Terrorists are normal people. We are led to believe they're something extra-terrestrial but there's a simple explanation to why exactly they became the terrible human beings they are today. They are oppressed members of society due to their income and quality of life. They were very vulnerable by the time they were turned into terrorists. All it took was for some propagandist to brainwash them into thinking that the only way the world can come to fairness and "equality" is if they eliminate anybody that doesn't fully follow God or isn't a dedicated muslim (Dedicated muslims are not bad people btw). What they were given is a false and digestible idea of islam. It's like the ideology that leads a bullied kid into thinking the only way he'll win is if he shoots everybody at school as a form of revenge. Islam never in any way encouraged people to start bombing malls and trade centers. It's all a man-made ideology.
The leaders of the biggest terrorism institutions all commit acts that God clearly forbids (one of which is non marital sex). Stop blaming the religion itself, and start blaming the people that misinterpreted it for their own benefits.
Quran (2:191-193) - "And kill them wherever you find them, and turn them out from where they have turned you out. And Al-Fitnah [disbelief or unrest] is worse than killing...
but if they desist, then lo! Allah is forgiving and merciful. And fight them until there is no more Fitnah [disbelief and worshipping of others along with Allah] and worship is for Allah alone. But if they cease, let there be no transgression except against Az-Zalimun (the polytheists, and wrong-doers, etc.)"
Is this actually in the Quran though? I hope this is not what the Terrorists take to heart!
imagine a world without white people? no slavery, no holocaust, no imperialism/colonialism, no school shootings, no KKK.... In fact, america wouldnt exist as we know it because the genocide of the native american people wouldve never happened.
If you can recognise the above is ignorant and small minded then you should be able to recognise this thread is ignorant and small minded.
Religion =/= extremism... and why single out Islam? Look up the history of certain other religions and you'll find ****ed up **** too.
I believe peaceful religious people deserve respect, the same way people of other beliefs and lifestyles deserve respect. When you cross the line by forcing your beliefs on others, taking away someone else's rights or hurting others physically or emotionally... then it becomes a problem.
I love my Muslim friends, my white friends, my gay friends and they all love and respect each other. We disagree on certain things, but we respect each other.
Hotshot such a mess. I'm totally disappointed. He jump to conclusion too early without studying how Islam love peaceful and now spreading those negative mindset
No it doesn't, but neither does any other religion. Every religious person should keep their stone age delusions to themselves. In this day and age, any form of religious belief should be shamed, not respected.
