My point was that such religious people from all sides can be very strange, and make hateful remarks to people of other religions.

Yes... and my point was that they are generally removed from a position of authority when they do so, because the other members of the church actually have a ounce of shame.

I mean, the last I heard, Hamza was only ONE member of the committee that runs that mosque. Apparently he has not yet embarrassed them enough for them to call for his resignation as would have been the case in a Christian church (a truly christian one).

Thus, we can assume that the rest of these committee members share Hamza's militant beliefs. And since most Muslims seem to be claiming that militancy is not part of their religion, then does it not follow that Hamza is not a "true" Islamic cleric??
