Ever wonder...

Ever wonder... Why a nun can be covered from head to toe and she's respected for devoting herself to God, but when a Muslimah does that, she's "oppressed" ?

Why a jew can grow a beard and he's just practicing his faith, and when a Muslim does that, he's an extremist?

When a western woman stays at home to look after the house and kids she's sacrificing herself and doing good for the household, but when a Muslim woman does so, she "needs to be liberated"? Why is it that when a child dedicates himself to a subject, he has potential, and when a child dedicates himself to Islam, he is hopeless?

When a christian kills someone, religion is not mentioned, i.e. IRA) but when a Muslim is charged with a crime, it's Islam that goes to trial? But then again, why is it after all that, Islam is still the fastest growing religion in the world?

I guess we can just boil it down to that there is good and bad in everything, it just depends on our perspective. Islam is a fine religion and will continue to grow, and as such will continue to be criticized by those that don't agree with the cultural inheritance that it brings with it.  
Date: 4/17/2002 11:28:00 PM  From Authorid: 48858    Ooh...an opposer...how very intersting! I am both proud and ashamed to say I only know about the Islamic religion from what I've been fed from news and Patriotism fanatics. Interesting none the less. ~*~Lievout~*~  
Date: 4/17/2002 11:29:00 PM  From Authorid: 48858    And I agree with RA...well put ole chap. ~*~Lievout~*~

Date: 4/17/2002 11:35:00 PM  From Authorid: 28848    Blah, those are some very good points. Honestly, I think that a large majority of Americans have become prejudice to the muslim community because of the actions that have taken place since last September. I know that not all muslim people are to be blamed for those actions and most had nothing to do with it. But Americans can be very proud especially when it comes to war, religion, and the Rights of Freedom. I guess a lot of people see the muslim community as a whole and right now they see them as the enemy. It may not be right for people to think that way, but I think that it will probably be that way for a very long time because of the war. Best Wishes.  
Date: 4/17/2002 11:38:00 PM  From Authorid: 47699    The answer is simple. It's about having the choice to do as you wish and not being forced to endure the will of others. There is a huge difference between oppression and freedom.  
Date: 4/17/2002 11:49:00 PM  From Authorid: 20956    i think the difference often is that while 'westerners' and 'catholics' and whoeva you compared the islamic people to do this by choice, quite often the islamic people are 'forced' into doing this. maybe not so much forced but perhaps expected to. However i am no big expert on either religion so i dont know for sure, just what i think anyhoo ....  
Date: 4/18/2002 12:15:00 AM  From Authorid: 35629    Hmmm I think it is the all terrorist we are after and the ones that force others to practice these laws whom otherwise would not want to.Not the actual people that practice thier faith that is thier choice of course.  
Date: 4/18/2002 6:39:00 AM  From Authorid: 48993    i agree with frank! ........stereotypes are on everyone of every nation, every race ,every culture , the are unfortunate but a reality , i personally try my hardest not to use them , and i would say that 80% of the time i dont , but noone is perfect! i try my best to see people for who they really are inside!~~~~~~daniedarlin
