This article got me to thinking that these 2 groups really do have alot in common. Not only do they want to use government and even violence to force their own view of God on everybody else but they seem to have the same likes and dislikes and think that, if they don't like something, it should be banned. I agree that a private religious nutcase school can do what it wants but how long until they tell us we cannot dance too? How long until they execute people for sinning?
The fact that you didn't use the word "extremist" to describe these Muslims and Christians, and instead blanketed "these 2 groups" as nutcases, shows that people like you can't scrounge up one single objective thought on religion that's worthy of discussion. When you learn a little about either religion, come back and we'll have an objective conversation. Most Christians and/or Muslims could care less what the rest of the world does. Unfortunately, that fact is lost on most people.

WOW! Most be a blue moon, I agree with you.
While I disagree with those that want to point to a handfull of Muslims and label all Muslims as the same, the same applies to Christians, or any other religion for that matter. Each person that believes in a Creator has their own set of personal beliefs and viewpoint and each has their own individual pact with their Creator, to lump them all together under one label is neither fair or accurate. There are extremists in ALL beliefs and even amoung non-believers, duh, fortunately the vast magority of people on this planet are not extremists and will only tolerate then so far and for so long before bringing things back in balance.

Muhammad: There are three options in dealing with the infidel (anyone not a Muslim, i.e. the enemy) 1. Convert them 2. Tax them at a higher rate then Muslims and not allow them to have the good jobs 3. Kill them

yep, sounds just alike.
That's interesting because when Christians were expelling both Jews and Muslims from the Iberian peninsula and forcing conversion at the point of a sword, both Christians and Jews were free to live in the lands of Islam pretty up the present day.
Hey Ghost...I'm VERY secure standing where I'm standing. You can't say I'm not going to call you a liar and then go on to call me a liar. I was there, you were not. It WAS reported in a lot of outlets (even though the LIBERAL media reports only what is "politically correct"" that Muslims were dancing in the streets.

Never saw one such report and I was watching the news like crazy, including FOX, I have asked around and no one I know has ever heard this either. Do you have some viable sources you can produce to back up your "claim"? I said I had my doubts, but if the shoe fits go ahead and wear it. I will wait to see your proof.
