So this discussion starts again.... ad it looks to me as it will be here to stay

Quote:
Ever hear of Andalusia?
Yes, it is a place in Spain where our Kings Ferdinand and Isabella (Who called themselves the "Catholic Kings") threw all jews off, in the name of the christian catholic god.

We have had this discussion already, there are historic episodes that show both muslim radicalism and christian radicalism, and in all they lived together in relative peace. True, christians payed more taxes, and had some disavantages, and of course some small muslim Kingdoms (Taifas Kingdoms) showed terrible episodes of intolerance. But that was not the general thing here. But of course we can dive in history to find examples of genocides and terrible things done in the name of all existing religions. Even nowadays.

My opinion about this question remains unchanged: It's people who are bad, not the religions or ideas. As long as there is a single muslim who does a peaceful and honourable interpretation of the Islam, and lives in peace with the rest, I will not change my mind. And there is nowadays not a single one, but a large amount of them who show daily how they can live in respect and peace with neighbours from other religions.

Sixpack, don't you really know a single muslim who deserves a different judgement than the one you made at the beginning of this topic? Not a single one? Think about it
