Somethings they say do seem a bit extreme but they do have a few choice opinions on things that does make some sense.
What's your take on it?

Yes they are a BIT racist but you have to remember this was formed by a blackman who saw his mother abused by a slave master, who has seen a lot of evil acts from the white race. But there is also truth in it, I personally don't pray to Allah though. I like the books that they put out though especially by Elijah Muhammad.

"Why don't you ask a Jewish person", because she didn't want to bloody ask a Jewish person, why don't you just answer the question. As with any religion, the fundamentals of Islam are racist to a large degree. This doesn't make every Muslim racist, just like every Christain is not racist. However no other group of people put so much stock into their religion than Muslims do. If that is focused on Islamic countries, well then that's their business, but problems start when they try to integrate this loopy religion into other societies. So in a nutshell, the answer to your question is yes.

Thier doctrine is very racist. In fact 30 years ago you could equate them with the KKK. Now, individually not all members are racist nor are the required to be. On balance they have done greater good in the communities they are very active in. Gang shootings and street violence drops significantly when they get involved. they are also great beleivers in higher education ( much like the Jews), which accounts for a high college graduation rate for Nation of Islam followers.

My cousin is in it and she's totally racist, unfortunately. I've been praying for her to be free for years.....

Their views are fine unless you want to live in a capitalistic society.
