I yearn for the resurgence of Catholic culture in the world, and the end to many of the Protestant faiths.
i hope if you were more specific in your questions
I wonder that same thing myself.I would like to know why Muslims are blowing each up?
My answer to the OP’s question was going to be, “Hate.”i hope if you were more specific in your questions
i means not to generalize the hate of muslims to christians or jews because we don’t hate them , it will be more resonable if you said why we hate israil and why we hate america or whatever the place of conflicts you wanna to talking about
hence we can construct the discussion correctly
Thanks for confirming my responce, because I thought for sure that Muslims would deny that fact and claim that the violence is justified.a simple word: Jihad
Brigette Gabriel, a Maronite from Lebanon and founder of AmericanCongressforTruth.com wrote a book on this very subject: BECAUSE THEY HATE.My answer to the OP’s question was going to be, “Hate.”
Hate is what “causes” violence.
I can’t agree–Muslim history is mostly a story of violence against everyone, including each other; we’re latecomers to the party.In my opinion, it seems to be more of a reaction to our own culture.
Muslims feel disgusted with democracy and “freedom” because of things like homosexuality, abortion, atheism, and the resurgence of paganism. Combine this with the hell (colonialism, both World Wars, the Gulf Wars, the founding of Israel) that the West has put many Islamic countries through, and throw in some ridicule towards their culture and it is no wonder why they all want to kill us. I myself am not too keen on the “greatness” of dumbocracy and “freedom”.
However, I also know that this is just some wild dream of mine, especially since Catholicism has been so castrated by democracy, the Priesthood of All Believers, communism, capitalism, sexual freedom, and secularism. It depresses me to no end.
I can only hope that the Muslims hold out for just a bit longer and preserve what they have left. With the West’s constant assaults into the Middle-East, it is a great wonder how they have lasted this long.
I disagree, everyone’s history has been violent. Us Christians have committed our own fair share of atrocities, as have the Jews, the Hindus, the Buddhists, the Atheists, the Pagans, etc. They are as violent as any group in this world, so I think it is unfair to label them as any more violent than our own democratic partisans, communist rebels, or anyone else who thinks killing is going to make everything better.
Because upon the death of Mohammed, Islam fell into multiple schisms over who would be the successor and how the successor should be selected-- election or heredity. In the following centuries, several other schisms/heresies within Islam developed.I would like to know why Muslims are blowing each up?
I just want to correct you on a point, the Baha’i are not Muslims. They believe in the God of Abraham like us Christians, Jews, and Muslims, but they believe God keeps sending prophets to us, whereas the Muslims believe that Muhammad was the Last Prophet. The Baha’i are also more inclusive of other faiths as opposed to more traditional Abrahamic faiths.
Jean Kirkpatrick delivered a speech about you while in the UN. You should look it up.In my opinion, it seems to be more of a reaction to our own culture.

Send me a link.
They are a schism/heresy of the Muslim faith. Baha claimed to be the Messiah promised by Islam, they practice the Muslim principles when it comes to the pillars and pilgrimage to Mecca. Yes, it is a syncretist religion that incorporates aspects of many religions. It’s origin is as a heresy of Islam in Iran.
Wait a minute…are you actually *endorsing *jihad? Are you saying that there’s something *admirable *in Islamic violence?
I don’t endorse Jihad if you must know. I think that killing others for any reason is perverse and despicable. However, if people really feel the need to kill each other (which they should not), they should do it in the name of faith instead of money, democracy, or some such other nonsense.
