Islam is a Peaceful Religion

[shazeep]

well, people don't become radicalized in a vacuum. That hardly speaks to all, or even the majority of Muslims anyway. I do agree that these are just people breaking the law and justifying it with Islam; which happens to make great mainstream news, especially when the agenda of keeping people divided by any means is understood.

Peaceful muslims again...

KARACHI (Reuters) – About 200 protesters clashed on Friday with Pakistani police outside the French consulate in the southern port city of Karachi after a demonstration against the satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo turned violent.

A Reuters photographer said some of the protesters appeared armed with guns and he saw them firing shots after security forces used water cannon and tear gas to stop the crowd advancing on the French consulate.
At least three people were wounded and taken to hospital, one in critical condition, a Karachi doctor said.

After the clashes, the protesters, mainly students from a local university, retreated to a nearby area but refused to leave, as police blocked access to the consulate.
It was the first time people’s anger over satirical cartoons published by Charlie Hebdo spilled into violence in deeply conservative Pakistan, in the wake of the Jan. 7 attack by Islamist-inspired militants on the weekly in Paris.

BTW I have been informed by Muslims on Facebook that every christian that believes Jesus is God is forever unforgiven. Yes Allah will NEVER forgive their sin.

that's another thing. Apparently they don't all agree but some have told me that by "peace" it means THEY have peace

In other words it's NOT a peaceful religion..ie at peace with everyone else. They mean IF you are a Muslim you have a sense of peeeeeeaaaaaceeeeee.

But as said they don't all seem to agree with each other

The agenda, if you haven't noticed, is a steady stream of violent and deadly acts against the infidels. It's not the fault of American journalism.

And we aren't at fault for the radicalization. The history of Islam has a long bloody trail behind it all the way back to Mohammed himself. We've got to stop this naïveté.

What "sect" of Christianity is violent to the degree of Islamic jihadism? Where are the Quakers, or Methodists, Presbyterians, Lutherans, Church of Christ, Baptists, Pentecostals, etc that have many millions who subscribe to a theology of extreme hatred and violence toward "unbelievers"?

There is no parallel in any other religion to jihadism in Islam.

oh, put the koolaid down already. Your faith has just gone mainstream, and is represented by the ptb now. You are the largest arms dealer on the planet, and it serves your masters--who also own all of the media--to pit you against others, as enemies make better consumers, and also stay distracted from who the real enemy is.

if you want to suck up the party line, and be Charlie, then go ahead. By all means, please list your personal grievances to date with every Muslim who has offended you. i seriously doubt that you've ever even met one in more than passing--if that. You are just parroting your programming, which conflates the .1% of newsworthy Muslims into your enemy. Agreeing with Fox News should be your first clue.

Pretty weak argument. "Fox News" is the reason for all this disproportionate coverage of terrorist acts around the world. Let's just go ahead and blame Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, The John Birch society, the tea party, etc.

There's a problem with Islam. Long before FOXNews Mohammed and his followers were massacring people and they've been doing it for thousands of years. It is encouraged and celebrated by the Koran. But go ahead blame it on the evil right wing. You know the right wing that's going into school and shooting hundreds of children. The right-wing that is flying planes into buildings. The right-wing that's blowing up city buses and public transportation. Yes it's talk radio and the Republican Party that are shooting people for making fun of Christianity and Jesus Christ. Those old evil Judeo-Christian values that are teaching our children to hate from the time they are elementary school students. Taught to hate Jews and the evil west.
