Both don't eat pork, and both are more conservative than Christians, and Jewish women (those who are religious) are abide by certain rules like not talking to strange men or expose their bodies... etc. much the same as Muslim women, and both religions condemn the adulters by stonning them... (3 And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery; and when they had set her in the midst, 4 They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act. 5 Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou? -John-)
Anyway, the question is... why the Christians only attack Muslims for the same rules that the Jews are following? If Christians love eating filthy porks and are parading their women in porn and softcore, this is not the Muslims problems, right? Is it because the Old Testament is added to the New Testament, yet Christians don't follow either... or there are other reasons? Any idea?

Aside that your picture is so old (if it's you) and u already have one foot in the grave, you have to face the fact that America is propspering from Middle East and sipping the oil with straws... and you have to learn that Christianity in historical references turned out to be the most violent... and about generalization, when the higher % of a society do something then we can generalize to some extent... yet you stupidly generalizing the muslims who pointed the finger with as u said "takfir" who are no more than 10% of the billion muslims over there... I could say more, but you are too old and maybe dead already while I'm writing this... so go learn something in your late years before meeting your creator with a mind like yours.

Why some people here are assuming that I live in the Middle East? Is it because they feel that no place other than the Middle East would criticize them? Well, you have to watch the news then and see how Rice got welcomed in England... or any other place on earth!
Again to whynotaskdon... moon god is what the most ignorant people and probably those who were molested by priests call the god of muslims... this line showed how ignorant you are because muslims has nothing to do with the moon except counting the months. (u have to thank me for fixing your knowledge)

Christians leave Jews alone because they still think there is something magical about Jews and they don't want to piss YHWH off.
Muslims on the other hand are open season to them.
Most westerners are Christians.

Your facts aren't exactly true...
Jews DO NOT stone anyone. Yes, they did in biblical times, but that was 4000 years ago.
Religious Jews CHOOSE to be religious. No one will stone them or do anything to them if they choose a different path in life. Some Muslim countries FORCE their residents to behave like religious people, even tho they are not (see the Taliban and Iran during Hummeini's reign). They FORCE women to wear veils and cover their whole body. They take away human rights and FORCE people to live by what they think is the Muslim law. They also reverted the judicial system thousands of years back and re-introduced the stoning as punishment.
Jews have been ridiculed for centuries. Muslims only recently (since 9/11) have become a target of jokes. I think Muslims will soon stop being the target, and the Jews will go back to being the ridiculed ones.
As to the pork thing - I've never heard anyone make fun of either Jews or Muslims about that. Don't know what the answer is there.
I think this whole business is sad. It's sad that we make fun of each other, even tho our beliefs are so similar. We worship the same God, in different ways. We should respect our God enough to believe he made ALL humans, and respect all humans because we are all God's children.

americans dont attack the muslims for following jewish rules. they attack them for other reasons.
1. they are believed to be a sub race.
2. the oil they control.
3. they hate american ways and values.
4. muslims feel western values have corrupted their people.
5. westerners wont get out of their land.
6. westerners are trying to change muslim way of life.
A. their way of life has been going on since the dawn of time
a. if muslims are fine with how they live. why fix what aint
broken.
7. america took sides with the isrealis.
8 trying to force democracy, and restructure their government
with a bogus constitution.
A. muslims dont want a westernized constitution. or any
constitution.
9. muslims want their own weapons.
A. america has them, why cant muslims? americans are
just as crazy, and trigger happy as any muslim. 10. america makes it seem as though attrocities only happen there, when, in fact americans are just as heartless a killer as any muslim. the point of this outline, is, it could be one, or all of these reasons.
we may never know. the government has shrouded the true answer in politics.

OK I honestly don't know if all of the religious comparisons you made are accurate. But I can tell you about racism at least that which exists in the USA.
There are some people who hate Jewish people (anti-Semitism). And there are some people who hate Muslim people. And there are some people who hate everybody that's different from them. These people aren't necessarily Christian, but are using religion as a facade to justify their ignorance and xenophobia.
Jewish people, however, have lived in mainstream US society for generations now. Muslim people tend to be more newly arrived, either immigrants or second-generation, and therefore seem more "alien". As with any "alien" population, they become a target for racism because people don't yet know or understand their culture, and because they aren't yet very assimilated into the culture. Americans are very culture-centric and will think of Muslims as "other" or "alien" even when the Muslims in question are living in majority-Muslim areas.
Unfortunately, 9/11, the Iraq war, al-Qaida, bin Laden, riots over cartoons of Mohammed, suicide bombers and anti-American statements from the likes of Amadinejad in Iran, are all images that the average American associates with the average Muslim... even if those images aren't actually representative.

Every body thinks they are being attacked when they are not and its Easy to say it's the Christians i don't know one True Christian that sleeps with prostitutes or commits adultery or any of the same Ten commandment the Jews have as far as the Muslims i don't know but i always here they are attacking the Christian Faith Jesus Christ gave the commandment of Love. Love the Lord thy God with all your heart your mind and your soul. He also commanded us to Love our neighbor even if the are satanist he commanded us to Love our enemy to be a true Cristian
which means for those who don't know CHRIST LIKE to be and live like Christ before you can do this you must have his Love in your Heart it's not easy to love your fellow man. we are all Children of God no matter what God you think you have some people probably pray to there toilet more then our Father God and they might call there self a Christian but anyone who hates his brother and says he loves God is a liar.

It is interesting how you generalize that "" Christians love eating filthy pork's and are parading their women in porn and soft core.......""
Our pork is government inspected and is refrigerated. It is not filthy like some belly dancing loving sand dune dwellers minds are.
Only the lower classes of our CIVILIZATION parade their women and utilize pornography. WHY DO ALL muslims HATE, HATE, HATE, EVERYTHING WESTERN except our money that you covet!
GENERALIZATION is a wonderful thing for you to do - but no one else is allowed.
You get ENRAGED at every turn! If the islamists would quite the REVENGE CRAP and stop the TAKFIR we could all live in peace. ((Without us all bowing to your moon god demon))
(((so now better rush and report me! because I spoke the truth that you don't want to- and can't be allowed to think.)))

Most people are nicer to Jews because Jesus was a Jew. But technically, Jews don't recognize Jesus as a prophet.
Jesus is considered one of the most important prophets in Islam.
Mary's name is mentioned more times in the Qur'an than any other woman in the Qur'an and more times than in the Bible.

Who cares what people eat?It is none of my business what Jews have for dinner and they do not send a rabbi round to see what I have on my plate. Nor do they make rude and insulting comments like you are doing.Where did you learn to behave in such an arrogant and ignorant manner?From idle and worthless teachers of religious bigotry and hatred like that human pig Abu Bakir Bashir,who preaches intolerance and prejudice to little boys with bags on their heads?There is really nothing funny about fanaticism.It is sad,sick and lacking in humanity.

the majority don't live like those stupid old rules

Well, if you read the bible, Jesus (PBUH) himself says he did not come to change the law (the OT) but to confirm it. Most christians conveniently ignore this fact. Oh, and those who eat pig act like pigs. Pigs are also very high in nitrates and retain 98% of their uric acid, which eventually leads to kidney failure in human beings. NOt right away, but in the long run.
