Bad or good depends on who is telling the story after the dust settles. The Catholic church roared into ancient Turkey on the Crusades to try to "bring the heathens to their senses". They also held the Inquisitions where many who were different were branded heretics and tortured. And a few, just executed. All in the name of God. Same here in America with the taming of the savages(The 1st Nation people who were here 1st)and those deemed witches. Guss no one remembers burning witches at the stake or the dunking chairs. I know a Muslim or 2. They are as passionate about their religion as I am mine. And just as some would torture people during the Inquisition in the name of God, I am sure some would blow up a person they see as an infidel in the name of Allah(which is also God too). You can separate fact from fiction, and truth from diction by following the logic, or you can just believe the hype and the spin.

Nop !!!
Muslims are not bad.
Islam is violent but muslims don't necessarily have to be.
Read the Koran on your own then make up your own mind and it might explain why some are motivated into terrorism....
Here is a good site with the Koran with 3 different versions
It is the University of California:
http://www.usc.edu/dept/MSA/fundamentals/hadithsunnah/bukhari/052.sbt.html#004.052.267
Muslim say read the Koran... well go ahead, read it and
find out what it says about
Jews, christians and polytheists
About women
About slaves
About Mohammed
Aboud JIHAD
About infidels
About heaven
Then you will be in a better position to determine on your own what part of the issue is.

No the Muslim religion is not bad. The radical group of terrorists that carried out those attacks on Sept. 11 would be bad were they Christian, Budist , Muslim or any other religion.Killing in the name of any religion is wrong in my belief and I think 99% percent of the people on this earth would agree with this. And as far as the media goes they will jump on anything for the sake of ratings. I am not Muslim but I believe religion is all about living your life in a manner in which you love your fellow man and cause no harm and help out when you can.And let God or Allah sort it out in the end.

You need to learn to listen with BOTH EARS. Muslim as such is not Bad; but some fanatics interpret THEIR Bible to their own liking. The Holy Koran does not teach Muslims to kill others. The media does not say that Muslim is BAD, so listen up.

no religion is bad only people. and to the people who talk about the Muslim fundamentalists who want to kill everybody i ask you about ohh so beloved billy graham who says nothing besides killing people from other religions. and the infidels of whom the qur'an talks about are not the real followers of the abrahamic religions(Christians, Jews, Muslims) but others. Koran says all real and good Christians will go to heaven. also people don't know nothing about Islam Islam believes to the Prophets of all three religions Jesus. Moses. David, Salomon, Aaron, Jacob, Jop etc. (peace be upon them). the extremists from all religions go a little bit astray.

I havent heard the media say muslims are bad. Muslim terrorists yes. But all terrorists are bad. Some dont like muslim fundementalists because they see them as mistreating women. But these hate fundementalists of all religion as well.
