Why do you care?  Just leave them alone and they won't bother you.

There are plenty of wealthy people in Islam. Those that blame the West for their misery have just joined the bandwagon. It's chic to blame the West, especially the US.

Nope, I don't think so. They're just a lot stricter than most of the other religions because they value what their parents taught them handed down from generations ago. A lot of other people are fanatics too who don't belong in the muslims society.

It can be very difficult to practice a religion different than a country's state religion or predominant religion. For example, as a missionary for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Europe, we could not teach Muslims because of the repercussions they could have if they joined another religion and decided to return to their home country. I knew a man from Bangladesh that wanted to find out more about our religion. We wanted to teach him but could not because he was Muslim.

People in the United States are free to convert to Islam if they so wish. Many have.  Or not if they don't.  Thats the point of freedom of religion.

Are they Muslim? I bet that Muslims get preferred treatment. Try applying for a permit to visit Mecca. Tyhat will get you in.

Some people in the US and Europe are influenced by these people. This shouldn't happen. Islam is not always good. The people who believe in it try to exaggerate over some issues. I think they need to know that sometimes what they do and say make no sense at all.

Muslims have waged war against non-muslims for some 1400 years now, ever since islam began. While they (or their "leaders) may say they dont feel safe, it is all words. It would be better off put that muslims will not feel safe until they have converted the entire planet to islam.\nNot too suprisingly, other people dont want to convert to islam...\n\nbak2the - just to let you know, muslims DO demand that you become a muslim and during a muslim wedding, the non-muslim wife (as women are not allowed to marry non-muslim men) is AUTOMATICALLY converted to islam during the ceremony.\n\ntheluke - You really need to study world affairs before you state that islam ONLY hates the usa and england... indeed islam is attacking many non western countries, from the sudan were 200,000 christians were murdered by muslims, to thialand, to the phillipeens, to india... and other countries as well. Islam is attacking all over the planet, This behavior has nothing to do with the "west" as it has been going on since 1400 years ago.

If that will happened, many Muslims will absolutely go to the north especiallly in Manila. They will trade, as you said, to the chirstians. And many will be affected by the growth of the population, like poverty and lack of suffecient income. 'Coz if the population of muslim will grow, they'll seek for job!\n\nWhy, are you a filipino? Just want you to know that I'm!

No...what it means is:\nIf you migrate to a certain country...doesn't matter which one, really...you must be willing to abide by the laws of that country.  You cannot hold yourself separate, and insist that...within your community, YOUR laws are the ones that count, even when your laws conflict with national law.\nFor example...many Muslims have moved into Holland, which is known for its openness and tolerance.  But when they get there, they insist that they have a right to be intolerant of others, especially anyone who criticizes Islam.  They feel that...in accordance with Islamic law (which is NOT the national law of Holland) they have the right to kill anyone who is critical of their faith.

Islam grows rapidly because people in Muslim nations are forced to convert or die.

Personaly nothing, in fact I think soceity would become a better to live in fo we were to become a secular nation.\nNo more people using religion to push their ideology onto others, or trying to hinder peoples lifestyle or dictate how one should live or can not live.

obviously, your motivation was to soapbox and not ask a question with an open mind.  Muslims are in jail too, kill mothers, babies, and people on buses and plains.  Yet theirs is the religion of peace...\n\nHaving an ideal is great, and the philosophy of Christianity is a great philosophy.  The faith is even better.  Some people do not live up to that faith because, well, they are human.\n\nOf course, there are the Christians like Mother Theresa who feed and clothed the poor and sick, as well as countless and unnamed missionaries who bring charity, health, and progress to places without running water.  But let's forget about them because well, that would not be convenient for your soap-boxing.

I'm not Muslim and I agree with your sentiment 100%. There is a two-tier structure to Muslims and tolerance. \n\nIn nations in which Muslims are a minority, they act much much different than in nations in which they are the majority.In a way, this mirrors Mohammed's attitude when he was starting out in Mecca and his behavior once he ruled in Medina. In Mecca before the "flight" Mohammed was very tolerant talking about love, peace, etc. Once he went to Medina and had his foothold, then we saw the real face of Islam.\n\nThe hope of Muslims in the west is that they show the "good" side of Islam and get enough converts to reach critical mass. Once that happens, then they can bring down the hammer of Allah.

Russian "Muslims" are not the same muslims we generally think of.\n\nMuselmen have been in Russia for centuries, and their religious beliefs are as similar to other "sects" of Muslims as the Catholics are to the Russian Orthodox (or the R-O to the Ukrainian-Orthodox). \n\nThis Muslim growth is from the Russian population, now that they can practice religion, not from "immigrating muslims".\n\nMany similarities, but very non-violent.
