Answer 1

that is very interesting. I have only glanced and skimmed, but I will tell you my impressions. Most of the issues and questions addressed seem to be related specifically to issues of poor translation, misunderstanding, and cultural items that don't carry over very well into English. From what I understand about Islam, the Quran is an exceptionally beautiful piece of literature. And at the time of the birth of Islam, the Arabic peoples were under a great deal of pressure. To the west were the Jews and the Christians who had their own scriptures in their respective languages, and to the East was India with a very rich religious, cultural, and liguistic tradition of its own. People were beginning to encroach on Arab lands with the growth of the spice trade and caravans, and Mohammed was able to provide something beautiful to culturally unite the Arabs and make them strong enough to find their rightful place in the world without feeling like they were disrespected as barbarians by their supposedly more enlighthened neighbours.
It worked pretty well for them since for more than a millenium afterwards the Arabic and Muslim peoples were arguably the strongest culture in the world who made advances in science, mathematics, astronomy, art, technology, and architecture while Europe struggled through the dark ages.
Now Arabic and Muslim culture are under assault again, and again their detractors are accusing them of barbarity and trying to destroy their culture. And the stories which are told about them by the enemies of Islam are without exception told by people who know nothing of which they speak. (what does an occupying soldier or an embedded journalist really know about the people they are grinding under their heel?)
The FAQ you have put here really makes it clear that what is at issue here is language. Yes, things like culture economics and religion play into it, but I think what the USA is really upset about is that their oil dealers don't speak English.
Ok that's a huge generalization but I also think that the issues over Mexican immigration in the USA right now are also primarily language based also.
It is important to realize just how many things are necessarily embedded in language, though. And culture is one of those things. For example, Arabic peoples have never built the kind of marketplaces which developed in Europe and the west. Trade has been based around things like kinship, honour, and intertribal politics. So with a language barrier, it makes those markets totally impenetrable to liberal free market capitalism, which depends for its profits on things like marketplaces, price competition, and an idea that the only thing that matters is the item for sale and not who is selling it.
In other words, the ONLY way Haliburton could get the lucrative contracts they were awarded by the US gov't is at the point of a gun, and if they disrupt the Arabis society so much that their traditional forms of buying and trading are so disrupted that they cannot function.
thanks for tip, I'll be reading more from this page!

Answer 2

It's no doubt sincere, but sincerely wrong. Jesus said, " I am the Way the Truth the Life, no man comes to the Father except by Me". Jesus was resurrected and His tomb is empty, you can go see Mohammad's tomb he's still there.
