I'm interested in knowing what percent of Muslims support Sharia law, suicide bombings, and that kind of thing.

Sharia law is not uniform, different groups of Muslims have different ideas of what constitutes Sharia law. Many American Muslims regard USA law as already Sharia-compliant.

9/11

Yes, the attackers were muslims. There are crazies in any group. What annoys me is that you claim that idiots can also not be muslims. There are stupid christians, stupid atheists,and in fact stupid muslims. To claim that there are not is a lie.
What falls away is always, and is near.

Also, I am not pretending to be female, this profile picture is my wonderful girlfriend. XD

Al Queda may be Muslims, but keep in mind that Al Queda don't present for all of Muslims. Al Queda's the ideology/beliefs of terrorism are condemned by modern Muslims.

Muslims have their own different beliefs.

Oh, of course. I wasn't claiming that all muslims were responsible for 9/11, nor was I saying that the ones who were represent the community. I'm just saying that there are some crazy muslims, unlike the 0% that another member posted.

Timothy McVeigh was a Christian nut, doesn't mean he represent all Christians.


Truth is, crazy shouts louder than moderates or secular Muslims/Christians/Jews.
Crazy makes for better news headlines. Can you imagine a moderate Muslim making front page news?

Headline: CRAZY MUSLIM AGREES WITH SEPERATION OF CHURCH AND STATE!!!

I wouldn't read it.

Of COURSE those nasties are not REAL Muslims. Neither are the Muslims here who think you are an embarrassment to Islam.

I'm beginning to suspect you may not be the brightest lamp in the mosque.Thinking
