before this thread goes off topic, id like to say that islamically, there is no reason that muslims and non-muslims can live in peace. we can all live together. the only time it become a problem in islam is when a non muslim tries to force thier beliefs onto a muslim to lead them astray. just like christians, atheist, agnostics, etc. dont want to have any beliefs "forced" on them, as does islam. if your not forcing your belief on us, certaintly any muslim who follows the religion the way it is supposed to be followed will not force it on you for if they do they are not practicing the religion correctly.

Stop this deceptive nonsense! Muslims among infidels are COMMANDED by Allah to deceive the infidels during Dar al Harb (which exists as long as Israel exists). An INNOCENT in Islam is NOT the generically defined term used by the free world. The ONLY innocents in Islam are those who submit to Allah (Muslims and the Dhimmis). I tire of this lying and proselytizing of this heinous religion of world conquest!

"forcing" any type of missionizing is not allowable in Muslim countries. Teaching is not forcing but in Muslim countries anyone who attempts to teach about their religion may in fact face arrest and imprisonment or death.

No one can be "forced" to accept a religion in the modern world. I would say that Muslims are forced to remain Muslims. I would take this one step further that in countries where other religions are not allowed to openly practice their faith and Muslims don't learn about other religions other then in a slanted biased way there is not any freedom of religion.

Historically it has been Islam and Christianity who forced conversions on others they conquered.

Muslims and non Muslims will never be able to get along until Muslims accept that others have a right to practice their religion and that the whole world does not need to be muslim. Radical muslims need to be brought under control and Islam needs to get its own house in order. Islam has done little to foster understanding of peoples of the book.

So my question is: Can a Muslim return the sentiment? Can they see me as a different but equal human being or am I always a infidel and/or barbarian because I don't believe as they do?

Is it a serious question! I'll tell you, You are free to believe or not

Can Islam accept me as an equal? YES


Chango,

Muslims do not hate non-Muslims, I personally love all the people I do not hate non-Muslims equal, Islam teaches us to interact with all people and wish good for the whole mankind...


Allah says in Quran ,(Allah does not forbid you that you show kindness and deal justly with those who did not fight you in your religion and did not drive you out from your homes…)


How can you ask and you see Muslims and non Muslims live side by side in

the Islamic world and non-Muslim

You should see these many many millions of Muslims who adhere to their religion..


I know you say What about the Muslim extremists who kill the infidels? I say you, these are deceived, very deceived or totally brainwashed, and the evidence for that they are killing Muslims like them not only infidels

Note that these fanatics or extremists are always a little handful, they are Rejected by the Muslims in all Islamic societies, both Arab and western
at young, adult ,women, men, children ..etc

return to Quran :


All the Fighting's verses in the Koran is fighting to defend against the infidel aggressor So you should read these verses in their textual and historical context ....


you can return to this page http://www.islamonline.net/servlet/Satellite?pagename=IslamOnline-English-Ask_Scholar/FatwaE/FatwaE&cid=1119503544502 (broken link)

[LEFT]I can quote dozens of verses from the Bible which seem very violent, if taken out from their historical context. These Biblical texts have been used by many violent Jewish and Christian groups. Crusaders used them against Muslims and Jews. Nazis used them against Jews. Recently Serbian Christians used them against Bosnian Muslims. Zionists are using them regularly against Palestinians...


[LEFT]Take this example: in bible "Now therefore, kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman who has known man intimately. But all the girls who have not known man intimately, sparefor yourselves. (Numbers 31:17-18)


when I say all that not for I proselytized anyone here , BUT ME AS MUSLIM I SAY WHAT IS TRUE [/LEFT]


but me should be ask, Why Muslim Denied here? [/LEFT]
