The responses on this thread are a classic example of hostility towards any education. You try to give people facts and they respond "no thanks I know enough"
Absolutely correct. The attempt to educate the posters--especially the "right-wing" posters--on anything about Islam, is an exercise in futility. The OP is simply throwing pearls to pigs.
What's more, one of the ten commandments is that "thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor." Many of the Christians here at C-D seem to have no problem breaking this commandment when it relates to Islam, thereby exposing the shallowness of their belief or quite possibly that they don't really believe at all.
Catholics teach that humans are a special exception to evolution, don't they? You aren't being entirely honest. Catholics are also not fundamental Christians, being a Catholic you should know this as well. As for low %, fundamentalism is a small number, however Christians still make up the vast majority of the worlds religious.
Christianity: 2.1 billion
Islam: 1.5 billion
Secular/Nonreligious/Agnostic/Atheist: 1.1 billion
Hinduism: 900 million
Chinese traditional religion: 394 million
Of course if Islam has its way with the Secular/Nonreligious/Agnostic/Atheists, they will either have 2.6b or there will be 1.1b less people on the earth. Somewhere in the middle should be about right.
I'm not sure what point you're trying to me. Humans are only a special exception in that they're the greatest creation and that human beings were created in God's image (i.e. we have reason and souls). There is absolutely no official doctrine or domga, or even teaching for that matter on Creation so i know there would be no special exception for human beings.
Kind of interesting though that God created light on the first day, but didn't create the Sun until the fourth day. Hmm, sounds like maybe even the bible may support the Big Bang (created light on the first day).
There are good Muslims and there are bad ones. There are good Christians and there are bad ones. There are good Jews and there are bad ones.... etc. You cannot judge millions of people by the actions of a few. 20yrsinBranson
Except that when you actually have mass murder (over 3,000 at the World Trade Center) in America by a certain religious group, you really should pay attention.
If ANY religion managed to produce a well-financed group of terrorists that managed to murder over 3,000 people in America tomorrow...you'd be sure there'd be a bit of resistance if your town had an application for a worship center for that same religious group next week. How do you know it is the passive strain of that religion wanting to set up a new HQ, as opposed to the radical, activist, terrorist strain?
Just saying, war is technically state sponsored murder and if you go to another country and occupy their land expect them to not have a good opinion towards you.
Please provide proof of this,or do you simply not have a grasp of the English language?
