Yup, yup, yup. And Muslims have joined unions, teachers, public employees, school kids; well, anyone BUT defense contractors/bankers/ speculators/ and CEOs as targets of attack.
Okay, if the Muslims think they are unfairly being picked on, why haven’t we heard them on TV and Radio condemning the Muslims who HAVE committed terrorist acts? The Muslims in the USA are so touchy about hearings on terrorism in the Muslim ranks, but they are NOT coming out against it. Why not??????? Because they might not be against it??????
Also interesting that a religion that DID bring scientific and cultural enlightenment to Europe crashed and burned intellectually when the radicals (definitely just people) fighting each other for power took charge and killed the prophet’s intent, just like with Christianity and Judaism.
Object lessons from mythology are fine, until the “interpreters” take over, and take themselves too literally and seriously.

^ and ^^ We don’t hear them on TV and radio because it’s not the kind of stuff that bring in ratings, fear does.
Go check on facebook and the internet, where information and opinions don’t have to rake in a proffit to go through, and you’ll find many of those.

Too bad people take the ancient ramblings of ancient men who didn’t understand the natural world seriously. And that goes for all of the ‘holy’ books.

Eddie, how about the many, many “crimes” (such as eating pork), that are punishable by death in Deuteronomy?
If all or even most muslims were stupid enough to take those things seriously, things would be in a shape much worse than they are now.
