I watched something on TV where it said Muslims Bible or whatever you want to called it told them to terrorize. Is this true?
if you idolize Mohammad and Mohammad personally beheaded hundreds of jews how do you think that makes you look?

No, what fox news should have said was that Islamic extremists distorted the meaning of the Qur'an and used it as a tool to control other people.
Also 0/10 troll

You know how many people Yahweh killed in the Old Testament?
Yahweh's not a person
Can OP tell me what Muslims believe in, how they practice it etc.? I'm curious.
The problem with religion is that every single member of one claims to have the absolute truth. You label terrorists as extremists, but to them they are correct and you are a blasphemous heathen.

There is only one god (Allah)
You must submit to god.
Pray 5 times a day.
Must visit Hajj (First Musjid [yes it's musjid, not mosque...] ever built) at least once in lifetime.
Believe in word of God/ His messenger Muhammad.
Donate to charities
Respect all people (no hitting, name calling etc.) especially your spouse.
Bomb all who disagree (Obviously, just kidding about this last one)

What's so bad about that? Why all the hate for 'em then. Short of those silly people who blow things up.

Hajj is a pilgrimage, not a place to visit.
Muslims take the Hajj to Mecca / Kaaba.
Muslims are threatening the lives of the creators of the "South Park" series because they put Muhammad in a bear costume. They are very dangerous and unpredictable beings.
I have a few Muslim friends. They're all really cool people.
Is it not true also that the penalty for defecting from Islam to another/no religion is death?
Sounds pretty peaceful to me guys.
People are so stupid. Generalizing about Muslims and saying they're all terrorists is as stupid as saying that all Christians picket funerals and yell 'god hates fags, etc'. Theres always going to be someone who identifies themself as part of a larger religion, even if bat-shit customs and actions that completely go against the norm for the majority of their group. (or at least the one the say the are part of).
I'm an atheist in case anyone is wondering; but the prospect of attempting to associate one's own (sub-denomination/sect/etc/whateverthefuckyouwanttocallit) violent behaviors with that of a relatively peaceful peoples disgusts me.

Ever hear of Christianity? The bible says you should be stoned to death if you plant your crops side by side or wear clothes made of different materials? (Not 100% cotton? DIE!)

But WBC isn't even considered a Baptist group by other Baptist, and Christians especially deny them as belonging to Christianity.
Little fun fact is that way back when, Islam was the only Religion to respect women at all.

It's not true; no where in the Qur'an does it make any mention of that. Just like in other religions, such as Christianity people make 'inferences' as to what certain phrases/passages mean. They take their interpretation of what something says and use as a justification for their actions.
Does it say anywhere in the bible to picket funerals or lynch black people?

Extremists being extreme? No way!
One group of extremist Muslims does not represent the over one billion Muslims in the world.

But they claim to be; another group denounces their believes. I'm sure their are many Muslims (hell, it was in the news a while back even, some council did) denounce the radicals as being of their religion.
Therein, you can claim to be a part of a religion, and if anyone thinks you are part of the religion as a whole, they are going to make generalizations.
I find organizations like Fox News that spread the generalization that Muslims are all extremist, American hating Arabs more controlling and damaging than religion as a whole.
I would choose religion over Glenn Beck any day.
I always knew Muslim people weren't all like this. Also, Pjanoo, is wearing the Hijab and Burqa really necessary for Muslim women? I know they're supposed to dress modestly, but it bothers me a bit.
i pray 5 times a day no joke
I'm Christian and you're Muslim, but we can totally get along. You made me think much better about Muslims in general.

Ughh, :foxnews:.
Religion does exactly the same thing, and has always served the role that Glenn Beck has. Providing illogical answers to 'problems' in society in order to leverage political power in order to advocate their friends who may not be as superficially charming.
Fox News -> Right Wing Advocacy, lies, manipulation of large groups of people.
Religion -> Political Benefits, Make everyone think I'm the son of a god so they build me giant pyramids, etc.
I'm not targeting or singling out on anyone, just stating my opinion. Now then, back to the matters which actually pertain to this thread.

You are not forced to go, you are only asked to go if you have the ways to get there. i.e money.
Also, pretty much no Muslims like the Taliban they're a bunch of idiots honestly.

So you thought badly of them in the first place? Probably without actually knowing one too.
[QUOTE=PjaNoo^;21738613]6. This is widely believed, but the thing is, in the Qur'an it clearly states (ask any muslim) that even though christians and jews are from another religion, you should treat them as if they were muslims, and if you wish you may enter the religious headquarters of your friends religion which isn't islam, in education purposes and as company. (Synagogues, Churches, Insert other religion temple here)[/QUOTE]
It actually says to give the infidel three chances, and if they don't convert to kill them. The later chapters of the Qur'an are like this and are a lot more violent. The earlier chapters are more peaceful and similar to Christianity, and the consensus about this according to a lot of researchers is that it was intended to be like this so that the newcomers could be eased into the religion. So the later parts are meant for more devote Muslims.
