You touched a nerve! Of course, the Old Testament tells us to k**l lots of people - even our children if they are disrespectful to us. There ARE still people who (selectively) accept these teachings of the Bible and feel that gays should be k**led, etc. People can deny it all they want, but it is there in black and white. Just like not ALL Muslims believe that infidels should be k**led.

I don't remember any mosques showing concern after 911.

Unfortunately, your Father wasted time creating you.... I asked for facts and got a bigot's response - an insult.

You certainly have the correct user name.

How does the former President's actions or inactions mitigate the missteps, errors, and actions of the current President? He is supposed to be better than the previous President when in all actuality he has quickly become far worse.

I do not know for sure but, doesn't their religion call for infidels be k**led if they do not conform?
I have heard this but have not read it myself. I'm not saying that they are all bad but a lot of the recent terrorist attacks have been due to religious reasons carried out by the Muslim faith.
Answer to your question is no.
Some of the radicals behave this way...gives all Muslims a bad reputation in the minds of some of the more limited folks.

I think the phrasing in the playbook is:
But, but Obama! But, but, Hillary!

They do not believe in the same God.
There is more common heritage amongst Jews, Christians, and Muslims than most of us are aware of or want to admit. They are the three Abrahamic religions, like it or not.
The Qur'an tells the story of the birth of Jesus, and other stories right out of the old testament. Eid al-Adha is one of the major Islamic holidays, a festival marking the culmination of the annual pilgrimage to Mecca. It originated and continues to be a celebration of Abraham offering Isaac as a sacrifice to God and God's mercy upon them. The Qur'an tells the same story of Abraham as the Old Testament.
We may all three have different views of God's commands and wishes, but it is the same God that we look to.

It's domestic terrorism and ALL terrorism should be called out. Not all Muslims are the same any more than all Christians are. Shall we despise all Christians because of the acts of the Oklahoma bombers?
