In a documentary I was watching not too long ago, they were explaining how some mosques in America have terrorist camps below! and they were explaining how Islam is planning to over through the American system of Liberty and Justice for all, and replace it with Islamic customs! What is Islam?
God Bless!!

That's quite a slant you have on that.
The Muslims would say that Christians are meeting to try to overthrow the Islamic system of liberty and justice for all, and replace it with Christian dictatorships.
Of course, you can pick any two religions or even sects of a religion, and most likely find somewhere and sometime when they were killing each other.
Perhaps instead of concentrating on whether it is a Christian form of liberty and justice or an Islamic form of liberty and justice, we should just concentrate on what liberty and justice are and start from there.

Islam is a religion that is meant to follow the Quran. unfortunately many misinterpret it. I do not be live there are terrorists in every mosq but it is possible there are in some and Islamic leaders need to crack down on it more, saying after each attack it is against Islam is not enough. I do suspect the program you watched was biased.

muslims, like "4 ever muslim" or something above me somewhere, can't make up their mind about what islam is. the arabic word "islam" has nothing to do with with peace. it means submission. so, pick one.
yes, the goal of muslims everywhere is to make everything and everyone muslim. but, that is also the goal of christians. however, muslims will never be able to overthrow anything.
christians, as burtal as they were thousands of years ago, are smarter now. the know how to manipulate the human circumstance to gain more converts. that's why they send missionaries to poor countries. they're ready to pounce on vulnerable people. they don't consider (at least not publicly) anyone the "enemy". they encourage--very condescendingly of course-- to "love everyone." they're very good sales people and have an excellent PR department.
muslims, unfortunately, aren't that smart. al qaeda may represent a small minority, but, their sentiment are shared by many muslims who believe infidels should be killed and what not. as long as they're vocal about their feelings, they won't be able to overthrow anything. muslims who are completely anti-violence, especially the new generation, constantly find themselves defending islam against attacks. so they don't have time to be proactive, or they just don't care.
despite the growing number of muslims, the islamic ideology is declining. and i'll play my part to ensure that it declines more rapidly.
so stay calm.

Islam is a religion, but like some documentaries talk about the WTC, that they thought it was the right thing, like all those suicide bomb attacks.
They believe that people who are not muslim and stand in their way should be punished and killed.

A religion based on the so-called last prophet of god. Which he wasn't. He did all kinds of wrong,evil things not reflecting God-likeness at all. He did things and said things they started a new religion with that. Then went around conquering peoples forcibly converting them (or death). And they call it the religion of peace. They do things they way they were in when it first started which i believe was late 6th century.
It is not a good religion.

Misconception 1
Islam is `the religion of peace' because:
the Arabic word Islam is derived from the Arabic word "Al-Salaam" which means peace.
It might seem strange to think of this as a misconception, but in fact it is. The root word of Islam is "al-silm" which means "submission" or "surrender." It is understood to mean "submission to Allah." In spite of whatever noble intention has caused many a Muslim to claim that Islam is derived primarily from peace, this is not true. Allah says in the Qur'an (translated):
[2:136] Say (O Muslims): We believe in Allah and that which is revealed to us and that which was revealed to Abraham, and Ishmael, and Isaac, and Jacob, and the tribes, and that which Moses and Jesus received, and that which the prophets received from their Lord. We make no distinction between any of them, and to Him we have surrendered. [Arabic "Muslimoon"]
A secondary root of Islam may be "Al-Salaam" (peace), however the text of the Qur'an makes it clear that Allah has clearly intended the focus of this way of life to be submission to Him. This entails submission to Him at all times, in times of peace, war, ease, or difficulty.
