I'm sure there are plenty of nutty beliefs in the Qu'ran, just as there are in the Bible and other religious texts. They're all nonsense IMO.
Having said that, there are 1.6 billion Muslims worldwide. 99.9% of them never have, or ever will, commit an atrocity like the one today, promises of heaven and 70 virgins or whatever notwithstanding.
The lack of perspective and scapegoating in this thread is off the charts.
Where do you get this 99.9% statistic from?? Stop posting complete NONSENSE!
And 100% of them do not fit in with western culture and their religion will continue to produce the small percentage of solders for Allah who are willing to commit to extreme violence.
These attacks and terror activities have nothing to do with religion. It is due to poverty, low education, despair, persecution, abuse .... a lot of things including them listening to what their versions of people like Rush or Gohmert may tell you.
Posters: WHICH "Muslim" groups do you wanna kick out? The Sufis who lost their statues to the Islamists in Timbuktu are also "Muslim". Too; there's a group called the "Bahai" or something like that, I thought they're a kind of Muslim even tho they DON'T have the rep of doing stupid stuff.

That's ALL your post is. Don't worry though, for the most part, you're preaching to the choir around here.
Do you know what is 0.1% of 1.6 billion? It is more than half the population of America!
Secondly, why it is always bloody Muslims? There are a billion Hindus, half a billion Buddhists.
If the distribution of religious wackos were uniform, why doesn't someone from their community ever gets outraged and go on a killing spree?

Yeah right, Bob.
Osama bin Laden was just another uneducated pauper. Do you even think about your statements before making them?

I haven't listened to Rush since the 80's and I don't know that other person your referred to.
This is common sense. This attack obviously an attack by orthodox Muslims. They hate freedom of speech and they hate western culture. So why do they want to move in with us? The answer should be pretty clear.
Just ask any person in India about what their civilization has endured from Islamic savagery. Actually, they don't have a civilization anymore - it was all plundered and destroyed over a thousand years ago. Most of India is now a cesspool. In the few places where Hindu culture managed to survive untouched, in the deep south of the country, you can see a clear contrast between that and the north where Muslim culture has predominated. Islam has always been a brutal conquering force - this isn't new. It's new only to people in the West.
Can't you hear all the moderate muslims marching in protest right now, denouncing this terrorist act? Seriously, they're out there somewhere.
All four of them?
