Actually, the problem is that most normal Muslims are not declaring against "those zealots who are terrorizing others" (I will just call them those murderers from now on), leading most of the rest of us non-Muslims to believe that thay agree with the those murderers. We feel certain that "normal Muslims" don't go out and murder women, children and men like those murderers. But when Al-Jazeera sings the praise of those murderers and shows those murderers cutting the head off someone who is helping rebuild the Iraqi infrastructure it's hard to remember who the "normal Muslims" are, because we never hear from them. None of the Muslims I know are Imams and I do not have access to view al-Jazeera. I could ask my friends if there are videos on the web where some Imams do go to the general public and speak out against the extremists.

son A few months back didn't you make statements how it is morally upright to 'lie to the non believers', jeffey? In order to bring them to Allah or some other such? Am I wrong here?

son If I remember right - and I suppose I do - I read no such statement before. In my opinion, no-one should ever lie to anybody. To hold back a negative or hurting part of the truth may be appropriate from time to time, but I think even this is not good. It IS possible to tell somebody the truth without holding back any part AND without hurting them, if you are diplomatic enough. But this kind of diplomacy is the most difficult one, because it isn't the diplomacy politicians are using. It's the diplomacy of the wise. Account frozen... |

Would "brother" fit better? Naw... The word has lost its meaning because too many hypocrites have adopted it... Man made titles just irritate me anyway... Especially when people don't live up to them... ;) ![]() |

Nice dodge ![]() ![]() We really could use Chuck back, because you two fighting each other is ridiculous and pointless. I wouldn't go that far to say it's pointless - but the idea of someone joining with a real opposite position is a good one. The "enemies" are away, now the "allies" fight against each other...

The "enemies" are away, now the "allies" fight against each other... Allies? Naw, this is more like it: Ah! ye are those who love them, but they love you not,− though ye believe in the whole of the Book. When they meet you, they say, "We believe": But when they are alone, they bite off the very tips of their fingers at you in their rage. Say: "Perish in your rage; Allah knoweth well all the secrets of the heart." ~ Qur'an 3:119 ;) ![]() |
