The people who blast abortion clinics have serious issues. The radical Islamist type is a soldier for God. They were taught/brain washed to do a thing and they do it. It is a totaly different thing. People who blow up an abortion clinic are like the unibomber.
More like 15 to 20 percent (estimate) which is around 150,000,000 strong.
I agree that we have done some things to encourage the problem. But in the end they would kill us anyway because we are subhuman Kafir’s who are considered cattle. That issue can’t come from us or our errors. It comes from the Koran.
Well that is good news. I was in a similar state of disgust towards all of us at one point. We must remember that God is not the mistakes of men. If you are for Jesus then you should be for his Church. It’s very easy to connect God to mans errors and evils. Don’t blame him or his Church for our mistakes, it will only drive you away from him.

i. Im just saying that the actions of the minority can be spread across the majority and in neither case is it fair.
ii. I stand corrected, and sadly itll get bigger in my opinion but it wont be cause of the teachings of the Qur’an (will explain further down)
iii. There was a time when the majority of Muslims loved the West. It isnt so much the teachings of their books that corrupted this but rather the death throws of tyrants whom attempt to politize themselves in an attempt to be treated as martyrs.
iv. Like the Bible, the Qur’an can be interpreted in many different ways for either very good causes and moral codes or very bad ones.
The problem with lumping them all in together is that you are polarizing the issue. Its basically if you renounce your religions youll never be accepted vibe (esp on the forums). This can esp. painful for muslims whom have lived a peaceful life and are westerners themselves. Im sure theyd feel betrayed because religiously they be muslims, they are of American/Canadian/European citizenship. By denying them and condemning them on the basis of what they are as opposed to who they are will only breed more terrorists as they forced to their side lest they be outcasts from both societies
Western culture does discriminate nowadays. Alot of my gfs family was fired soon after 9/11 their only complaint was that they were Muslim. (This is in Canada)
By attacking them on all fronts all we are doing is feeding the extremists lies and it becomes a self-fulling prophesy.
v. Never want to call myself a Christian

I think I should clarify, as a guy with an interesting idea I like Jesus and his message. That si not to say I believe him the son of God or the messiah. I hold him in high esteem for his good ideas as i do other ppl; Aristotle, Plato, Socrates, Buddha, Kant, Muhammed (the Qur’an is very beautiful grammatically) etc.
From what I can see, organized religion is not about theology, or even what your God(s)/prophet/messiah said what you should do, rather, its about how your rituals and idiology makes you better spiritually than someone else.
