terrorism is not a real problem. 3,000 americans in one day may be a tragedy. but it is not the world's end. and it was going to happen at one point in time anyway. like the oklahamo bomb. some nutter is always gonna want to blow stuff up. but we do not need to stereotype these people for the case of a few nutters. to stereotype an entire race and religion over one day's violence no matter how evil is not worth it.

and about the koran being such a nasty book. it really isn't. while it may have some nasty violent parts, so does the bible. a little list is needed here.

jericho
sodom and ghomorrah
wiping out every first born son in egypt.
that whole noah thing was a bit ott
wiping out the egyptian army in the red sea.

and the torah says the same. and some of the koran has similar stuff. a few battles. a bit of destruction. and some good bits with tolerance, loving thy neighbour and enemy and all that kinda stuff.

and it all depends on the interpertation. some people will agree with the old testament. others will not. some will follow the koran to the very letter. some will deviate. some people will always use the religious texts to preach hate. but this was not their real purpose and still is not their purpose. it is an abuse of a religion. in the same way we have these islamic nutters in israel in palestine you have right wing jewish nuts, and here we have right wing christain head cases to. but these people are few and far between when all things are considered and are not worth stereotyping people over.

"Jews didn't build a synagogue every freaking second, nor did they express ill-sentiments (not to say hatred) towards their country, and they most certainly didn't blow themselves up and kill others."

so all muslims are to be punished for a few bad eggs? how about we just knock down these mosques and we can build a car park over a few. somewhere else they did that.... berlin. and i express ill sentiments towards america. so are all british people now evil? there's far too many of us i say. we set up places for us to practice our religions freely and all sorts of badness. out we all go, very dangerous are we with our places of worhsip and not liking america. yeah..... because all british people are evil now because what i say. even if they were a thousand more like me (which there are) it's still of no concequence.

what's wrong with building places of worship? what's wrong with not liking a country? and certainly what is wrong with being muslim?
