Allah forgive me, but that last statement is bull****. A good Muslim follows the Most High. That's the same premise in any religion. Ever heard of a thing called "idolatry"?

The Quran says Muhammad is the perfect human being and an example for Muslims to follow for all times.

I am one liberal extremist and Democrat who does not support Muslim restrictions on women, and don't agree that Muslim countries throw gay people off cliffs or dangle them from cranes.

I am a Democrat that is critical of Islam for ducking its collective responsibility to reign in its violent elements. Their criticism of violence with a Muslim connection is typically but not always quite weak.

Like you, I enjoy the games and don't care about attire.
They look as foolish as nuns wearing Habits, while playing volleyball.

The German team like two prostitutes flaunting their assets.

Different culture, different view. Neither is better.

Respect their culture and respect yours!

Once again, I am not Muslim. Most people here aren't Muslim or subscribe to the notion of Islam. Go talk to a Muslim as it would be more productive.

Can't respect an inferior culture that produces nothing but Islamic Republics lost in the 7th century. Have fun living in Saudi in thier equivalent culture. Some times you have to call a fool a fool.

Once again, that's your opinion. Billions of people would disagree with you.

Personally, I don't care about their culture as long as they don't try to impose it on me.

Yeah men in western societies would never dictate how a woman should dress, act, reproduce, live...

Well, for people wearing nothing in some African tribes, bikini is still too conservative and unnecessary.
