrible, like you say they are (and in most cases I agree) then surely alot of the citizens living there (who were born into Islam) would want to leave and come live somewhere safer, like the UK or US, where they have more freedoms and protections? I know for a fact that there are alot of Muslims now living in the UK. Can't it be possible that these people just want to live a peaceful, non-violent life in a place that offers them the chance to do so? Alot of people are against unecessary violence, no matter what their religion tells them. Just the same way that most Christians ignore the parts of the Bible that tell them to murder homosexuals, or to cut somebody's hands off for stealing. Sure, at the time that the Bible or the Koran were written it might have been okay to do these kinds of things, but in the society we live in it isn't okay, so people, both Christian and Muslim, ignore these parts of their respective religious texts.

Peace.

Howdy GhostToker,

I understand what yer saying..and I appreciate your good response.

You are more right than you realize,there are muslim families that leave Saudi,every weekend,to go and have fun in places like Jordan,which got kinda crazy,because there ain't no speedlimits on the main roads and you have them passing ya at a hundred miles an hour,in their mercedes...lol. They git tired of having holy men,looking at them all week for violations of the koran,and many do emigrate to other countries that believe in individual rights and liberty,if they can afford it.

Have a good one !

heres a few more very interesting ones

Thanks for the link, colton. It's kinda chilling how people who do these things appear to be completely normal. And I guess in most respects they are normal, they just get driven to these acts for a cause they believe is right. :(

Hey Torog,

Exactly, man! So many Muslims are just normal, peaceful people. They wanna have a normal life, a family, a nice house and a car, and be able to go to their 'church' and pray to their God in peace, the same way everybody else can if they choose to. It's only a select few who want to kill anybody, and even fewer who actually do it. :)

Thanks Torog, it's been cool! :D

ghostoker, thats what i was trying to say, but i used much more anger in my posts.

This is really scary giving the president authority for a preemptive authority for a Nuclear strike against weapons of mass destruction? Umm, if I remember correctly we (the United States government) are not very good at finding which countries have banned weapons in the first place. This really scares me. If we were to nuke somebody in this day and age it will for sure come back around to us. I need to move. :mad:

No he can't. Only congress declares war president can only send troops over there. Click on that washingtonpost link that you quoted and read. This is not how it always has been.

Nuke em all! burn baby burn :p
