Because too many people wrongly believe that Muslims are terrorists. The truth of the matter is that most of them are not.

@HairbrushDiva 99.9% are not

@AthrillatheHunt 99.997% are peaceful and lovely people.

@helenS 3 thousandths out of a billion is still a pretty big number though.

@helenS I don't personally know any Muslims well enough to comment on them. There are a lot of them in my city, I see them walking around minding their own business and nobody bothers them. They tend to keep to themselves, at least here they do.

@HairbrushDiva Those I know are extremely nice people. I like them and some are good friends of mine. My best friends in university were Pakistani students. I had problems with those holier-than-thou Christians.

@AthrillatheHunt I estimate that there are about 50,000 militant Muslims world-wide, "Boko Haram", ISIS etc.; and there are 1.9 billion Muslims worldwide. That's about 0.003%.

@helenS I've nothing against people of any religion, I say live and let live. My friend Kelly converted to Christianity a few years ago and she's not the holier-than-thou type, she's the live-and-let-live type like me. There. Doesn't that prove that anybody of any religion (or lack of it) can be extremely nice people?

@helenS I like your analytical logic .

@AthrillatheHunt Thank you; but it's a curse, really. 😐

@HairbrushDiva Yes absolutely. I'm a religious person myself, and I hope I am kind and polite towards everyone.
HairbrushDiva · 31-35, F
@helenS I've never noticed you not being polite towards everyone. :)

@HairbrushDiva Thank you – I may have my moments though... 🌷
