There's a lot of these promotions of Islam as the 'Religion of Peace' going on around the World these days. In the UK they run a campaign "Inspired by Muhammed":

All these campaigns could possibly have something to do with the following alarming acts perpetrated by evil infidels:

I did a number of google searches using "number of christian bombings 2009" "number of muslim bombings 2009" and "number of religious bombings 2009"

Besides one wiki link listing various Christian terrorist groups and sporadic bombings over decades, EVERY other link was only about Muslims bombing people.

Unless Google has a hidden agenda against Muslims, it seems massively disproportionate. It appears your hatred for Christians supersedes all other things. It would be fair for me to then also include Hindu bombings against Muslims in India. But that takes the topic way off topic.

This one was a Muslim bashing thread. Feel free to start a Christian bashing thread though. I'm sure it'll be a very busy thread. :p

I wonder what the odds are of being killed by a Muslim terrorist vs a Christian terrorist? Do you think they would be anywhere near equal? Just curious of your opinion on that one.

Well, have you read your article? I'm pretty sure it wasn't about raising more extremists. Quite the opposite, in fact. I was just pointing out how Christians were doing the same dumb thing. I don't see why I would be trying to justify Islam that way. I dislike them equally.

Christian terrorism is just as deplorable as Islamic terrorism.

The only major religion which I haven't heard terrorism from is Sikhism.

It has been reported that some victims of rape, during the act, would retreat into a fantasy world from which they could not WAKE UP. In this catatonic state, the victim lived in a world just like their normal one, except they weren't being raped. The only way that they realized they needed to WAKE UP was a note they found in their fantasy world. It would tell them about their condition, and tell them to WAKE UP. Even then, it would often take months until they were ready to discard their fantasy world and PLEASE WAKE UP

On Buddhism and Islam, interview with Buddhist lama (Kagyu tradition) Ole Nydahl:

THE BUDDHA MEETS HOLGER DANSKE

Almost all the harm inflicted upon Buddhism throughout history has been caused by Islam, says Ole Nydahl. He finds it embarrassing that Buddhists never defended themselves. Muslim extremists now threaten Buddhists with renewed violence.

The Sarin attack on the Tokyo subway, usually referred to in the Japanese media as the Subway Sarin Incident, was an act of domestic terrorism perpetrated by members of Aum Shinrikyo on March 20, 1995.

Aum Shinrikyo (currently known as Aleph) is a Japanese new religious movement. The group was founded by Shoko Asahara in 1984.
[...]
Aum Shinrikyo/Aleph is a composite belief system that incorporates Asahara's idiosyncratic interpretations of Yoga with facets of Buddhism and Christianity, and even the writings of Nostradamus.
In 1992 Asahara published a book, within which he declared himself "Christ," Japan's only fully enlightened master and the "Lamb of God." ... He also saw dark conspiracies everywhere promulgated by the Jews, Freemasons, the Dutch, the British Royal Family, and rival Japanese religions. ... He named the United States as The Beast from the Book of Revelation, predicting it would eventually attack Japan.

This cult has nothing to do with Buddhism, whatsoever. Sorry, but thanks for the research.

Actually, wikipedia is misinformed - it is a Buddhist splinter sect. I was taught (briefly) about it by my RS teacher in Year 11. I only used wikipedia because it gave a good overview.
Even if it is diluted with the eclectic teachings of other religions/cults, aren't a lot of extremist sects? (Besides, you've seemed to gloss over "facets of Buddhism", even if wikipedia was undeniably accurate).

Its probably interpretations of his teachings in the koran which are shared by main religions -

Jesus teachings for example

1. social justice - helping the sick, poor, downtrodden of society and emphasis on justice via legal means
2. women's right - treating women fairly and acknowledge how they support men in relationships and how men should respect women.
3. protecting the enviroment - adam and eve being "stewards" of the land and treating lifestock humanely.

Also the majority of "human rights" have been mentioned before in religious texts which are unchanged for the mainstream, original routes.

Also what is socially acceptable will change with history.

For example at one point in time young boys as sex slaves was considered a acceptable "norm" like feeding policital dissidents to animals.

What Buddhist terrorists have there been? Or does that guy who set himself on fire count as a vandal?


Under attack, Christians fear militant Buddhism
http://www.tamilnet....=79&artid=20555

Seriously just learn how to Google, instead of making sweeping statements.

Also this whole scapegoat religion is getting boring.

Their is a major difference between different opinions and actions.

For example thinking about illegal activity and performing/promoting it.

Or for example your views on animal welfare and fire bombing a researcher's home.

In my personal case I do not believe in homosexuality for example as it serves no biological purpose but I'm not going to go on anti-gay march or beat up someone who is homosexual.

However I do disagree on homosexuals conceiving children because geneticially having children is impossible (its not like can't concieve due to weak sperm for example, its because a biological component is missing)

Removing religion won't stop killing/world problems. Only removing free will and emotions like desire and anger will.

Maybe you should read my entire post before sounding like a troll or orc.

Belief, opinion, values its all the same term.

Also you haven't given any valid response.
