I don't make these things up, they exist! They speak for themselves.

Well, sweetie, I'm sorry you're sad.
But the realities of life tends to make people react with sadness.
People are reacting to actions of some Muslims. I am a Christian and I do not believe in the Islamic faith however, I do know that there are many good and kind Muslims in the world.
Many people do not like how some of the cultures that follow Islam mix their tribal ideas with the religion.
I too, question the peacefulness of Islam but the tribal ideas from the different countries mixed with its theology makes it even worse.
These are the realities of life ALL religions must deal with, so don't be sad.

Look the Muslims have a huge problem with the radical side right now. There are hundreds of thousands at Hamas rallies, not a few. There are large crowds in the streets of Iran after Friday prayers EVERY week saying they want to kill westerners. I could go on and on. You can deny that fact all day, but these guys are going to start WWIII if the moderate side doesn't do something to stop them. I am not the one that says it is about Islam, they are. I just don't see any reason to not believe them.
I have only seen two Muslims that regularly speak out against it, and they both live behind bullet proof glass. You need to look at what is really happening and stop blaming those who notice. What have you done today to stop terrorism?

All modern religions have a light and dark side. Unfortunately, all we have seen for the past almost 60 years is the dark side of Islam. Until Islam can rein in its violent fanatics, renounces all violence toward non-believers, begins to treat its women with more justice, and ceases its ongoing efforts to rule the world, it will never be taken seriously as a mainstream faith. I'm not at all convinced of Islam's "peaceful" nature. It has a long way to go with me.
Edit: I hate to burst anyone's bubble, but T. E. Lawrence was NOT a Muslim. He was a serving British officer, and a member of the Church of England. Someone seems to be confused.

Not all Muslims are terrorists. The media is giving them a bad name. The peaceful and moderate Muslims are making a difference. The best Muslims to be found are in the West. They have shown high tolerance towards people of other religons and have done a lot to educate people about the real Islam.

It's a miracle in itself that it has lasted so long, but personally I think it needs a well-due update. It was written for people living in other times, the world has moved on now and religions are the only ones being left behind. I recommend you educate yourself on your religion, and every other one out there, but be a critical thinker- ask the 5 W's: What, When, Where, Who, Why (and occasionally, How).
Then keep the standing morals that work well in our society/world and let go of all the others...if you do no harm to others, God, Krisna, Allah, Buddha, and even Jehova will forgive you in the end!
No one has died for not wearing a veil, nor praying to the sun three times a day!

Learned people go for the source.
But now a days people are judging a religion or a faith by the followers of the respective religion.
Islam is a way of life. It is pure in content.
Has a wonderful light called Holy Quran to guide us in the darkness.
Numerous people won by reading Quran
Eg.
Cat Stephen
MalcomX
Yvone Redley
Dr.Maurice Bukhail(French Physician) saw the scientific reality of Quran with his knowledge.
Read the Quran and find the truth wich never contradicts in its context.Where bible contradicts in several places.
Quran is for the whole humanity, not only for Muslims.

Is it? I think you need to learn more about it before you defend it, my dear. Just because you were raised in a religion and never saw the ugly side of it, doesn't mean it doesn't exist. My mother's family is catholic and they are all lovely people who don't advocate anything bad - does that mean the Spanish inquisition didn't happen?

Radical Muslims are a problem for me, any religion that prays to kill me and my family and all people who are not in agreement of their religion scares the Hell out of me. I don't see Christians killing Christians, but every day I see Muslims killing Muslims.

maybe you should convert.
islam cannot change from its archaic and evil ways.
moderate muslims must denounce the religion that casts themselves into this terrible light.
and no, it is not peaceful and great.
you may be, but islam certainly isn't.
