I'd be interested in learning about Hinduism and eastern Philosophy too.
How come some people call Muslims 'Moslems'?
NB: I haven't been around much lately. Do we have an aspiring troll ready to chip in about Muslims not being so 'touchy' about the killing of innocents?
I agree, that's what religion, doctrine and the promise of a good afterlife is all about. You could criticise Christianity with that too... a spiritual oxymoron so to speak. Yet it inspires... and anything that inspires can't be so bad...
But yeah, can't say I'm an expert on Islam, I only really know anything on paganism/the occult and Christianity.
If Westerners can march on the streets of London protesting against our country's involvement in the Iraq war, why does the Muslim community not hold a mass protest against those in it's ranks who hijack Islamic teaching to spread terror and destruction (as, for instance, the Basque population protest against the work of ETA in their name)?
It's all very well for the Muslim community to complain that they are not getting a fair press in the West but a more vocal condemnation of their own religious extremists would help to rebuild the trust between the societies. Their rather weak response and protestations thus far does not give me any inclination to seek out any 'attractive' side to the Islamic faith. It's a shame really.
I think it was on London Tonight the other day where Muslims were marching with banners about not supporting terrorism, so there you go.
Hmmmm ... not much good to those living outside the London area.
And fwiw, all my Muslim friends and colleagues condemn terrorism.
How about Christians also condemning Bush and Blair's fundamentalist Christian state sponsored terrorism?
They do .... the Archbishop of Canterbury, for example, has been very vocal ...
CH4 "The Children of Abraham" 8-9 pm Part 2 of 3
BBC1 A Muslim in the Family 11:30 pm-12:00 am
Converting to Islam isn't an obvious choice or an easy one in the current climate, either for converts or their families. So, why have 14,000 Brits taken that leap of faith?
In some Muslim countries demonstrations are illegal.
For Moonrat:
Muslims, or the Muslim People-Plural
Moslem/Muslim-Singular
i think thats right.
The Reith Lectures: Climate of Fear
It's important to listen to it live, even though you'll miss the beginning few minutes, because I don't think the question and answer section at the end is included on the web broadcast, and there are some very interesting, provocative questions this week regarding Israel and such (the Q & A starts at about 10:45pm).
I was thinking more of Muslims in the West ...
0:00-01:00 Sharia TV - Channel 4
Last in the documentary series examining the implications of being born British and Muslim. In this episode, a studio audience from a variety of different faiths challenge the experts on how Islam views and engages with other religions. Presented by So Rahman.

Covering Up.
Investigation into Muslim identity in Britain and how many feel threatened by the public majority in the wake of the actions of worldwide Muslim fundamentalists. Four young British Muslim women explain why, despite misunderstandings, stares and insults, they choose to dress in the traditional way.
Rather than joing a debate we seem to just get a series of adverts... it's getting a little boring now...
Felt sorry for indoctrinated young women
Hello Mrs Pot.
You know that's almost as funny as your "If I was racist" comment... I love irony.
was sacked for generalising and 'implying' racism he was the LOWEST OF THE LOW! or SCUM or DIRT ETC! but when muslims get together and put 'whites' down (yeah i have replayed it on that sky recorder thing! very good if you wanna watch things over an over, such as music anyway...why when the womam said "protect us from wh....them" presenter says "who is them?" woman = "the people who dislike muslims" Why are they respected and persecuted?
Gotta be VERY clever to recognise that, or just be able to see the flaws in everyone not just whites who people think are racist!
Also why when Muslims are here, "we should respect and follow their dress, making allowances" but if we wore a bikini or strappy top or even shorts or skirt...we would be stoned! When my mate went to India to work in an hospital she was warned that she could be in much trouble if showing flesh!..... Pot Kettle Black?
Dos, we pride ourselves about being free and democratic in this part of the world, and that is why we don't enforce people wearing something they don't want to. If we did, we wouldn't be able to claim being better than the countries you're talking about.
If she had asked from protection from "whites" that would have been different because she would have implied that all whites were a threat.
You are right in your general principle that not all racists are white, though. Doesn make you racism right though, does it? You cannot complain about anti-white racism all the time you support anti-muslim/a.n. other racism.
A few muslim lunatics started a war against Western Christian Civalisation, they hated, we dislkied them for that! they can generalise but we cant? Where is the fairness in that?
She started to say white but corrected herself, but we started to say muslims but changed our wording we would end up like Kilroy! Double Standards anyone?
Woah! Look at what you said, it was a "few" muslim fanatics who "started" the war, yet you seem to think that this means that you should distrust all muslims...
You should also consider more about the "westerners" involvement in this whole farce. Unless you think that the attack on WTC was the start of it all...
Perhaps you also need to look at western religious fundamentalists (lunatics?) and the one who is currently the head of state...
You don't know what she was going to say - it could also have been "the whites who hate us..." Again you are making assumptions based on little information.
Oh, and Kilroy's comments were racist.
This is such a bullshit non-argument, its pathetic.
That could be seen the other way round as well.
