Islam a Dangeous Religion?

[LilMikey]

After the Pope's comments about Mohammed being evil, the Islams began to get violent.

After the Pope's apology for the announcement, the Islams became even more violent.

The Islams are a peaceful people - and it looks like they'd kill anyone who says different!

They are crazy and they want us all dead because we are Americans. They are extremely dangerous. We cannot back down and let them do as they wish.

I'm sure that the religious bigots among Muslims say the same things about Christians.

The thread, and it's counterpart, have taken a very inflammatory slant. While individuals like Mel Gibson and the Pope have recently forayed into the blame game, there is no reason to do that here.

It's pretty dangerous if you are an American Christian...[}:)]

Yeah, those liberal bas'tids are trying to take CHRISTMAS away from you, aren't they? [}:)]

Please tell me that there is a VERY small Muslim population in Tulsa.[}:)] Unfortunately, they scare me.[:O]

[MichaelC]

Nope.  Tulsa is about 1/3rd Islamic, 50% Greek Orthodox, and the other 8/13ths is Sikh.  And we all get along as if we just had one massive drunken orgy yesterday.

So if you come to Tulsa, you'll be our first self-proclaimed xenophobe.

[Chicken Little]

Who turned on the bigot spigot?

/and MC, I believe that Tulsa is actually 2/6ths Islamic...sheesh, get it straight.

[MichaelC]

Thanks for the heads up CL.  I forgot to carry the one.  My bad.

All the muslims I know are regular-sized people.

Are you just afraid of the small ones?

Muslims and evangelists -- putting the fun in fundamentalism.

Well, there's another thing we agree on.

I've seen a lot of comparisons drawn to christians on this forum, and I must say that I don't understand that.

True - christrians have their share of idiots.  Mr. Phelps in Kansas is a prime example of that.  Locally we have people like Oral Roberts who lock themselves in small rooms and tell everyone that God will kill him if he doesn't raise enough money.  (Incidentally, he used that money to build a hospital which now stands mainly empty - I've often wondered how the people who donated towards that feel about their donations going to what amounted to as real estate fraud IMO.)

But Islams are BLANTANTLY violent - just look at the amount of death and carnage created by islamic terrorists around the world for so many years.  C'mon - recently they killed a nun in response to the Pope's comments.  THAT'S peaceful?

The koran advocates violence - and they certainly have their idiots who take it lioterally and have no problem following through.
