Muslims in Great Britain offer shelter to storm victims

For those who feel that Muslims in Great Britain, and by extension in the United States, are unwilling or unable to "integrate" with the country's population, consider these stories: https://www.indy100.com/article/mosque-ireland-turning-itself-into-homeless-shelter-homeless-people-aid-winter-snow-8234661
Surely these Muslims and Mosques meet the definition of good neighbors! I imagine other such instances can be found elsewhere. Among other citations a quick Google search for Koran good neighbor here is one: http://aboutislam.net/reading-islam/about-muhammad/the-prophets-strong-words-on-kindness-to-neighbors/ Sounds much like the Bible, doesn't it?

Surely they do, and I can't recall anyone ever claiming that all Muslims are terrorists, of even all are bad people.
None of that deflects from the truth that nearly all terrorists are muslims.
To take it a step farther, there is an obvious cultural element to go with the religious element.
If you talk to any native middle easterner who came to the US as an adult they will tell you its because of the culture of barbarity.

I expect if you look long and hard enough you can find some goodness in almost any group? But that doesn't necessarily mean the group as a whole is good.

Would you extend the same courtesy to the 80% of Evangelicals that have gone bad?

Evangelical Christianity Is Facing a Political Crisis: It Will Need More Than a Makeover. The Christian faith was the real loser in the Roy Moore/DJT campaign.

Ok, evangelicals do have a brand problem—but they also have a major product problem.
Bible-believing born-again Christians, aka evangelicals, have had a brand problem since Jerry Falwell’s Moral Majority sold the born-again movement to the Republican party in exchange for political power a generation ago, forging the religious right.

I use to trust everybody but considering how the world is today I am suspicious of almost everybody until I know if they are good people. I no longer just give them the doubt. I don't like that but civilization and the world is almost totally different than it was 30 or 40 years ago. It's become a lot more difficult to find true good in the world but quite easy to find evil most times without even looking for it.

Yes, Muslims have been a benefit to the UK. They adopted the language, the laws and are productive citizens.
The UK is a better place since Muslims have migrated there in large numbers.

Please let us know what you have been smokin' so we don't accidentally get some of it. We have relatives living in the UK (London and N. Ireland) and it's certainly not the story we hear. You know what they say about at least one rotten apple in every barrel, well the reverse is probably also true. There is at least one good apple in every barrel of rotten ones.

You are out of your f..kin mind! Or is your idiotic post a put-on or a parody? Are you on some other planet and unaware of the rape problem, the female mutilation, and the terrorism?
