first i'd really like to see the information and support from these "major religious organizations that believe the same thing about Islam" as you do. please show me these organizations where they back up your claim that "islam is a terroristic religion." but i can tell you in advance won't find any, cause none of them share your extremist pov!

Me prove it? You prove it. Who are the most respected members that disagree? Please do tell.
Originally posted by BP: and again, i've read the koran and since i'm not a muslim i can admit that i need people who understand its teachings better than i do to explain it to me and answer my questions. however you're too self-righteous or too much of a know it all to admit the same.
I'm not a know it all, just compared to you I guess. Your liberal views will not let you believe that these people want us dead. You say you've read the Koran yet you won't admit it flat out says specifically if a non believer will not convert they should be killed.
like i said before. luckily for us your views are not representative of the majority or any part there of. this is not a liberal/conservative issue. the center of both groups agree that islam is not a terrorist religion and don't support your claims that it is.
your insistence on saying "islam is a terrorist religion" and muslims as "these people want us dead" is stereotypical of a lop-sided extremist pov held by islamic terrorist. it is an un-american pov and not representative of the stance of the US government. accept it or not, you are holding an extremist pov and it's just as bad as the terrorist saying that westerners/christians want to dominate the world.
since you are biased against my "liberal views" below is a quote from a conservative who knows what they're talking about...
Originally posted by JaTo: ... Islam is no more a violent religion than Christianity is. History bears this fact out. I have read the Koran and while it does condone violence in places, so does the Bible (OT). Extremists aren't usually known for taking a balanced view of things, so expecting them to NOT latch on to particular passages and thoughts to the exclusion of hundreds of pages to the contrary isn't surprising at all.
notice what he says about extremists? re-read what you've said in this thread and think about it because it relates to extremist on both sides of the fence. your views are a perfect example of a conservative/christian extremist.
you can't really come back with anything substantive or educated to say on the above material because you are an extremist. you see things only as you want to and ignore comments from both sides of the fence which prove you're wrong about your views.
you can't accept that systematic profiling is not a viable long term solution because of those views and you've basically proven yourself to be uneducated, closed-minded, lopsided, and irrelevant in this discussion. you should move on to another thread or speak for yourself only instead of trying to act like you represent mainstream christian/conservative views. thanks for proving there are idiots on both sides. i'm done responding to you.
