June 4, 201214 yr Since the mainstream media doesn't show you the news going on in the Arab World and Muslim American news, I thought I could keep everyone up to date on events happening in our world. In Tunisia you get your head chopped off for converting to Christianity, just watch the sick video, all in name of Allah, and I thought Islam was a peaceful religion. Graphic Video: Muslims Slaughter "Apostate" in Tunisia :: Gatestone Institute CAIR shows true colors and calls for Destruction of Jews. This is the same group who wants their people to be treated fair. Dawud Walid, the Quran and Jews :: The Investigative Project on Terrorism
June 4, 201214 yr Once again, in nations like Tunisia, you don't have freedom of religion. You do in America. Seriously, why is that so hard? That doesn't make it right, but stop trying to paint Muslim-Americans in a negative light by linking a story about something that is going on in a country halfway across the world with different governments and ideals.
June 4, 201214 yr Author I never said anything about Tunisia except I thought Islam was a peaceful religion, so what was wrong with that. As for CAIR, they are based in America and are Muslim/Americans and act like they are for freedom and peace, how can you be for peace when you call for destruction of Jews.

So, in answer to UKMF's post, you freely admit that not all Muslim Americans are as you perceive CAIR to be?
June 5, 201214 yr Author So, in answer to UKMF's post, you freely admit that not all Muslim Americans are as you perceive CAIR to be? Not all Muslim Americans are like that, some are very nice and better citizens than most. There is all kinds of trash, white trash, black trash, brown trash. Bad thing is when a leader of a group says racist remarks, it make the whole look bad.

But with the way your posts are perceived then I should be just as appalled at all Christians even though these crazy preachers with snakes and homophobic hate filled remarks represent a small portion of Christians.
June 5, 201214 yr Author True.

Yeah I understand, BUT these snake handling preachers ain't taking a knife and cutting someone's head off either.
June 5, 201214 yr Yeah I understand, BUT these snake handling preachers ain't taking a knife and cutting someone's head off either. Several abortion doctors' final sight was down the wrong end of the barrel of a gun in the hands of a Christian.
June 5, 201214 yr Yeah I understand, BUT these snake handling preachers ain't taking a knife and cutting someone's head off either. That's not the point. The point is that a few crazies shouldn't define the whole religion. There are millions of Muslims in this world. Maybe billions. I'm not going to look down on them or their religion because of the nutjobs that are given publicity. I treat Christians and Catholics the same. I don't hate Catholics or priests because some priests molested altar boys(former altar boy) and some Catholic churches tried to cover it up.

June 5, 201214 yr On a side note, just watched the beheading video, I certainly hope that guy went into shock pretty quickly and didn't have to endure that in a conscious state for very long. I can't imagine that.
June 5, 201214 yr For the record, Catholics ARE Christians. My fault. No harm meant. I purposely used Catholics as an example with the altar boy cases and not to separate them from Christians. I got nothing but love for the Catholic church and faith.

I got nothing but love for the Catholic church and faith. :lol: I cannot tell you how many people I have known over the years who absolutely do not understand that Catholics are Christians. When I worked at SBUX one of my coworkers called me "one of THEM" on Ash Wednesday. :lol: She was "shocked" to find out that I wasn't Christian. :lol:

Most of this state thinks Catholics are anything but Christians. Perhaps there's a correlation, but perhaps not, but some 90 percent of this state is Southern Baptist, the same folks who said I wasn't a Christian when I was growing up.
