Their attitudes to and treatment of women is absolutely vile, as is their belief that a single word misinterpreted by them is justification for all manner of horrifying punishments.<br />It isn't the whole religion, as you said, there are many of that faith who are reasonable, steady people. It's the rabid fanatics that I fear and they recruit far too many young men into their ranks.

What troubles me, in a more general sense, is that any college or university would stifle free speech in any way, even if it was found entirely repugnant by some. An institution of higher learning should be a place where ALL ideas are open to discussion and dissection, and not just those ideas hand-picked as safe or non-threatening or politically correct.

I'll bet if that nut Terry Jones burned a Bible the whole Christian world would not revolt and kill people, and the Catholic Church clearly has mishandled their problems, but at least they do not publicly condone and or advocate that practice. I am just saying that people need to stop walking on egg shells about Islam, there are major problems in this religion that people want to bury their heads in the sand over. There is no fear in condemning the Catholic Church over child abuse, but only excuses or silence over fanatics that blow up buildings, chop the head off of a living person and then broadcast it, and condemn cartoonists to death.<br /><br />Yes, there were the crusades, and porbably lots of other stuff, but this is now.joehhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08520161706680568508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-968059214758329257.post-60378508103905059042014-04-12T15:39:47.388-04:002014-04-12T15:39:47.388-04:00ALL religions have a scary component to them - if ...ALL religions have a scary component to them - if you have the wrong kind of people in charge. Whether it's people who want to CUT OFF YOUR HEAD, or people who burned the Salem witches at the stake, or Terry Jones who wanted to burn the Koran in a park near my house, or people who don't get outraged at all the sexual abuse by leaders of a church... Yet all religions basically promote peace and "doing good." Why can't we just do that?Pixel Peeperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17553862902461169270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-968059214758329257.post-73328305067794347242014-04-12T13:33:40.707-04:002014-04-12T13:33:40.707-04:00meanwhile grade school children are being sent to ...meanwhile grade school children are being sent to the office for daring to pray over their lunch or for writing a Bible verse on a card. <br /><br />evil will find a way, masking itself in something that gives it the chance for more power.
