Once I was in the fast lane and a tire blew. The cars were passing too quickly, but a car to the right, with a Muslim family inside slowed & let me in front, & so did the others in the other lanes to the right. I was sooo appreciative.

But, of course, they might have been sichhs.

Why? Do muslims usually yell into the burning fire first "I am a muslim, do you want help?".
Your question is goofy at best. I don't "hate" anybody - go practice your muslim religion if thats what you want;
that said, I don't appreciate the fact
that Americans are being indoctrinated into
believing that of a certainty their new "muslim brothers and sisters" will love and cherish them as such. What a crock of ****. Not everybody is stupid. Those Americans who do not know any better had better wake up to the fact that if an enemy cannot get you with a missle, (or planes flown into buildings) their next attempt would be to attack us from within. Those who convert to these religious groups, are as much as opening our doors (wide open) so that they can just waltz right in. We have not gotten attacked since 9/11 (Thank you very much, President Bush) what is it you think that the terrorists changed their minds and don't want you dead?? Wake up sleepy
Americans.
Oh, the rest of your silly question:
On the flip side of the coin, I ask you:
Do you think I or any other citizen of this Nation would care whether YOU are a muslim or not when you are trapped in a fire? Are you so ignorant as to think ANY OF US WOULD YELL IN FIRST: "Let me know if you're a muslim so I don't help you".
If you believe that in your heart, then you don't know much of anything, do you?
Ya know, I don't really like even sounding offensive to anyone, but you're question written as it is, deserves such an answer.

As a Christian, life is precious, especially that of a loved one. We would do what we can to preserve and protect that life. If it is time for God to take them home then our efforts would be in vain and we can accept the outcome for what it is.

John 15:16, Jesus says,"Greater love has no one than this, that one lay down his life for his friends." How much more should we for our family members.

As a Christian, we have no hate for Muslims but do hate some of the things done in their name. Since many of the Muslim leaders tend to promote those things and teach hate from their pulpits, it leaves the world very wary of Muslim motives, particularly when your Koran states violence to proselytize is pretty much commanded. Is it not Muslims who are involved in the vast majority of the mass killings of innocent people with these suicide bombs?

Convince us that we should think differently. It should be the responsibility of the Muslim people to remove those threats and renounce what the Koran says in that respect, not the responsibility of the rest of the world to turn a blind eye and accept propaganda. If you really want to follow a teaching of peace, Jesus sacrificed like no other to show His love for all the world. There is nothing in His teachings that calls for the death of His enemies to make things right; only the blood He shed for your sake.

If a Muslim was performing these acts of mercy they would be working against the Koran which says to kill, enslave, or put all non-Muslims under tribute.
I personally believe no human is beyond redemption and I hope Muslims start doing what you said they hypothetically would do. Of course we all saw Hezbollah putting anti-aircraft guns in Christian neighborhoods near Beirut during the recent conflict with Israel and seeing Muslims helping the poor people of Darfur Sudan naturally fills us with love, trust, and compassion for all Muslims.

First off, hate is never a positive emotion. It is like a poison eating away at a person's heart.

And, as a christian, Jesus taught that we are to love, not hate our enemies.

If my child was in need of desperate help and you could assist, I pray that you would do so just as I would assist yours.

I can't imagine that this is directed at me, since I personally have met, worked with or been friends with 80+ Muslims.

So no, I would have no problem with any of the above scenarios.

But I also don't mention that I'm an Atheist, because I don't want my head lopped off. Those Fatwas are nasty.

I also don't mention my love of Salman Rushdie to Iranians that I know.

Lol.

I do not hate people. I would show respect to any person who saved my child. If their religion called for the ritual killing of endangered species on the lawn of my church, I would appreciate their deeds. i would never be able to credit their actions to their religion though, considering I believe it is false doctorine aimed at rebellion against the One True God. I know there are good people in bad religions, so I don't streotype people. It would be the same with homosexuals, I don't like the way they live, but I love them. I would definately pray that they find Truth while I wrote their thankyou card

I would not deny the help. I would be very grateful. It's just hard to picture Muslims doing something like that when they are strapping bombs to their own children for their religion.
You need not concern yourself so much about what non-muslims think of muslims and start speaking out about the cruelty and death spread in the name of your religion. If more peaceful Muslims spoke out against violent Muslims, maybe we wouldn't have such a poor view.

I haven't heard of muslims doing good things to non-muslims.......thats being unrealistic.

Some muslims cannot tolerate other religions.

this is your statement : "
man invented the trinity idea. the trinity is basically polytheism "

clearly you dont respect other religions.

Pse your statement is wrong . In christianity we believe in one God - if you read the bible you would know.

Its our first commandment to believe in one god and have no other gods beside him

"I am The Lord your God, Who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. You shall have no other gods before Me." (Exodus 20:2-3 RSV)

God speaks to us through Jesus. In the old testament , it was Jesus who was speaking through the bushes to moses. Jesus was there all while along. He came to earth to save us from sin and he will come again as it is given in the Bible.

I'm giving you a simple explanation, but it will take time to understand. It's not easy. Once you believe in Lord Jesus, he will protect you and you will be saved.

People don't hate muslims, some of the best mates i've had have been muslims. Like in all socities, cultures etc there is always a small group of twats that scare people like the manson family who were supposedly christian, Muslims are humans and were all equal.
