Are people so thick?
Why yes they are. Once they are mind setted about something it is impossible to ask them to be more open minded.

Not A Race That Is Correct And True. The Muslims have never been a race. Muslim Nation includes representation from all--- repeat..ALL.. the Nations, of the present and the past, and of the future too. It is a unique religion that it appeals to all the races. Because, there is NO racial discrimination among Muslims. At the Hajj pilgrimage, you could be rubbing shoulder with any race. Not your choice to find a preferred corner. There, while going around Kaaba, the Men and Women are always together, Hijab is not ordained during Hajj ritual. But no one has the time the mood the inclination at watching others' faces, You are engrossed in your own spirituality.

This is partially true. It should be remembered though that many nationalities are associated with a religion. Britain is a Christian country for example. So it is possible that an insult towards a muslim could be associated to an islamic state such as Iran or Turkey. It is a bit of a grey area. In any case it is equally illegal to discriminate on religious grounds as it is on racial grounds now. So does it really matter?

Yes----they are that thick. I like this word you use-afraid I would have used the word stupid.
It is also true that so very many people believe that all Muslims are Arabs. Only a small percentage are.
But, why fight it? Bigotry and uninformed people will never change. I gave up a long time ago. I might still offer my comments on things--but, I gave up trying to change people's minds.

People are not thick my friend, it is you who is thick and cannot understand that Muslims are a sect, as a matter of fact, a very dangerous sect.
P.S. Sect, is a body of people subscribing to religious doctrines. The followers of a particular philosophy (in our case Islam).

Racism or not, it's prejudice. The word racist is just automatically used in reference to a peoples who are different. Besides, if you go by that, there is only the human race. No blacks, no whites, no Asians, so then there can be no racism against different races.

There's only one race in the human species, the human race.
It's impossible for a human to be racist to another human.
On the other hand humans were divided into groups, so a human can be fascist to another human.
