Answer 1

Publicly condemn them instead of staying quiet. I would turn them over to the cops if they were planning or plotting some sort of terrorist thing

Answer 2

Did you ever stop to think that perhaps they secretly support what the so called "radicals" are doing? I mean after all the whole basis of the Islamic religion is violence and humility. Women are subservient, men must lay prone before Allah five times a day, children cannot be free thinking, etc, etc. The whole religion is barbaric and archaic. If the "good" Muslims were really offended by the "radical" Muslims, don't you think they would have done something to stop them?? No. I remember 9/11, and I remember watching those bastards in Iran, Iraq, Syria, etc dancing and cheering as the towers fell. If they didn't support "radical Islam", why were they so happy about the death of thousands of innocent Americans.

Answer 3

the same thing I did when radical Atheist told me I couldnt' believe or have prayer, because my faith offends them.
Tell them to shove it up their bleepity bleep bleep.
I do know of those types of ministers. The army base I live on is protested by the Westboro Baptist Church on a semi regular basis. So I say again, they can shove it up their bleepity bleep bleep. You can't let a few bad apples ruin the whole bushel.
All religions especially Islam has a bad rep. all because of a few jerks. But for the most part all religions have an essentially good core, some just lose their way.

Answer 4

no longer all Democrats have faith Islam is danger unfastened and just about faith. What you're describing is apathy and it runs by social gathering strains. till something happens like yet another 9/11 lots of our so referred to as leaders will take no action to wrestle the issue.

Answer 5

*sigh*, while i agree with what you are saying, one of the reasons (i think) that islamic leaders are not voicing a major protest is because in Islam, conflict between islamists spells a very bad omen for all. I know muslims personally who hate the radicals

Answer 6

One of the reasons I stopped identifying myself as a Christian as I came of age was that the Christian religion had been, in my perception formed by the media presentation of the Moral Majority and the Pro-life movement, hijacked by murderous radicals. Alas, this continues to this day, as our nation has been lead into war by a govt leader who says his favorite philosopher is Jesus Christ. All over America, there are people with bumper stickers exhorting an end to abortion and support for the slaughter of tens of thousands of innocent people - in the name of liberating them. All over America, good Christians pray for a man who oversees torturing - and killing - people our military acknowledged were innocent. All over America, good Christians teach their children, hold absurdly slanted 'classes' promoting the idea, that they are of a species 6000 years old, who roamed the earth alongside dinosaurs until a big flood killed off the dinos and most humans.

If you read Noah, you won't find dinosaurs - unless, no, it can't be. Just before the story of the Ark, Genesis notes that the daughters of men married the sons of Giants. Indeed, Genesis goes on to record two separate accounts with significantly differing details, of a great flood in, of all places, a land between two mighty rivers...

So, what would I do is a what have I done. As the decades have passed, and after I read Jefferson's argument that he was a Christian in the only way Christ ever intended, that he love his neighbor as he loved himself, I've become more comfortable with Jesus, and try to learn as much as possible about the evolution of the christian and hebrew texts to see who was there and who said what. I am far from understanding Islam, but I know from watching the movie The MEssage and hearing about Karen Armstrong's books on Islam and Mohammed that the Muslims have a fine core of teachings and lessons about confederation building to return to for renewal.

And everyone can accept, as Jefferson argued, that these philosophers are steps forward in the evolution of human ethics and surely we can keep thinking about this matters and move forward again, rather than settling upon our nomadic and then our imperially occupied ancestors to move us into the space age.

Answer 7

I would do whatever it took to help educate the rest of the world that this isn't the true meaning of my religion, and would try to discuss it logically and intelligently with anyone willing to listen.

Answer 8

If my religion was hijacked by a hate-filled jihadist like you, I would stop attending religious services.

And that's the short answer to the question: why don't Americans go to Church much anymore?

Answer 9

Ive ween so many christians preach one thing and do another I left after I realized how silly it all was.

Christianity was AND STILL IS run by murderous radicals.

Read it and weep.

Answer 10

Maybe they see it as turning against fellow Muslims,despite how psychotic they are. The Umma Wahida is the world wide community of Muslims.
