(I think it takes a big person to admit that he/she would do such a thing)

I actually have done multiple re-evals - especially because it was apparent that I had hurt other people who were devout to their religious beliefs which differed from what I believe. And I have had to apologize for my approach a number of times.

I think there are times, too, though, where it's impossible to avoid offending others. It's in those times when I've had to trust God and speak with fear and trembling, leaning heavily on the compassion with which He dealt with me to speak to a particular person in the first place.

Did Muhammed re-evaluate how he treated people of other religions, if he found out he hurt them?

Muhammed robbed caravans and murdered people for a living. He "Forced' people to be muslim, and if they didn't want to, he murdered them!

Muhammed Histoy,

http://www.contenderministries.org/islam/muhammad.php

More history;
......................During all of this, Muhammad accused local Jewish tribes of conspiring to aid Mecca. After Badr, the Medinese Jews were attacked and forced to emigrate to Syria. After the defeat at Uhud, the Nadir tribe of Jews received the same fate. Two years later, after a failed Meccan siege of Medina was over, the Qurayza tribe of Jews was attacked and all the men were killed.

Eventually, eight years after the hijra, Mecca was forced to negotiate a peaceful surrender to Muhammad and almost all citizens became Muslims. Thereafter Mecca would remain a center of devotion for Muslims all over the world. During the next two years, Islam swept across Arabia with most cities voluntarily joining, but a few remained stubborn and had to be brought in by force.

On June 8, 632 (eleven years after the hijra), Muhammad died. By the 640s, Arabs possessed most of Syria, Iraq, Persia, and Egypt. Thirty years later they were conquering parts of Europe, North Africa, and Central Asia.

Jesus "Never" sinned,

Jesus is God manifested in the flesh!

Of course I would . I would not change my way of living to accommodate their religion,such as how I dress,eat ,talk or believe. There are some religions that get offended just by eating certain kinds of meats,wearing of shorts ,not believing in god ,and the usage of certain words . I feel if you attack someone verbally about their religion,you only give credence to how they feel about their abuser.

If it makes you feel any better, there are some people who wouldn't treat anybody badly cause of their religion. It is true, it takes a big person to admit, but it takes a bigger person to not stereotype in first place.

Why discriminate? Overlook outer factors and look at a person as human being.

I sincerely love and respect all people of religions and of no religons, because they are all the children of the One True God. If any of my speech and action hurt them, I am ready to say apology and immediately try to modify my behavior. I think it is not anything big, but it is the natural way of a real human being.

Muslimah,my dear sis :) , everyone should be considerate for others' feelings as there is no compulsion in religion,however some ppl r really trying 2 hurt others whether on purpose or unconsciously...not only coz they r different in religion or belief but also race and color which is considered to be extremely hurtful...

yes--if i was being a ignorant boob, and i didnt understand why they believed in what they believed.

and NO --if i HURT THEM--BY TELLING THE TRUTH.i would apologies for rudeness and not being tact full, BUT I WOULD NOT APOLOGIES FOR THE TRUTH.

truth is relative-15 things about the same subject can be true, that seem like opposites.

but i will not hide the truth--that a persons shoe lases are untied if --hiding the truth will injure them.

If someone is offended or hurt because I don't share their superstitions, it is not my fault. They are the one who have adopted a set of beliefs that they wish to force on everyone and which has as it's end and most sought after goal, THE END OF THE WORLD.

If I knew I hurt someone, I would apologize. Simple as that. Everyone has their right to freedom of religion. Who am I to judge anything? I don't tell people things unless they ask me about my religion or my opinion. If they offer me their opinions of their religion, I will listen. I may not go to their church when they invite me. I will thank them for their invitation.

I do not have any "different" way of treating people of other religions, so I would not have to re-evaluate!
