I'm curious what your general opinion of Muslims is. When people say they think Obama is a secret Muslim, what does that mean to you exactly?

I don't have a problem with Muslims as whole. This is America you can worship the fireplug for all I care. The concern or question I do have is why are not the majority of Muslims standing up or fighting the Radical Fundamentilst that are trying to destroy the rest us???? I can't understand this, It was the same way for me with Sean Finn I just don't understand why people kill in the name of religion.....
P.S. I'm a conservative BAC

Your poll is unreasonable. There is no middle-of-the road. It's sort of...extremist.

Sure, they're different from one another and most are NOT terrorists. But at the same time they refuse to denounce acts of terror, which forces me to distrust them in general...

Isn't "Muslims are all different like any other group of people" about as middle of the road as you can get?

You have two questions embedded in one. Should be two different threads.

nope. see my revision--I knew that'd be unclear. Muslims aren't just like any other group of people in my opinion.

The poll offers only two choices: the fuzzy-wuzzy feel-good politically correct view, and the right-wing-radical-redneck view.

Most muslims i know are hard working decent people. With any religion (even mine of Christianity) you have your wackos.

Maybe most Muslims are just as frightened of their terrorists as we are?
