They represent their faith by their actions. That would be about the worst thing that could be said of them. Not all Muslims are crazy, but there don't seem to be many that speak for the good ones. I did hear from one Muslim who said he was ashamed of them. I liked him immediately and believed what he said.
If little things make them mad (angry) what are some things that could be done or said to make them really pop their tops??? Maybe since they are so sensitive, we can drive them to visit the land of 72 Virginians in on violent jump off a cliff or kill each other out of sheer fury.

How is Jihad different from the 14th century quote about using the sword to spread the faith???
I believe man created God ... the same God for all of us because he doesn't want to die. It makes no sense then that we should kill each other because we worship in different ways. Religion has been the root cause of most wars of past and present.

You see, 100% of Muslims do not react to the problem. It is just the fundies. You know how.. While I was vacationing in Turkey, it was when the cartoon protest on Muhammad (peace be upon him), it was just a group of 100 or 200 of them in Istanbul. Then, you hear CNN and they are saying "Muslims all over the world are protesting when only the fundies are". Yes, it did offend me but not in a way that I should kill the person when he has nothing to do it and b/c he/she is not from my religion. It is all Media. Peace my brother.......

...and so, knowing what angers Muslims, you write idiotic things like this, just to push buttons and piss off more people???
This world is going nuts. One person throws a rock, another throws a boulder; someone says something offensive, then someone else shoots a totally different person in the back 3 or 4 times - and it gets worse and worse.
Pretty soon we will all be gone because no one seems to want to get along.
I'm wondering how many different races and religions, etc. of people would bond together if we were suddenly attacked by something from outer space? Would we bond and fight together, or fight amongst each other and still kill each other off?
We need to remember that, just because there are a few bad apples in every bunch, it doesn't mean they are ALL bad.
Whatever "His" name is: "God", "Allah"... (Some people even question if "He" is a "He" or a "She" etc.), so - whoever or whatever our maker is, "He," "She," "It" whatever - (I'll just say "He" and "God" to make this easier to write and hope no one is offended. It is how I believe) -
HE IS WATCHING US.
I wouldn't blame God if He just destroyed every living human on earth and let the other animals take charge.
It's like there's a deadly type of infection going on across the world that is far worse than AIDS, cancer and Eboli. This terribly contagious infection is called "Hate" and it's killing more people in the world than anything else.
Some people don't even believe that God is watching us, because it puts a distance between us and God - they say that God is within us.
I think God IS within us, but also is still able to step back and watch us as well. After all, He is God, the almighty powerful, so I think he can do that. I wonder what He's saying right now.
Thank you for reading this, sorry for the length. I tend to get a bit carried away on some subjects I've been finding in "Ask."
FROM A DISTANCE
Bette Midler
From a distance
The world looks blue and green
And the snow capped mountains white
From a distance
The ocean meets the stream
And the eagle takes to flight
From a distance
There is harmony
And it echoes through the land
It’s the voice of hope
It’s the voice of peace
It’s the voice of every man
From a distance
We all have enough
And no one is in need
And there are no guns, no bombs and no disease
No hungry mouths to feed
From a Distance
We are instruments
Marching in a common band
Playing songs of hope
Playing songs of peace
They are the songs of every man
Chorus
God is watching us
God is watching us
God is watching us
From a distance
From a distance
You look like my friend
Even though we are at war
From a distance
I just cannot comprehend
What all this fighting’s for
From a distance
There is harmony
And it echoes through the land
And it’s the hope of hopes
It’s the love of loves
It’s the heart of every man
Repeat chorus twice.
Fade to end

Well, I remember the reaction from christian practicianers when that so-called artist put a cross in urine; or people having fits over removing the 10 commandments from public places. Like all religious barbarians, the moslems are reacting to an attack on their beliefs. Christians do the same.

Muslims get offended to easily. When someone said that Jesus was a rapist at college I laughed and said "whatever." I didn't do any violent acts, unlike some Muslims.
