This is downright insulting to me as a Muslim, as I'm sure it is insulting to the rest of us of the Islamic faith.

He's insulting to anyone with half a brain.
But giving him more attention than he's worth probably gets his rocks off.
Yahoo can't always keep everyone out, so let's just ignore trash like him.

I am a Christian, and I find the questions this person asked very insulting to Muslims. Yes, I agree with you, nobody should be posting hateful and bigoted stuff like that. Did you report him? I believe that Yahoo will investigate and hopefully take appropriate action.

I agree that the posts are insulting, but everyone here takes their licks. Christians, atheists, wiccans, everyone gets hit, it's a part of being in this forum. It takes a thick skin to be here for any length of time, you really just need to let things like this roll right off your back. Remember that you are interacting with people whom you will never meet. They only way they can hurt you is if you decide to let them. Ignore it.

I just read the posts-I find them offensive as well. Bear in mind that Christian Americans used to marry their young (12 year old) daughters to adult men in the late 1800's. It was quite common.
Also bear in mind that "jack" is from Texas, and everyone knows that Austin is the only intelligent area in Texas, and he is obviously from Sugarland or some other troll swamp.
I don't believe in censorship, unless it concerns hate. This would be one of those instances.

I am not Muslim, nor do I accept Muslim beliefs, but that is no call for rudeness.
I can assure you that whatever people who post like that call themselves, they are NOT Christians. That statement is not judgemental either, because a Christian will follow Jesus' example and teachings, and he said at Matthew 7:12 that we should treat other people the way we want them to treat us.
(Unless they want people to insult them!?!)

I find this person offending and recommend starting a petition for his removal from yahoo answers.

I find him wanting to censor other yahoo answers members.

Report him as abuse.
While I'm not Muslim, I agree, there is no need for this sort of insult to you and your beliefs.
Notice the user name is itself a derogatory request.

Please note that the question is insulting to almost everyone regardless of their religion. The avatar testifies to what this person thinks of himself. Report him and move on.

This type of junk is the price of freedom of speech. Look at the responses he got. We can take care of this garbage ourselves.

He has been reported. Now he just needs to be ignored.
