Two of my older brothers are Muslims and after I get to know Islam through their point of view, it is one of misunderstanding religions that get false facts from Hollywood, novels and in news the same way they did with Wicca. It is not the religion that is violent, only the people are violent
@Raz_at Calm down, ain't nobody gotta blow anything up. I have Syrian background by the way, so when I shade blacks and Arabs it's not racism nor self hate, I love myself but no blow up anything okie?
What about Timothy McVeigh? the white man started WW1, WW2 and potentially WW3 down the road. Evil Christians performed female genitalia mutilation. You are merely looking at a span from 2001-to present right? What about all the terrorist acts, bombings, killings, rapes, murders and more committed by non-Muslims? Are you going to say anything about that?
It's sad that you have zero faith in God and narrow a religion right down to the core that it's bad because you don't understand the true meaning of Islam. It's not hard, be a good person, follow Islam the right way by not being righteous. End of the day, we are all going to be judged by God on the Day of the Judgement and God will ask you why did you have a warped sense of mind towards Muslims/Islam? That's not my life to figure out, that's yours.
@thatguyfromtoronto Humans have evolved to become less barbaric. We acknowledge that which is lethal to society's well-being and refrain from such act as much as possible. Rape, public executions and female oppression is still a norm in the Muslim society.
You want me to just say, oh dang diggity, umpteen years ago humanity was like this so I dunno marry a 12 year old and enslave blacks if you want. Muslims are barbaric and backward. Even the Arabic side of my family is insane and they don't even know their culture. They just know they have Syrian in them, they want to eff their kids, treat the women bad and control everyone's lifestyle, act neurotic and claim they are more righteous than everyone else. Mmmmm I wonder what could be the reason behind their nature. I told my dad days ago that when I see him in the streets I'm beating his ass. No I wasn't molested but they hate me cause they couldn't. He's a black man and looks like bin Laden, fuck outter her with that bull
@Raz_at Actually I'm watching Dr. Strange on Netflix, drinking a cup of green tea, you don't know me so if you want to keep running your mouth like you know it all then go ahead but I will go deeper and say with that type of attitude you won't be truly happy with any guy who is or comes into your life.
As WWE hall-of-famer Mick Foley once said, Have a Nice Day :-)
I feel sorry for you with your racist, misinformed views, you don't even understand religion, you don't even understand God's message why are you talking as if you are some Harvard Med professor who teaches religion, your a random chick on GAG.
How stupid can you be? Do you know the United States created ISIS, Al-Qaeda & etc with Saudi Arabia? Do you know that Bush, U. S gov't was behind 9/11? Do you know that Saudi Arabia the same country that does weapons deals with the U. S does things like kill more Muslims every year than any other group of people, how come you don't mention that?
And by the way, Aisha the prophet's wife was actually 18 or 19... Go read a book and especially back then or even later during the medieval times, white men who were kings would marry women as young as 12... White men back, how you don't talk about that? You wanna know why Aisha was 18 or 19 when she got married to the prophet, because when Aisha's sister had passed away around the age of 28 or 29 she was 10 years older then her sister Aisha during that marriage.
Why is it that the U. S has a goal to bomb countries like Syria, Afghanistan & more, then spends $1.4 trillion on a war in 2002 which led to a recession, know ur facts before talking
There are ignorant people who hate all Muslims. Then there are the majority of those who take issue with Islam who really just have a problem with Sharia Law. If you support Sharia law, then that's a problem. If you don't support Sharia law, then you're on board with the rest of those that take issue with Islam.
Islam in the middle East isn't merely a religion, but a political ideology. That's what makes it uniquely different from other religions.
Well a lot of them tend to be very radical and extreme within their views. A lot of people fail to realize that there is a horrible side to Islam as well. I've seen these people and not all of them are nice and accepting of other cultures. I guess it's too politically incorrect to say that though. The truth is that a lot of Islamic culture absolutely advocates violence and hates America. They aren't to be considered the most peaceful of people.
Didn't mean to sound rude earlier but you are way too young to probably understand this. Islam is a religion of peace and thus a property of God, just like any other major religion. You have the wrong perception because some a**holes decide to f**k everything up. You want to know? Study the Qur'an.
Firstly in history Islam is the only who gives the women her rights & take her higher cause he gives her "alhijab" & this "hijab" lot of people consider it like a prison on women, do you think women now in us or uk or Canada... are free to do what to they want? like take any Dress. the Primitive Man wa naked & now we see in oir world that we come back to this habit (come back to Underdevelopment) Islamic woman take "hijab" cause it gives her Respect & Make it More Stronger. this is just one of thousends exemple why islam take some rights & we not calling it rights in Islam it's just an Excessive freedom.
people hate Islamic religion because there are places where Islam leaders are also political leaders, people hate Christian Inquisition and crusades too, and they were done by Christian leaders with political power. religion should never ever mix with politics and whatever religion mixes with politics will have terrible consequences and will therefore be hated by people
It's not. It advocates for murder. It puts the onus of deciding whether others live or die in the hands of individuals. It's literally endorsement for murder.
Islam is no religion of peace. It's a geopolitical engine of jihad.
The quran isn't the issue. It's the culture and how it has changed
It's how immans and mosques push their own versions of what they think is right. It's how sunnis fight shia because one believes in ali and the other belives in muhammed
Its all nonsense control for power and money. You will rarely find true muslims practicing for peace

