Honey, Bashing people, For real and drawing blood, not just with words, for what they did or didn't believe is what the history of most organised religions has been about.

I know this. But I'm not going to do the same just because millions before me defeated the purpose of what they stood for. I don't like being blamed for things I myself haven't done. And though I don't like it, I know that nothing is going to change.
PS: Please don't call me "honey"


That's noble of you but doesn't really address the OPs question or refute the majority of the answers.

Sorry for being patronizing. your post came across as naive and self-righteous.


I'm not being self righteous and I'm sorry you think I'm being naive I didn't post to start an argument but it seems everyone who has a different opinion gets criticized these days. I believe killing for what you believe in is stupid regardless of who does it. I just think it's a shame that people of any group, be it a race, nationality or religion, get blamed for things they haven't done but for what a small group people from said race, nationality or religion has done. I don't think that's being self righteous at all. And I'm not attacking anyone so I don't see why that is a problem for you.


No problem. don't care really. But as I said. Telling us all that people should be nice to each other and other advice from the land of care-a-lot is all well and good. But as I said I don't think it answers the OP's question. But whatever. Just because I fail to see how your post advances the discussion doesn't mean I'm trying to take a shot at you. The Honey thing WAS patronizing and I apologised for it. Sorry again.

Because media portrays a false picture of muslims. There are extremists in all religions.

1) There are plenty of Muslims [if one counts all Muslim countries and states, etc.] that practices a strict form of Islam (laws that most [not all] would find offensive). Add the groups that say: 'Destroy all infidels' plus those that blow up people actively and the friendlies/moderates messages are blocked out.

2) No churches in Mecca (Muslims are free to construct mosques in Christian countries, the reverse does not apply and even if it did, the members get attacked, churches get vandalized, etc.)

3) Islam and democracy look like water and oil :p (you have to sacrifice some to have a suitable gov't and even if the gov't was considered democratic.... as long as there's a majority of Muslims [Indonesia]... the gov't might as well be considered Islamic).

4) News reports: More Islamic news reports get into the news, so... (add 9-11).

5) Those that read the Koran... literally...

(just my opinion... but I think #1 and #4 is correct)

My best friend is a Muslim, two of them really and there is this guy in my class, a muslim too, who I considered as my "mom"

Muslims in my class are very nice and we are in peace.
we dont really promote the hatred on Muslims in our school.
Even if it is a catholic school :)

We accept every religion, well.. That is what was taught

Why think anyone is bad? Red star flags communism, the way Arabs attract attention through dress, while covering themselves is like wearing an "I support death to you Americans" shirt. Their past history, 9/11, and all other acts of terrorism is how most people identify all Arabs as. Not to say all Arabs are terrible people, but their posterboys in Al Qaeda certainly do their reputation no justice. There are fine people amongst all countries, but then once the bomb goes off, the entire nation as a whole becomes harder to warm up to.

Might as well point this out before someone else does, as obvious as it is.

It's a choice that we created to believe whether they are good or bad. It is unfortunate to know that people see them as that because of the mistakes of the others.
