Yeah its cultural, there are some out there who want to pretend it has some religous significance much the same way the 10M slivers of wood are all from the cross.
How about that, I just insulted 2B+ people in one sentence.

Muslims are an ethnic group, which you are disparaging. Yes, this is a form of racism.

Malcolm X - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia --
Malcolm X (
The beliefs expressed by Malcolm X changed during his lifetime. As a spokesman for the Nation of Islam he taught black supremacy and deified the leaders of the organization. He also advocated the separation of black and white Americans, which put him at odds with the civil rights movement, which was working towards integration. After he left the Nation of Islam in 1964, Malcolm X became a Sunni Muslim, made the pilgrimage to Mecca and disavowed racism
.
No hate speech laws are very much necessary in order to prevent racist clowns like Geert Wilders from abusing free speech and using it to make disparaging remarks against entire ethnic groups which incites hatred and violence.
IN France the Burqa is or was only worn by Musims and the ban specifically affected them..
Seriously? So Osama Bin Laden, Recep Erdogan, Mahmood Ahmadinejad, Ayan Hirsi Ali, Mohammad Suharto, Fei Xiang, John Walker Lindh, .....all one ethnic group? lol
alHafeez.org, Dr. Abdus Salam And The Nobel Prize
The National Assembly of Pakistan having legally declared the Qadianis a non-Muslim minority on Sept. 7, 1974, expelled them from the Muslim religion and entered their name in the list of non-Muslim inhabitants of the country. This legal decree is a mortal blow for them and has successfully killed their infectious germs from blossoming.
Peace prize, big whoop, so did Obama lol.

Muslim Inventions - Nobel Prizes from Planck's Constant
Religion is not an ethnic group, at best Colpy is an incorrigible bigot
Yes. Malcolm X grew up in an extremely racist time and place, he had a right to be angry against white people. Eventually the man found Islam which then resulted in changing his racist views.
What do white people have to whine about? Banana republic ran out of khakis?

Well, they both needed/need body guards to protect them from Muslim fanatics, so I guess they do have something in common.

Well, let's take them one by one........
Great example.....that's one!
That is two! Keep it up......
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muhammad_Yunus
I especially like this guy..........who was recently removed from the bank because of the fear of the corrupt government that he had political aspirations, and the desire of the gov't to get their fingers in the pie....outrageous! But that is another thread...
That's three!
Anyone that has read the Nobel prize-winning piece of garbage titled The Tin Drum by the ex SS trooper Gunther Grass can have NO respect for the Nobel Prize in Literature......it has been a joke for decades, perhaps since since John Steinbeck won it back in the 50s.....I am exceptionally UNimpressed.
But, a prize winner is a prize winner....that's five.
You're kidding....lol.
el Baradei won the Peace Prize for the same reason Obama won it............el Baradei was an enemy of G W Bush, and Obama wasn't G W Bush......
But, a prize winner is a prize winner.....that's six.
Heh heh....that's even funnier.....
Just read the write-up you quoted, the guy is only famous because he was a racist hate-monger.... You pushed it too far with this guy, no way.
So you score six.
So, the Jews, who make up .2 % of the world's population, have won 22% of the Nobel prizes...........that is 110 times the number that one would expect from their population.......
Jewish Nobel Prize Winners

