Allen. You said...." It is still simply wrong to blame all muslims for the acts of a fanatical minority.".... Agreed. And I have never done so. However I do believe that islam is THE problem the world faces to day. IMO most muslims are born into this cult and truly believe what they have been taught. They all read the same bible/quran and some muslims use it to murder and some do not but the words all come from the same source. I have read and posted articles by some muslim preachers who are trying to make changes to islam because they realize that islam does not fit in to days world. They are not likely to live long as islam does not permit descent. You said...." One thing that is very unfortunate is how the "them or us" attitudes of the Bush Administration have served to increase the numbers of radical Islamists. This only serves to reinforce the feeling throughout the Islamic world that the U.S. is engaged in a war on Islam, which in turn makes Americans less secure."..... IMO. It is them...islam....or us. And do you really think that the radical muslims increased their members just because Bush is in power? These nut bars have been murdering innocent people for many many years including many Americans. How many times has America ignored muslim crazies when they have bombed American interests and innocent people over the last 20 or so years....just to appease them hoping they would go away. Big mistake! America should have done what president Bush is doing to day. Confront them wherever they are. And IMO America is in a war against islam. And it will not matter how many times President Bush says islam is a religion of peace slowly people will realize what this war is about....ISLAM. You said....." PS: There are a lot of people who are Christian by tradition, haven't read the Bible, and don't really know much about Christ's teachings. There are also a lot of people who use their interpretations of Christian doctrine to justify their political agendas. ".... Agreed. You said...." While I do agree with some of what the article says, I'm not sure how it could be seen to respond to my post.".... Did not realize that you expected me to respond to all that you post.
