What is wrong with you?
First: Muslim is not a religion...Islam is the religion.
Second: where in this post did I ever say that ISLAM (because we're talking about Islam) was a peaceful religion?
Third: Yeah, I said that there are peaceful Muslims...just like there are peaceful Christians...let me brake it down for you darling.
Islam has many sect's and many denominations, therefore different Muslims under different sect's and denominations have different beliefs. Some take these verses literally, some translate them differently, etc. You get the idea.
Now, Christianity is the same; many sect's and a BUNCH of denomination's. Many a like but very different such as Catholicism, Protestantism, Eastern Orthodoxy...yeah, this could go on forever. Just under Protestantism we have Baptist, Pentecostal, Calvinism, Quakers, etc. Some believe in speaking in tongues and others don't AMONG MANY OTHER DIFFERENCES...but I really don't need to list all of that here because that would take a LONG time.
So don't sit there and preach to me that ALL Muslims are a like and ALL Muslims believe the same thing because then you're just contradicting your our own religion and many others.
So, yes...there are peaceful Muslims, there are radical Muslims, there are strict Muslims, etc just as there are peaceful Christians, radical Christians, strict Christians...
There are radical, conservative, liberal, innovative Muslims...
I mean, must I go here?
