DukeCrow,

You said, "Perhaps they're open to interpretation by someone who wishes to disregard the teachings of the Quran and the Prophet Muhammed (pbuh), but to anyone well versed in the two it is obvious that an armed response to those "provocations" is totally uncalled for and unjustified." What do we do about the radical Muslims, if they are not open to reason? You said yourself, " No amount of arguing or discrediting will convince them or their most diehard followers."

We can't allow them to exist and live with terrorism forever, can we? The Quran calls for self defense, as you told us in your previous posts, doesn't it? And the self defense is clearly physical...

You have to come up with a reasonable answer to what we do about radical Muslims, other than "but to anyone well versed in the two it is obvious that an armed response to those "provocations" is totally uncalled for and unjustified". What then should we do to respond? Didn't Muhammad himself use the sword to defend Islam? Why shouldn't we follow his example?

God Bless,
IGIT
