Nothing about that leap makes the points you're making incorrect, or the type that I even necessarily disagree with when we're talking about scope -- but as far as I can tell, it's a conversation that you introduced to this thread, not Riot, because you two are not talking about the same thing at all. The fact that the scope is greater now doesn't invalidate her original post in any way about people of all religions using their religion to justify that. These two conversations are not mutually exclusive.

Considering all the the people of Muslim faith that condemned OBL at the time - and continue to, and continue to condemn terrorist acts - you don't seem to have much support for your guess.



You might try reading the Koran - where it says absolutely one will not commit murder. Or maybe the part about Jesus- yeah, that Jesus - being a revered prophet.

Or maybe try to learn about religions - how all religions (including the "Christian" ones) have differing and various sects that follow and believe vastly different things. For example, there is that American one that has killed thousands of people over the years in the name of God, with their God's support, 'cause the bible told them to ... oh yeah, the KKK.



As long as they keep quiet and hide their religion from the hate of some of their fellow Americans, the fellow Americans that presume "they" are all killing terrorists because they happen to be of a certain religion others fear and misunderstand.
How can I not jump to a conclusion that is more than likely right after that last paragraph?

So Muslims can't practice their religion in America freely? There are worship centers all over KENTUCKY FOR ****S SAKE!!

We'll just have to agree to disagree then.

Just watch out for those KKK suicide bombers.

That's because it's not there. Never was.
