Islam is the second biggest religon in India with over one hundred million followers. Almost as many Muslims live in India as in Egypt and Iran combined. True, India is not a an Islamic state but don't think that they are some tiny minority ...
Exactly, but then i wouldnt know what iam talking about so just leave the argument already :rolleyes:
Britain is not an islamic country, but is becoming that way, does not mean its not followed here!
I wasn't addressing you - I was adressing PussyKatty. And what are you on? This is an open discussion board so I can add my ten pence worth whether you like it or not. Already.
:rolleyes:
And you wonder why people think UKIP are a racist party............
LOL!
How is Britain becoming Islamic?
From a population of...? Somewhere near 1bn isn't it?
That would hardly give Devil licence to refer to it as a "muslim state" would it?
A meaningless statistic.
You could also argue that as many, if not more, christians live in the US as in whole of Western Europe.
The constituent populations are not equitable, so comparisons are irrelevant. Unless of course you want to look at the percentage of their populations who are part of a specific religion...?
Please explain, in what way is the UK "becoming" an islamic country?
erm...what would you like an Muslim opinion about?
and i don't see how Britain is becoming a Muslim country in any way. you're always going to have some fanatics for every religion...i wish people would stop believing that ALL Muslims are fundementalists.
i'm a Muslim, i believe in my religion but i'm in no way at all extremist!
Maybe it seems that way because Christianity is in decline (blatantly) and possibly Islam is on the increase? Doesn't make the UK Islamic though, but perhaps a lot of Muslims who come here may appear more hardcore in practice that a lot of native Christian brits?
Doesn't bother me, maybe if we're faced with people from different religions and backgrounds in our own country when we're young, we'll learn to tolerate it more and generations may be less xenophobix in the future.
And Naz, don't take this the wrong way but, being as how I don't see many Muslims around here, I checked out some of your posts, and... again, don't take this wrong but... you're not exactly a... typical Muslim, are you? Given the strictures and tabboos of even the less extremist Muslim community... er, how's that working out for you? :nervous:
no offence taken, no i'm not a 'typical' muslim, but i still believe in my religion and respect it. to be honest, there are so many variations on all religions now, i doubt you could find a 'typical' muslim...people change things to suit themselves too much.
and i understand what you're saying about muslims who aren't extremists speaking out. i feel i fit into that category. thing is, i personally feel people are just too quick to judge and i think i can't be bothered with people like that. cos i kno the truth.
errmm....how was that obsessive? i would never try to force my views on others and thats not what i'm doing at all.
I was on about that Aisha person.
Um ... I was in no way supporting Devil. I was pointing out to Pussykatty, for her interest, that India is not just a nation of Hindus as people often assume ... and that after Hindus (but before Sikhs, Buddhists, Christians etc) that there are a shed load of Muslims. I agree, India is not a Muslim state at all but there are many of them. Sorry for any confusion.
