and I have never been brainwahed (and never agreed to the terror acts)...terrorism MUST NOT be linked to Muslims only...IRA, ETA, etrc...all these are terrorrists...Killing people like the KKK is also terrorrism...where's the religion in this?

Logic is scientific, a lot of things in EVERY religion don't make scientific logical sense.

you said what you had to say and your comment just showed what you thought (and trying to justify now). also how low, short minded and racist some can be

Faith is a great thing to some people and offeres more support and encouragement to some people than sceince.
So in my eyes its not a bad thing, although i d not beleive i admire some peoples faith as it allows them to do great things.
Mother Teresa, Dr Martin Luther King, etc all great people, whos faith made them care and fight for that they beleived in at their own personal expense.

i wouldn't say they were racisist at all i'd say they were religiousist though. How you can pull the racist card with me when i haven't mentioned ethical origin or anything like that i do not know.
i wish i believed in an afterlife though, it would make the thought of death alot yes scary.

'some are racist'...if you want to count yourself in...so be it.
and btw, i'm not afraid of death...it doesn't scare me at all.
but I'm scared of people's phobia
and I have never been brainwashed
Maybe because of racist people and their comments, the so-called terrorrists think they should do something...don't you think?

i'm with Abdus here. I'm not religious, but i still don't see how it can be so hard for people to accept other people's beliefs and religious acts

No excuss for blowing/killing people, but its not just isalm that does this the jews, christain etc have been doing it for hundreds of years if not thousands and blaming it on reglion.
Reglion is never an excuss just a misguided opinion and an attempted justification.

agree....
I would never do it...why I wouldn't? because i follow the religion as it should be...
Haven't added anything to it to justify killing people (else i would be on a train blasting it)
If you follow the religion (whichever religion) as it should be, killing people for no reason is forbidden
Now, some (the ones who don't follow the precise rules and religious law) THINK they have the reason to bomb people...why? maybe because of people who make these racists comments with something behind their mind knowing very well the reactions of some...
suicide is forbidden in Islam making suicide bombers not true believers.
And NOT ALL muslims are terrorists..why generalise?
And this thread is clearly about Muslims (fasting during this islamic month)..any comment in this thread is linked/related to Muslims...

Never meant to generalise, i mean IRA, Isralies, etc all done the same. I just hate it when people find excuss in faith, or anything for that matter.
If you do that kind of thing your fucked in the head no other way to put it.
Any I admire anyone as meantioned before who sticks to something they belivie in no matter what so long as they hurt no one else doing it.
Just some people naive views towards other people offend me, hence the soapbox.
