You actually want me to list the "anything good" that has been accomplished by a current pool of 1.5 billion people.

Sure thing, pal. Hey, could you also give me a few super powers and perhaps a few lifetimes to type up everything "Good" that ..oh give me a break. I can't even continue this, it's too stupid.
Name one then .
A thing , invention,

I'm sure I'll think of something

Until then I suggest we look at Australia's
take on the Muslim folk



Prime Minister Kevin Rudd - Australia


Muslims who want to live under Islamic Sharia law were told on Wednesday to get out of Australia , as the government targeted radicals in a bid to head off potential terror attacks..

Separately, he angered some Australian Muslims on Wednesday by saying he supported spy agencies monitoring the nation's mosques..

Quote:




"IMMIGRANTS, NOT AUSTRALIANS, MUST ADAPT. Take It Or Leave It. I am tired of this nation worrying about whether we are offending some individual or their culture. Since the terrorist attacks on Bali , we have experienced a surge in patriotism by the majority of Australians."

"This culture has been developed over two centuries of struggles, trials and victories by millions of men and women who have sought freedom. We speak mainly ENGLISH, not Spanish, Lebanese, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, or any other language. Therefore, if you wish to become part of our society, Learn the Language!"

"Most Australians believe in God. This is not some Christian, right wing, political push, but a fact, because Christian men and women, on Christian principles, founded this nation, and this is clearly documented. It is certainly appropriate to display it on the walls of our schools If God offends you, then I suggest you consider another part of the world as your new home, because God is part of our culture."

"We will accept your beliefs, and will not question why. All we ask is that you accept ours, and live in harmony and peaceful enjoyment with us."

"This is OUR COUNTRY, OUR LAND, and OUR LIFESTYLE, and we will allow you every opportunity to enjoy all this. But once you are done complaining, whining, and griping about Our Flag, Our Pledge, Our Christian beliefs, or Our Way of Life, I highly encourage you take advantage of one other great Australian freedom, THE RIGHT TO LEAVE.."

"If you aren't happy here then LEAVE. We didn't force you to come here. You asked to be here. So accept the country YOU accepted."

This is obviously a thread for K-12 students too bored to do their homework.

Default muslems.

Im totally cool with whoever wants to do what. I never knock any religion. Dont care what a person looks like. Sexual preference. Just because I dont know much about something or understand why people do things. One thing I do know. When it comes to the twin towers, their were all different types of people their. So many died. Your bad no count muslems did it. As far as I m concerned, they lost their right to build. If they try it, their will be people to stop it. Just my opinion. Sure some people reading this dont like it. Thats the way it is. You can do anything you want. Youre not getting that property. Protest will go up. They will have trouble getting Contractors to build it. Not just any Contractor can be their. It has to be union. Thats a plus. Their are low lifes everywhere. I m not just pointing my finger at muslems. I hope you understand. In the Twin Tower case I guess I am pointing my finger.

I'm sure there are plenty of decent people of Islam - however, they are not running things - the radicals are. Therefore we must deal with the radicals since those of the Islamic faith, who are assumed as decent, choose not to.

We bash verbally - they kill physically.

I assume a similar thread will commence suggesting Islam stop killing people.

Really? None of you can use Google?

You may also ask a group of indigenous people of the Amazon rainforest what good Christians have done for them. Like you, they will scratch their heads...
