    The tone of your post implies that you are genuinely afraid of the average Muslim person.

    I really don't want to say anymore...

    so long as religion has any say in human life, yes.
    He has good reason to be. The US/UK foreign policy towards muslim countries isn't exactly very endearing.

    Islam demands loyalty to the religion over loyalty to the state. This isn't an issue in muslim countries, but in western countries, which are mostly founded on christianity, it can be. Rightly or not, the wars in the middle east are widely regarded as wars against islam by the muslim community, so foreign policy regarding those countries is provocative.

    one man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter.

    You still havent said why I should fear the average muslim though. My local corner shop, as so often the case is, is run by a muslim family, are you suggesting that I should source my daily paper from elsewhere?

    In my experience, the average American Muslim is more rational, tolerant, and sane than the average American Christian.

    With most of the Christians I've met:
    "I hate going to church. The priests are always talking about their wives' life stories and making me fall asleep."
    "What sect are you a part of?"
    "I'm an atheist, actually."
    "...What? You Godless heathen! DIE MOTHAFUCKAH!"

    With, frankly, all of the Muslims I've met:
    "I hate going to church. The priests are always talking about their wives' life stories and making me fall asleep."
    "What sect are you a part of?"
    "I'm an atheist, actually."
    "Oh, that's cool. I understand."

    Of course, that's just my experience. Maybe Loony lives somewhere where all of his Muslim neighbours are terrorists, I don't know.
    This girl I had a crush on in middle school had the cutest hijab... Those were good times.
    Huh? What? Oh yeah, terrorism. Right. Where were we?

    Anyway, I really don't blame the opposition to US foreign policy (I don't know much about UK's). Bush made it a war against terror, a war against non-Christian ideologies, the kind of war that religious extremists, Muslim, Christian or whatever, just love. And the soldiers getting deployed out there? Most of them don't know a thing about Middle-Eastern culture. It's sad, but at least it can be pretty comical sometimes. They're raising their hands to stop traffic, but over there a flat palm facing away from the speaker is like a hello wave. Those guys don't know that they're saying "Hi, how's it going?" to everyone they're trying to divert.

    No part of war is comical. Camaraderie(SP?) just makes it easier for those involved.

    The guys desecrating the bodies of civilians and pretending to eat brains don't seem to think that.

    Well, to each his own. If someone wants to value the sanctity of life and acknowledge that every person killed was a child once, then so be it.

    Re: Al-Qaida calls on US Muslims to attack America

    So abnormal people are now everyone else, so we should find it funny? Your logic is horrible.

    I don't value life. What's there to value? We live and die, that's really the end of it. Everyone was a child is equally pointless, so what? -- this isn't to say that I am emo, or anything. Just that no one is special, and no one's children are special. 99.9% of people won't be a cancer cure, so who cares.

    Seriously. Finding anything to do with war, funny, is pretty much atrocious.

    killing each other and consuming everything is the nature of human. People always find a reason to kill each other. Killing is in our blood, its how we survive and rise to the top of the food chain.

    You know why the main reason americans search a war appromatly about a decade?
    they just need to 'Unload' there weapons somewhere, so there economy stays working.
    + Another main reason is oil... :s.

    Those extremies of all religions... why can't they just die...

    NO, this is not something I make up, this is based on facts.
    NO, I'm not a muslim.
