Do you personally know a Muslim? [Spirituality & Religion]

Not online, in person. Just wondering. I keep hearing so many statements about Muslims and Islam, but do you know one or have a Muslim friend?

I don't know any myself.

I've never cared to have more than civil business type relations with them. I might have a Muslim friend online that I highly admire, and not even know it. I've always preferred to avoid the religion and it's adherents as much as I possibly can. Especially after I started reading some of the stuff in the Quran and Hadiths that made it very clear to me why I find their belief system utterly toxic. I personally wish there could a specific part of the world where Islam could be separated and isolated from all other belief systems. (Of course now I wish there could be the same situation for these people they call "social justice warriors"....so I guess I'm just Archie Bunker on steroids to some extent.)

If you would take the time to get to know some actual Muslims you'd see that they are human beings like you and me, and there is a lot more to them than their books and belief system - which they probably have a different understanding of anyway.

@CinnamonCocoa: I think the political ideology that they parade as a religion is the most toxic and destructive belief system on earth.

@puck61: Like I said, that's easy to think if the only Muslims you interact with are in your imagination.

@CinnamonCocoa: Oh come on! Our noses are rubbed in the bitter fruit of their incessant destruction 24-7. They destroy cultures, kill, torture, and oppress constantly and they have been doing it for 1300 years. They destroy history! They ruin the countries that they swarm.

@puck61: The ones swarming around me on the bus, on the street, at the store, at the uni, in my living room, etc. are not doing anything of the kind.

@CinnamonCocoa: Sure. How did Sweden suddenly become the 2nd place rape capital of the world, when it used to be the closest thing to a social utopia on earth. Why are they making instructional pamphlets on how NOT to harass women and passing them out. Why do they attack women and chant anti Jewish slurs and taunts, why is there so much filthy subhuman behavior taking place in places where in virtually never happened before? Open your eyes for crying out loud! They evidence is beyond overwhelming and all you "tolerant" borgs focus on everything but the Bhurka clad elephant in your living room. WAKE UP!

@puck61: You're talking about a selection of sensationalistic news reports and I'm talking about people I know and interact with every day.

" Muslim extremists want to kill non Muslims. Moderate Muslims want Muslim extremists to kill non Muslims." The sooner everyone realizes this, the better off the world will be.
