You are a reasonable person with whom I do not always agree. You are willing to discuss issues rationally. Thank you. And I appreciate your reasonableness. However, I have a hard time with radical comments re. Muslims. I know a few Muslims from Somalia, Iran and Saudi Arabia..........they are not as a rule any more violent than other people. In fact, I find the devout Muslims rather gentle..........more so than Americans. However, like with all religions, there are the radical fringe. And they are the ones who believe 'in killing the infidels'. And just for the record.......Islam was founded by Muhammad. Islam shares many of the same beliefs as Christianity and Judaism........for an example, the one God. In fact, before Muslims prayed to Mecca, they prayed to Jerusalem. Like the Jews, they believe Jesus was a prophet, not the son of God. The House of Abraham was responsible for both the Christians and the Muslims. In fact, Abraham is the one who created the Cube in Mecca where the Muslims pilgrim to each year. The Cube is the religious center for all of Mecca. To portray the Muslims as a violent people does a disservice to them and provokes the ongoing hate between our two peoples. You are better than that.
