I Know That Not All Muslims Are Terrorists

It is absolutely true that not all Muslims are terrorists however it is also true that a disproportionate number of terrorists are Muslims. So what remains is how to weed out the terrorists from those who wish innocents no harm?

So, finally, out comes your agenda.

I never once thought of God as a real estate agent. Anyone who has ever given history an objective look, understands what cycles mean. The first temple, the second temple, the Romans, Islam's early empire, the Crusades, the Ottomans, the European Colonialism, the thousand year Reich.

I think that religious zealots, no matter what religious denomination they belong to, have a clear opportunity to destroy the world, and they will take it. Currently, there are two groups who top the list: Radical Muslims, and born again Christians and Evangelicals, who insist on the hastening of Armageddon. As long as they persist in their quest, peace will be delayed, and people will suffer.

No - out comes ONE of my agendas.... not all of them.

Thats funny actually G-d as a real estate agent. We don't really own anything - he does, all we are are short term renters.

I agree with you about the zealots part but where the problem comes in is when they are all in each others faces - a bit of separation is called for. The Muslims have Mecca - leave them to go there - Jews Have Jerusalem and leave the Christians to Bethlehem

@pdqsailor1: Pre first Intifada, we used to go out to Betlehem on Friday nights, as Jerusalem would completely shut down. The Christian shop/restaurant keepers were ecstatic.

Betlehem was decimated by immigration to the US, so it's a majority Muslim city now.

Yes those two groups need to take some heavy duty chill pills. The entire concept of the "second coming" is warped and twisted on an "end of days" and armageddon assumption. When I say twisted I really mean it. The entire source of the concept has been twisted and churned out of Judaism from whence it originated only for them there is no second coming as they hold that the messiah has yet to appear. Jews have a very clear understanding of what happens when the Messiah comes and there really is not a lot of arguments over the issue among them.

I was in Bethlehem once many years ago at Christmas - a very different vibe than how it is celebrated anywhere else and it was COLD out in December there. Yes strange how Muslims feel that they should be in control over other peoples holy sites - they have this un natural penchant for Jerusalem too. I think every religion should control the sites that are truly holy to them - Christians have Bethlehem, Muslims have Mecca and Jews have Jerusalem - full stop no arguments.
