Whats your honest opinion on these guys

www.thereligionofpeace.com.

I say radical Islamophobics.

I only got as far as ..'About This Site' to reach my conclusion.

The -ophobe is over-used. As with most so-called "homophobes" the so-called Islamophobe probably doesn't have a clinically neurotic mental aversion to Islam.

Having said that, their opinion seems pretty much in-line with the Kluxer's view of Judaism. They take the actions of a few and stuff out of context and then string it together in a global conspiracy of great malevolence. Give me a break.

Ok, I agree the 'phobe' thing is out.
However, There are plenty of people outside of that crew who refer to Islam as 'the religion of peace', sarcastically I am sure. Just wonder if they learned that label from the www.thereligionofpeace.com folks.

I made my point. Those who sarcastically refer to Islam as 'the religion of peace', are identified as aligneing themselves with the radical group www.thereligionofpeace.com.

Happy hunting gentlemen.

It's a group of folks that are tired of world wide terrorist attacks that ignored and thought by many to be nothing to worry about. Many in islam wish to conquer the world- as nearly all religions want to do- "spread the word of God" and widen the sphere of influence of whatever religion the followers belong to. Most members of islam are from countries that are not economic powers- and it seems that islam has some element in it that is perverted by some members so that they feel they need to act out against anyone/any organization that threatens islam. To many that is "the west", to many others why they choose their target is obscure. The certainly is proof in the sheer numbers of attacks that those who say islam is the "religion of peace" are clearly incorrect in that name.

The problem with your selective thinking, is that your brush is a whole lot wider than you think. There are many billions of Muslims, and only a tiny fraction are radicals.

There are far fewer Christians, so every one of them that goes off the deep end represents a far higher percentage of all Christians.

What percentage of Muslims are radicals? What percentage of Christians are radicals? Unless you can answer those questions, thinking people will find your above argument quite unpersuasive.

What of the cheering in the streets? Well, I've read self-proclaimed Christians cheer that abortion doctor shooting dude. They wouldn't do it themselves, but they cheer the action. Just like many Muslims cheer the actions of others who do things that they themselves would never do.

Until Christians unilaterally disavow these radicals in their midst (that means EVERY ONE OF THEM must do it), your demand that Muslims unilaterally disavow the same also is quite unpersuasive.

Fact is, I would most probably have a better dialogue with a tree.
Or I could say that I cannot get my head around the 'turn the other cheek' thingy. If I am slapped..more than likeky I will slap back, maybee even Poke some eyes.

They will never disappear as long as muslims continue terrorist attacks around the world against innocents, and it certainly appears that will continue. I certainly hope both disappear before they take you or your family, or mine.