Education has been a church monopoly for more than 1000 years. It still is , when reading some schoolbooks we used. Christian churches hated heretics. then there were wars with Ottomans too. There was also the oil shock which impoverished us during the 7ties (Reagan's excuse) then there were wars by the US against Muslim countries.
I don't hate their religion. Some versions of it are as retarded as the OT. But ever since humans got down from their monkey trees, all wars were fought for economic reasons: greed and power. Religion or nationalism are only propaganda TOOLS.

"All we see on the Internet are lies they try to distort the image of this religion with terrorism and violence." Are you claiming that Muslims are not responsible for the terrorist attacks for which they are blamed?
the majority of religions have been built on violence and in some ways have perpetuated violence. despite claiming to preach peace. The foundations of Islam is far from peaceful not was the Umayyad, Abbasid regimes that followed. it was only Charles Martel the grandfather of Charlemagne that managed to prevent the Islamic empire from taking all of Europe. this created a motive of revenge like the Greeks and the persians. however despite the war and conflict the Islamic culture gave us many benefits and is responsible for helping the west recover what they had lost from antiquity. as well as preserving many histories. mathematics and science were also key features in Islamic learning. Islam is still young compared to other religions it is going through its period of tribulations and hopefully the right side prevails and it can focus on peace.
@mr_mxy "Muslims" were the cause of 1zt and 2nd world war. Hitler was a "Muslim". People who bombed Hiroshima and Nagasaki were "Muslims". People who destroyed Babri Mosque (India) were "Muslims". etc.
2. you're saying Muslims are against gays. yes. Aren't most of the Westerners? If you doubt that go watch Philadelphia, Dallas buyers Club etc. And even now in the western world most people think it gross.
3. You have no proof that Muslims are terrorists other then their Slogan before a terrorist attack is "Allah u Akbar" or their names. So what if a person of religion whatsoever changes his name to say "James" and before killing someone shouts "Jesus be praised" would that make whole Christianity terrorist? No certainty not.
And I admit a FEW MUSLIMS do hate other religions not because of some personal grudge against you but illiteracy. Most Muslims believe in whatever their elders tell them they never question why. Thats why they "hate" religions.
Try and read next time i never said all muslims ate bad. But ignoreing thete obvious issues is stupid.
Yes msny christains are against gays that doesn't mean they would murder you just because of who you fuck at least far less than muslims would.
Terroist are muslims but not all muslims are terrorist. You act like its somehow bad to acknowledge a bad group of people following a certain beilief and yet MANY librals hold things that happened hundreds of years ago against people in this country. White men have to hear about slavery everyday. Or christians about the crusades (which were out of defense btw)
Like i said i am NOT claiming all muslims are bad just because a few assholes exists. If i judged everyone like that than there would be no good people on this planet. But muslims have a violent past and present that doesn't mean following the religion makes you bad.
Mainly because they don't understand it. Off course if doesn't help that's lots off people seem to be committing horrific crimes and claiming it to be in the name off Islam and I'm sure their is a connection somewhere but if you understood Islam (and I don't I have Muslim friends who do) then you would be able to make an informed decision for yourself :)
@thatguyfromtoronto First off I said I think its crazy, what you choose to believe is indeed up to you. I can respect other peoples beliefs, its just crazy to me.
Some time ago i had discusion about it, and at the end guy who was defending islam wasn't able to answer simple questions, islam isn't religion of peace, its invasive religion. Due to my believes in pagan gods, im leser than human in islam, and i studied islam at university as part of asia studies. won't say Christianity is better, but at least it has left blody past behind. Im open to discussion if you want, but then i want hard facts not feelings.

