Do the math. 1% of 1.3 billion people is 13 million.
Are 13 million people currently engaged in terrorist activities? If so, how come we don't have even .01% (1/100th of 1% of that or 1300) terrorist attacks every day. That would still be only 3% of the terrorists population (.003% of the total population) each year, so they could keep that up for 30 years before anyone had to commit a second terrorist action.
When you look at the numbers irrational to think even 1% or even 0.01% is actually terrorists.
Compare that to more than 1% of the US population being felons.

Well as far as i have heard the 72 virgins idea is not from the Islam from the middle east, it came from Muslims in the USA. Islam is a religion of peace, i have heard of passages saying to go out and fight the non islamic people but it said fight them until they cannot fight, then accept them in. Islam by its original meanings was not terroristic or supposed to go and start a war everywhere. If you say that they are only terrorists and the religion is trying to bring down the west and everything, then i have no respect for you at all, and you truly have an american mentality to things, that being if its not christian and from the western thinking then its not good to have. Islam is one of the greatest faiths to have come about, they were advancded far beyond the west for centuries. Without Islam the West would still be just comeing out of the middle ages. BUT back to my point, Islam is not a religion of terrorists, there are christians and others of differant faiths who blow things up and die doing terror acts but they are labeled as martyrs or psychos or something else, anything besides terrorist but as soon as Islam is spoken of people think of terrorism, WHY???? Has the west really fallen from a point of intelligence down to the level of simplistic moronic barbarity.

Very few people believe all Muslims are terrorists. The word Muslim gets thrown out there a lot which may give the impression that people think the entire Muslim religion are angry western hating terrorists. Personally, I haven't met anyone in my life that believes that.

I don't know about all that but I'm pretty sure heaven is gonna run outta virgins pretty soon. Plus who wants to have sex with virgins who have died, don't ya think there is a reason they went that long without having sex.
Their holy book specifically instructs them to kill non-believers. I don't know what that means but it sounds pretty bad.
Its not a positive religion, as if any is, stop trying to defend it. Religion is the root of most if not all evil, not the path away from it.
Why are there so many Islam apologists all of the sudden. What has Islam possibly done for your life? I have never had a Muslim come to my aid, help me with anything, why is everyone so defensive of them? It just doesn't make any sense.

The bible orders Christians to convert non believers and if they will not convert burn down thier cities.
Yet most Christians don't.
The bible refers to eating shellfish as an abomination but most Christians still like shrimp and lobster.
The bible tells us that we should put to death anyone wearing a garment made of two types of cloth - yet wool/cotton blends are very popular - especially in the religous south where they are cooler than straight wool.
Similarly most muslims do not follow every verse of the Koran literally.

"for that reason each and every Muslim could desire to be a fundamentalist i.e. he could desire to stick to the basics of the religion of Peace: Islam. He could desire to be a terrorist purely in the direction of the delinquent factors so as to sell peace and justice interior the society." Your operative word there is "could desire to". reality is, human beings inspect terrorists who declare to be of Islam with bombs strapped to them working right into a crowded section and KABOOM! that's what human beings see. THEN whilst they see this they examine and discover each and every of the stunning violent areas of the Qu'ran that lower back up what the militants do and say. that's the actuality. As one individual has suggested " very lots could pick to have faith that no longer all Muslims are violent, in spite of the undeniable fact that the movements of many coach in any different case. Islamics are slaughtering human beings around the globe interior the call of peace."

Not all muslims are terrorists, but the majority seem to sympathize with them. That makes them our enemies in my book.

They are waiting for the go ahead from their Imams. Do you really think Muslims are loyal to a COUNTRY? Over their Imams? LOL!

If all Muslims are terrorists, then all Christians, Jews, Hindus, atheists, etc. are terrorists and we are all terrorizing each other. (Well, perhaps there *is* some truth in that...:-) )

The people who spout that nonsense *want* war and to stir up trouble. Some kind of mental deficiency if you ask me.
