You are being naive alright.. in 2002 the Muslim soldiers slaughtered the Christians worshippers, the tension has been high ever since.

Why do you want to pick on this particular area?.. how do you explain Rwanda, Sudan in the past 20 years?

1998 in Jakarta, 2000-2005 in Ambon, Indonesia, 2004 Iraq, the list goes on.

The argument is Muslim - let's not bring in any other religions. I understand that each groups have bad seeds. In Islam however, I have yet seen one good muslim that can be considered a decent human being.

Please allow me to reciprocate. Oh wait, we shouldn't start sentences with "And" should we?[Help] Damn public schools!

well said

A body count would very heavily favor the Muslims, but we can't offend the Muslims 'cause we're a bunch of fuckin' pussies.

Hey look, something shiny!

People would do well to remember what religion murdered 3000 people on September 11, 2001, hint - it wasn't Christians or Jews. The 10th observance of that fateful day is coming up.

You brought up Ivory Coast, not I. I was simply alluding to the point that it that is never quite so cut and dry.

If you have never met a Muslim that could be considered a decent human being, then you have the problem.

And you "un-made" my day with that ignorant shit.

Delfuego out....

How you think that MY math (and/or typing skills) somehow proves your point is quite a leap.

And please don't site that Ivory Coast's situation is somehow; bad Muslims vs good Christians; is very mis-informed.

It is the generalizations and double-standards that perpetuate racism in all cultures. I don't put up with racism in other countries, and especially here in the USA!

Wasn't a comment on your math skills. I was making the point that when you pull stuff outta your ass it's pretty hard to make your arguments sound reasonable or well thought out.

BTW - Islam isn't a race...it's a religion.

Sorry to get OT but it pisses me off to no end when someone tries to compare the Islam and Christianity/Judaism. They have almost nothing in common, the former is a death cult, the latter promote life.

Just as with any religion, there are varying degrees of Islam from radical to label only.
During my years in Kuwait I have met both sides.
This isn't exclusive to Islam either, you will find this in pretty much all religion.


I dont advocate it, I will say that persecuting a Moderate or mild Muslim for the actions of the extremists is about as wrong as persecuting all of the Christians for the Crusades or for the crimes at Salem.
You can't throw all of them under one umbrella.

Sorry for not pleasing you. The world doesn't revolve around you. I was just responding to your specific response to ivory coast while you were ignoring the rest. You failed to realize that the Ivory Coast issue has been going on for a decade now.

Call me ignorant, but I was born in a muslim country, was forced twice to convert, and currently I am in and out of Federal court to help with the argument on the current federal govt is trying to change the status of the event in Indonesia from 'Muslim terrorist attack' to economic riot. The difference is hundreds of non muslim indonesian who came here and some of them are serving in the US military will loose their 'prosecution' status.

Since you think only .1% of them are extreme, I would love to see you fly out to any of the most moderate muslim country and prove your point.

I know some of the Vets here have been to the sandbox, and they can tell you that not all Muslims are bad- I'd tend to agree too if I am armed to the teeth. Try hanging out at the local market w/ US patch w/o any weapons - You'll see the true nature of Islam.
