Many people are against racism but at the same time make judgements in relation to religion. Many Muslims are facing problems in non-Muslim countries because of that. Are you one of these people?

Islam is against racism.

Bible is racist.
Mathew 10:5-6 These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not:
But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

Mathew 15:24 But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

Matthew 15:26 But he answered and said, It is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it to dogs (non-jews).

Being Muslim isn't a race, it's a religion.

What your accusing people of in your question is the same thing that the evangelical atheist's on here proudly do day after day when it comes to Christians.

That being said, you are right, many muslims are facing problems in non-muslim countries. Try being a non-muslim in a muslim country, that's no picnic either.

i'm not a racist i'm a religiousist until i see musilims take to the streets and protest the fact that their faith has been hijacked by bunch of extremist and nut jobs who stone innocent girls in the streets and cut off peoples heads, like they do over a few cartoons then i have no choice but to believe that they condone and encourage such behavior.this is the image of islam that i see how can i do anything but fear something such as this.i dont feel tis way about you because you are middleeastern or arab or whatever you call yourself i fear you because of the path you choose to follow that commands you to force me to convert at the point of a sword.

I don't think you understand what "racist" means.

I've been called a racist by a muslim here when explaining how stupid some parts of the quran is (the stars were created as missiles to fire at devils???). It seems you don't know the difference either.

However, racists are prejudiced against certain RACES.

Of course we are free to judge people based on their beliefs. Or is the belief of somebody who thinks the earth is flat as valid as your belief?

Muslims arent a race. People are against your religion, not your race.

Racism is based on inherited qualities that you have no control over.

Adults are fully capable of choosing the religion they follow.

There is nothing wrong with basing your opinion of people on the choices they make.

Religion does not equal race.

You can stop being a Muslim tomorrow, you will still be white or brown or pink or yellow.

Religion is evil stupid and an insult to humanity, it is also guilty of institutional racism.

Love the person hate the religion.

mckenziecalhoun,
how many more false/mistranslated hadith you have? one example of actual translation of your hadith.

Sahih Bukhari, Volume 4, Book 52, Number 137:
Narrated Abu Huraira: The Prophet said, " Let the slave of Dinar and Dirham, of Quantify and Khamisa perish as he is pleased if these things are given to him, and if not, he is displeased. Let such a person perish and relapse, and if he is pierced with a thorn, let him not find anyone to take it out for him. Paradise is for him who holds the reins of his horse to strive in Allah's Cause, with his hair unkempt and feet covered with dust: if he is appointed in the vanguard, he is perfectly satisfied with his post of guarding, and if he is appointed in the rearward, he accepts his post with satisfaction; (he is so simple and unambiguous that) if he asks for permission he is not permitted, and if he intercedes, his intercession is not accepted."

Is there any word "black" there? Dinar and dirham means money, so slave of dinar just like slave of dollar (materialistic people). Get your words right first.

It is not about race it is about a religion with a small group of violent fanatics trying to impose their will on those they disagree with or dislike.
I don't hate Muslims I am wary of Muslims who want me dead because they don't like my culture.

Islam is also for racism. Be sure to look these up in context in PRE-911 translations of the holy books. Best to educate yourselves to avoid racism.

Ishaq:243 "I heard the Apostle say: ‘Whoever wants to see Satan should look at Nabtal!' He was a black man with long flowing hair, inflamed eyes, and dark ruddy cheeks.... Allah sent down concerning him: ‘To those who annoy the Prophet there is a painful doom." [9:61] "Gabriel came to Muhammad and said, ‘If a black man comes to you his heart is more gross than a donkey's.'"
Ishaq:144 "A rock was put on a slave's chest. When Abu Bakr complained, they said, ‘You are the one who corrupted him, so save him from his plight.' I will do so,' said Bakr. ‘I have a black slave, tougher and stronger than Bilal, who is a heathen. I will exchange him. The transaction was carried out."
Qur'an 9:97 "The Arabs of the desert are the worst in unbelief and hypocrisy, and most fitted to be in ignorance of the command which Allah hath sent down to His Messenger."
Tabari II:11 "Shem, the son of Noah was the father of the Arabs, the Persians, and the Greeks; Ham was the father of the Black Africans; and Japheth was the father of the Turks and of Gog and Magog who were cousins of the Turks. Noah prayed that the prophets and apostles would be descended from Shem and kings would be from Japheth. He prayed that the African's color would change so that their descendants would be slaves to the Arabs and Turks."
Tabari II:21 "Ham [Africans] begat all those who are black and curly-haired, while Japheth [Turks] begat all those who are full-faced with small eyes, and Shem [Arabs] begat everyone who is handsome of face with beautiful hair. Noah prayed that the hair of Ham's descendants would not grow beyond their ears, and that whenever his descendants met Shem's, the latter would enslave them."
Tabari IX:69 "Arabs are the most noble people in lineage, the most prominent, and the best in deeds. We were the first to respond to the call of the Prophet. We are Allah's helpers and the viziers of His Messenger. We fight people until they believe in Allah. He who believes in Allah and His Messenger has protected his life and possessions from us. As for one who disbelieves, we will fight him forever in Allah's Cause. Killing him is a small matter to us."
Bukhari: V9B89N256 "Allah's Apostle said, ‘You should listen to and obey your ruler even if he is a black African slave whose head looks like a raisin.'"
Ishaq:450 "It is your folly to fight the Apostle, for Allah's army is bound to disgrace you. We brought them to the pit. Hell was their meeting place. We collected them there, black slaves, men of no descent.
Ishaq:374 "The black troops and slaves of the Meccans cried out and the Muslims replied, ‘Allah destroy your sight, you impious rascals.'"
Bukhari:V4B52N137 "The Prophet said, ‘Let the ***** slave of Dinar perish. And if he is pierced with a thorn, let him not find anyone to take it out for him.... If he [the black slave] asks for anything it shall not be granted, and if he needs intercession [to get into paradise], his intercession will be denied.'"