An ethnic group is a people who share a common ancestry, a common identified heritage, culture, history, often language (or languages), religion, etc. An ethnic group is not a people only sharing a single ostensibly voluntary world religion. If we're talking about a small localized religion, you could get away with it by sheer accident, but to say that every Muslim in the world (or most Muslims perhaps) is a part of the same ethnic group is itself rooted in the same ignorance that informs racist beliefs. An ethnic group requires a lot of identifiable characteristics. It is an amorphous concept, but an ethnicity cannot be created with just one characteristic. Taking that one characteristic and applying it to a label that implies many, you are generalizing an enormous and diverse group of people (a billion) into a set of shared characteristics.
Saying that "Arabs" for example are an ethnic group makes more sense, but remains problematic. Calling "Muslims" an ethnic group is ridiculous. It either betrays an ignorance of the cultures and demographics of predominantly Muslim peoples.
I'm not quite sure which group of people make up the largest percentage of Muslims in the world, but I know that there isn't any majority group that does. Arabs, South Asians and South East Asians (as precise as those labels can be) are the largest groups of Muslims and make up near equal amounts of the world Muslim population. The cultures of these peoples are not all the same. Nor is the ancestry or shared sense of identity, community or history. They share Islam as a religion and some of the culture they've chosen to go with it and very little else.
Is this anti-Steinbeck or pro-Steinbeck?
The first half of East of Eden is one of my favourite books. (The second half was OK, but meh.)

I haven't read East of Eden for 30 years......but it was one of my favourites too. Past time for a re-read.
So I guess the "Jews" ARE God's gift to humanity. You're implication seems to be that the "Jews" are better than Muslims because of the number of Nobel prizes they have garnered. By the same token, I guess the Jews are better than Catholics, or Bhudists, or athiests even.
Good point , Nobel Prizes are a joke.
I have to point out how hypocritical it is that you're calling Malcolm X a racist hate-monger, because that's exactly what YOU are. But if you have a better term for your baseless stupid ****ing anti-muslim rhetoric I would like to hear it.

My implication is that Jews have been a gift to humanity because their culture is one that celebrates life, encourages intellectual curiosity, values academic achievement, and respects humanitarianism......
As opposed to Islam, which celebrates death in martyrdom, encourages slavish devotion to the "will of Allah" as expressed in the Koran, and discourages intellectual curiosity as a distraction or even a challenge to the truths of Islam.
Why do you think the Islamic world has been going backwards ever since the reconquista , completed in 1492???
Ah, insult.....the last refuge of those who have exhausted their limited intellectual ammunition.
Nobel Prizes in Literature recently have proven to be a joke......as has the Peace Prize....Obama??? It is to laugh.....Yassir Arafat??? For What? Ostentatious Ugliness? Have a face that closely resembles a sheep's arse??? Thievery above and beyond the call of greed????
But the prizes for science are another matter altogether.
For an explanation of the word racism and its relationship (or lack thereof) to dislike of Islam, please see the excellent post by Corduroy below........I couldn't be bothered restating what she wrote so well.......
When did I call Muslims "brown-eyed Devils"???
lol

Well, in recent times, as in this century, I would say the reason is because of western interference.
Islamic world going backwards?
Qatar has the highest GDP per capita in the world
Brunei is #5
The UAE is not too far behind at #6 in the world
Saudi Arabia is a highly developed country as well
So tell me where do you see the Islamic world going backwards?? :lol:

I'm guessing a pretty significant part of those GDP's consists of westerners extracting their oil.
Certainly in Libya, anyway.
By far, the biggest part of those GDP #'s are held by royalty. CUBert doesn't like to quote accurate statistics otherwise he'd have not even ventured into the socio-economic realm of those nations.
hahahahahaAHAAHAAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!
Do you even know what martyrdom is ? :lol: And slavish devotion , that could apply to many religions.
As far as the Qur'an discouraging intellectual curiosity, why do they bother building schools in Muslim countries then? In Turkey alone they have hundreds of Universities and spend tens of billions on their education system.
Sorry you somehow believe the truth is an insult to you. You do spew baseless anti-Muslim rhetoric, that is no insult just a simple fact.
What do you have against Sadat? He was executed because he tried to broker peace between Egypt and Israel.
Huh? You're both a bigot and racist and it's beyond obvious.
Kind of like how the richest 1% hold majority of all the wealth in the U.S.A .... ?
Actually, I have absolutely NOTHING against Anwar Sadat......I blew it. Brain fart.....I meant Yassir Arafat, who you must admit, did closely resemble a sheep's arse.
My bad.
As for being a bigot, damn right.
I have standards. That is, of course, bigotry.
as for racist.....nope, I'm not.