I consider most religions to be evil based on my own belief since to my free will is one of the highest regards to these spirits. Since islam forces there beliefs upon others and forces people to pray to a god i find it to have more in common with worshipping then free will and spiritual growth. To me god has no desire since i consider desire to be the root of all evil. Therefore being forced to worship is only something a devil would enjoy in my eyes.
To answer all the other commenters, islam has nothing to do with terrorism. It is the escapegoat used to make you feel unsafe. As long as you feel unsafe you will be for surveillance and your ok with your freedom being taken away. Its all a giant hoax with the cause not being your religion but your own governament.

Okay my opinion... my opinion needs some proof, desperate proof to prove that all this violence and kill yourself in a Jihad bullshiit is just fake... which we both know isn't a bullshit thing we can just overlook. hit me up on a person to person message and I'd love to wonder through the bullshit with you.. Otherwise.. You do see what the trucks of peace mean right?
One of the most common beliefs in that Islam is aggressive, is because in the Koran/Qu'ran it says to kill those who try to leave the faith. Another one is that the Middle East has the prodominant religion of Islam and since the beginning of the Crusades the "west" saw them as barbaric. Then with the rise of the Ottoman Empire there came the "Barbary Slave Trade" which enslaved white "slavic" people's from Europe, the slave trade lasted longer than the White enslavement of the Black peoples. The slave trade also really brought along the idea of Sex slavery where it became very popular to buy white children, and women and to rape them until they died.
it's the extremist side of Islam the many westerners see. honestly the violent extremist sides of any group are pretty bad, and disliked.
I find the Islamic extremists just as bad as the kkk or the neo nazis. I want to see more done to surpress these groups as they are dangerous to democracy.
The extreme abuses of Sharia Law, that is infiltrating our soil,, Some believe that anybody who doesn't embrace Islam, they would be considered infidels.
Plus, those that embrace Islam in the work place will stop the production of factories, effecting profits and efficiency several times a day to kneel toward Mecca. If employers are smart, they would make that their break and lunch.

I agree with you
Suicide bombing, beheadings, women's oppression, they wear bed sheets, their prophet is a pedophile, need I say more?
you watch tv dont you?

You're pinpointing Islam/Muslims into 1 negative category, fine if you want to hold onto this hatred go ahead, it's not my life.

if you hate islam then hate it but dont say lies about it because you watched tv.. muslims are way different that what you think..
@Raz_at y'all still here with that Islam bullcrap?, your Prophet is a pedophile, it started out bad, bye.

Because you muslims believe in things that don't exist.
And aren't right.
And are abusive and insane and trying to take us back to the medieval.
Islam is cancer and medieval.
We don't need it to make the world better.
I think you can say that about almost any religion
True.
i famous British philosopher said.
islam is a beautiful boat, but its the sailors who are wrong.
Get an education loser! You make Swedish/Europeans look so bad 😢

@annikaE Wonder what it means. And know you're on my side.

LMFAO!!!

@annikaE I was taking to GayHowellMeme. But I did say sorry lol
Stop hating other religions, all 3 religions aresame
@Kelly6 True
Two main reasons:
ISIS and women are considered less
Firstly in history Islam is the only who gives the women her rights & take her higher cause he gives her "alhijab" & this "hijab" lot of people consider it like a prison on women, do you think women now in us or uk or Canada... are free to do what to they want? like take any Dress. the Primitive Man wa naked & now we see in oir world that we come back to this habit (come back to Underdevelopment) Islamic woman take "hijab" cause it gives her Respect & Make it More Stronger. this is just one of thousends exemple why islam take some rights & we not calling it rights in Islam it's just an Excessive freedom.

It's not. It advocates for murder. It puts the onus of deciding whether others live or die in the hands of individuals. It's literally endorsement for murder.
Islam is no religion of peace. It's a geopolitical engine of jihad.
No one is basing their information of the news... it's from real life experiences with real people
In it's purest form, sure... it's not so bad... but today mosques and imams push bullshit on the people... false ideologies that are not true
I man asks people to donate money in a box for the people in need... what does he do? He takes a portion for himself
islam is the only one who hasn't modify the rools & curan since it's beginning.
The quran isn't the issue. It's the culture and how it has changed
It's how immans and mosques push their own versions of what they think is right. It's how sunnis fight shia because one believes in ali and the other belives in muhammed
Its all nonsense control for power and money. You will rarely find true muslims practicing for peace
so they are not muslims anymore
Sure that's what we could say. But that's not what they will say and that's also not what others will think
We will think they are true muslims
When in fact they aren't
Education has been a church monopoly for more than 1000 years.
It still is , when reading some schoolbooks we used. Christian churches hated heretics.
then there were wars with Ottomans too.
There was also the oil shock which impoverished us during the 7ties (Reagan's excuse)
