their holy book tells them to war with all who disagree with them
If they cannot convert or make then subject to them they have to kill...
Not much of a religion of peace.

Beslan, 9/11, 7/7 in the UK, failed doctors in Glasgow Airport, A teddy bear named Mohammed, suicide bombers almost daily, a raped girl in Saudi getting 6m in jail and 200 lashes, beheading in public for rejecting islam, Sharia law dictating how a country is governed, no gays in Iran (yeah, right!) and on and on and on.
Sexually-repressed Saudi youth obsessed with porn, etc, etc.
Why don't the nice muslims DO SOMETHING about the bad publicity??? Scared? Yes - I believe so.

That there's probably a lot of good ones out there, but they seem to be too cowardly to stand up and fight the fanaticism that is dominating the view of their religion... so they either support the radicals, or don't care enough to stand up and say something against them.
I spent a year in the middle east when I was in the military and I saw first hand how CRAZY the radicals and the extremist are. But I also saw that there were some really nice people there. Just the nice people did or said nothing about the extremists.

Not much about their doctrines, beliefs, etc.
I had a good friend in grad school who was from Kuwait, and Muslim. We shared a lot about our faiths to each other.
It surprised me how much we had in common, and how well she knew the Bible. She was no terrorist, she was an honest person following her beliefs. I respect that.

Actually not that much, I have been unable to get hold of a quran to read, until recently I hadnt even laid eyes on one, but I do intend to read one in the near future and make up my own mind on how they came to their beliefs.

that im one and those that truely follow the real teaches are peaceful. those extremist just want an excuse to do what they do. real Islam teaches to only kill for protection such as an intruder or something. not innocent men,women and children.

Nothing besides that I have yet to hear them argue with me about their beliefs or try to make me "see the light" which i find more respectable than some of the other religions out there.
