Here's an honest question. I hope you guys don't think that asking questions is terrorist-like behavior.

If it's in Muslim religion to hate christians and to kill them, why have terrorism/suicide bombers/terrorist attacks only been going on for 20 years, when Islam and Christianity have been around for thousands of years?

I hope you guys can actually ANSWER this instead of jumping at my throat and telling me to shut the fuck up like you usually do.

Just read overe this thread, and thought I'd mention a few tyhings others don't seem to have.

First: Muslims don't have a god named Allah. Allah is the arabic word for god. This is the same God that Christians and Jews worship. Muslims believe that Moses, Jesus, and Mahomed were all prophets of God. Mahomed just happens to be the most recent, so is geiven the most credibility.

The Koran does have some questionable things in it, that strike modern western readers as barbaric. It is easy to use these to paint muslims as monsters. But recall that the bible also contains these sorts of passages.
Consider: "Christians believe that adulters should be stoned to death. A son that disrespects his father should be killed. One who wears clothing made of a mix of cotton and wool should be killed. Slavery is OK. People who work on Sundays should be killed"
Is this an accurate portrayal of Christianity? All these references can be found in the bible!

Al Queda represents a very fundamentalist view of Islam, a view that is not shared by 99% of those who call themselves muslim, just as a low percentage of Christians are fundamentalists. Most muslims were as horrified by 9/11 as the rest of us.

Islam and Christianity have more in common than they have seperating them. Don't believe the hype.

Me? I think fundamentalism of any kind is dangerous, be it Islamic OR Christian.
