Yes this explains perfectly why you are afraid of them, because you bilndly give in to propaganda. Because propaganda is what you just posted.
You read something that someone said on the internet and took it as gospel and posted it as your proof. You have no idea if it is a true statement, and if it is, you have on idea what those 109 actually say, or if Muslims actually follow them.
There are violent things in the Bible too. It tells is to kill homosexuals, it tells us that in some cases rape victims should be put to death, it advocates genocide, I can go on and on. But most Christians and Jews do not follow these things, because religions modernize over time and people don't take these things literally.
So if you would not assume most Christians or most Jews would take every terrible thing in the Bible literally, why would you assume it of Muslims?
I'm not blindly afraid of Muslims. I'm afraid of the ones that follow the Islamic teaching to kill the infidels, and because I can't tell by looking which ones they are, I am concerned about all of them.
In regards to your last paragraph; I never assumed some Muslims are violent. I just listen to the news and presume that most of the time the news is substantially correct. I know we get lied to a lot, so I'm sure some of it isn't. If some of these suicide bombings in the news are true then I am persuaded that some of them are violent.
This isn't a court of law where I have to prove my point. This is a venue where people give their opinions.
I am not telling you to prove your point, and I didn't say you blindly believed Muslims were violent, I said you were blindly following propaganda, and I was refering to the information you cut and pasted off internet.
Because according to you, you looked no further than the first result, you didn't care if it was accurate or not, you didn't fact check it, you didn't care if the source was bias or not. You just cut and pasted whatever it said and said "this is why we fear Muslims". Do you really not see how thay makes you appear completely ignorant?
This is a place for opinions, you are entitled to express yours, and if I am of the opinion that your opinion is based on ignorance, I am entitled to express mine as well.
I copied and pasted the first thing I found because it substantiated what I thought I already know about Islam.
Look, you're probably a nice person. If you were a terrorist or a religious fanatic out to kill infidels I'm sure you wouldn't be on this site wasting your time talking to me. If you were my neighbor or coworker we could easily become friends as we got to know each other to be peaceful people.
Let me ask you, with all the prejudicial sentiment in the air against Muslims, do you ever feel a bit uneasy when you are out in public by yourself among non-Muslims, among Jews and Christians? Do you feel justified feeling uncomfortable around us. Do you think we all hate you? Are you religiously profiling us?
I am not a Muslim, and I'm not the OP. Syaing you grabbed the first unsubstantiated peice of propaganda you could find to fit your world view just confirms that you have given into propaganda. You don't seem especially interested in reasearing the issue yourself. You seem content to just listen to what you hear from others and granting extra credibility to that you information when it confirms what you already think. That type of blind ignorance is how hate and fear spread.
is it normal that people call me terrorist because I am a muslim ?
