What other religion prays for the destruction of a country like Israel, only because they are Jweish. The evidence of it's backwardness lies in every Islamic Republic there is. It basically turns every place it touches into a 7th century cesspool. Not a whole lot different then the Branch Davidians or Jim Jones, just bigger. Lord knows its much more destructive.

It really doesn't deserve Religous status.
So let me understand how you think this would actually work.

Would Congress get the power to declare that a given group of people is or is not a religion? Would there be a law that defines what religion is, and any group that wasn't listed in the law would not be considered a legal religion?

Or?......

You all (that argue this kind of stuff) scare me more than terrorists.
Good deal. That means I'm making good points

The reality is, there are problems in Islam that don't exist in any other religion today: Islam is growing and with it Radical Islam.

It's not like those on the Left have to try to cover for problems in Islam. Muslim Reformist in Islam know they have a problem.

Are you going to start disclosing your personal information on here? Your current and previous addresses? How about where you work? You're presumably smart enough to know this is a violation of TOS, so maybe you're smart enough to find a more creative way to accuse someone of lying.

We have been a country for 240 years. Do you know how many of those years have been spent without us at war with someone?

And yet millions refuse to admit we have a problem. Isn't the first step in the right direction admitting there is a problem?

Fährhausstraße, Hamburg. (Hamburg is in Germany.) Moved to Barmbeker Strasse later on. Worked in Süderstraße, convenient for the Hammerbrook stop on the Hochbahn. Do your own Googling, if you're interested. Hamburg is a lovely city, by the way - miss it.

How long ago did you live there and what was your experience living next to a mosque?

Easy enough to find the Mosque. Are those all apartments in the vicinity?

Whats with the deflection? Islam is the topic. Not Russian, Chinese or American war.

Apparently Radical Islam is not a growing problem in the world? Are there not Reformist trying to make it better?

I'll talk about problems in Christianity until the cows come home but thats not the topic and there's plenty of that in the religious forum already?

Can I assume that you believe those who want to restrict 2nd amendments rights are wrong?

And to save time, if so why do you expect them to act differently than you?
Guns (along with Christianity) are part of our entire 400 year culture. Muslim colonization is mostly 50 years, primarily current past 2 decades, liberal construct forced upon us by progressives. Muslim desires of conquest is a 1300 year enemy of the west, unleashed by progressives the past few decades.. You are wanting me to compare apples and oranges.

Why is it a concern of yours. I asked the guy a question on something that sounded far fetched and he answered. There nothing against the TOS by asking about a Mosque in a big city and a cross street where he used to live.
