[quote='kandrathe' pid='178974' dateline='1281969352']What percentage of Muslims applaud the destruction of the WTC, and find OBL a hero for planning it? When was the last person burned alive as a form of capital punishment? [quote]
But does that have to do with being muslim or does that have to do with being from a country that is a sworn enemy of the US?
Half of americans would be dancing in the street if Teheran is bombed, but that doesn't have anything to do with them being christian. That has to do with the fact that they are a bunch of stupid morons, just like those Iranians, Indonesians and palestinians that danced in the street after 9/11.....heck it has to do with the fact that at least 50% of every human on this planet is a complete moron.
You should understand that there is a difference between a religion and cultural development. True....religions will always try to block progress, the Christians sure did try (and they still do) but laws and common practice are anyway decided by how grown-up a nation is. The middle east isn't very grown-up so they have more old fashioned practices we don't have anymore.....but does that mean their religion is worse than ours? Do muslims in the US protest in order to make stoning possible in the US? No of course not, they understand that freedom is much more important....and disriminating them because of what some other people did will not improve things.
