I don't want to protect anyone who hurts others. However unless ALL Muslims or Christians or Hindu's or Buddhists commit the same exact crimes, it's not a religion problem. Since millions of Muslims don't commit crimes, this isn't a Muslim problem. Just like soliciting gay sex from prostitutes isn't a Christian problem.

Funny how the conservatives only want to protect the religion that says that everyone who doesn't believe as they do will burn in hell for eternity.

That belief does not physically harm anyone. I do not care if someone thinks I eat **** for breakfast.

I saw nowhere that the Halifax men were admitted Muslims but even if they are, they are no more indicative of their religion as a whole than the above mentioned priests.
You're right about the Catholics as well, I don't want to bring a million of them in either. Whats your guess based on the names of the men, Are you going to have an honest conversation or the world of make believe?

Well that depends on whether or not the religion backs the problem, if a large % do then it is a problem with that religion. The Catholic problem was just that, the religion absolutely is partly responsible. Muslims have a higher % of this currently then other religions, remember, it's not just a religion, it's also a system of law in some Muslim countries where the victim can be stoned to death because she is now "dirty". I'd say the religion holds some responsibility.

The post is referencing anon-Islamic nation, that's an entirely different issue than what is being discussed by the OP.

However I find religion is nothing more than an excuse that bad people use to do bad things. The problem will always be people, not religion.

If this was actually about child molesters and not the fact that they were Muslims, then the OP would have just picked one of the many cases in the US that for the most part are white men, or strangely enough, white men and their wives.

He choose to specifically mention only those with arabic sounding names

What is the point of this thread? We should stop letting Muslims and Catholics into the country, or that we need a wall on the Canadian border??

no "belief" physically harms anyone, it is the actions of those who believe it. And while it is true that Muslims follow their religious text more than Christians do, it doesnt change that their are many cross overs between the 2 and many who are Christian who still practice it, especially in Africa and Asia.
