Fact: the majority of those of the muslim faith are peace loving and ar not terrorists......

Also a fact: the 9/11 conspirators and the majority of terrorist acts and blowing up of civilians in the past 25 years have been commited by muslims.

Yeah but what about some Tea Partiers saying bad things and hurting feelings?

It's funny, Cat Stevens wrote and recorded the song before he became a Muslim and when he became a Muslim he quit singing for 30 years. And it isn't the best example of Muslims singing because it's an American music genre. I don't think anyone doubts Muslims sing, but what do they sing? American music?

.

Not to mention that when Salam Rushdie wrote the book called "The Satanic Verses" and dissed the prophet Muhammed, the singer formerly known as Cat Stevens called for his death. Also after he wrote "Father-Son".

Durry's argument (or rather strenuously affirmed opinion) is that Muslims have no "beautiful" culture. The appreciation of art and culture is entirely subjective. Assuming he knows enough about Muslims culture, you won't be able to convince him that Muslims have beautiful culture anymore than you'd be able to convince a person who hates sweets that candy is delicious. But he probably doesn't know a damn thing about it. Personally I think he's an example of Poe's law. The irony in this post of his is too good to be true :p

Well I go to China town and I see them often celibrating using beautiful customs, carrying out colorful dances, I see E Indians doing the Bollywood thing, I see almost all othe cultures in their communities enjoying their cultural activites with their spouses displaying and acting out acts of beauty.

When I see a bunch of Muslims together during one of their cultural holidays, the best I've ever seen is a number of Arb men doing some type of dance type routine?? They moved like a bunch of plow horses pulling a load. There were no women involved, there were some on the sideline wearing their typical hooded veil.

As I said, I have not seen Muslims carry out activites depicting beauty with their spouses. My perception is they like to keep them in the background where they cannot partake in any acts of beauty.

Strange how Rushidie can write books slamming the Quran but the minute someone mentions the Talmud they are Anti-Semetic?

That's a good reason to hate a whole religion: the men don't dance well.

What are you, 12?

anyone who blasphemes the name of the LORD must be put to death. The entire assembly must stone him. Whether an alien or native-born, when he blasphemes the Name, he must be put to death.

If you guys can't read it, that's your problem, not mine.

Sounds like Old Testament.

You are thinking of the Old Testament.

A good Christian does not stone one for blaspheme.

So... in conclusion... you are wrong. 100% wrong.

There is no stoning carried out in any Christian country, but it is still carried out in Muslim countries like Iran.


That's right, good Christian countries kill their citizenry through lethal injection or electrocution.
