Bush wanted to bomb Al-Jazeera?
J @ M @ L:
Because the Saudi Arabian government is fucked up.

I know i should blame Saudi Arabian Government, but it's so easy for ignorant people to blame muslims in general. It's so dangerous. Just show a service about this teacher's condamn to our TV News, here, and common people will react like: "Damn muslims! They're animals! Why do we let them do whatever they want here? Let's close mosquees!! Fuck them all!". 100% guaranteed. You real muslims should do something to avaid that. And the first step is to take distances from Government like the Saudi Arabian one.

Antonio, I feel where your coming from, keep it real. I don't really know a whole lot about all the things your talking about. I don't want to say anything I'll regret, so let me leave it at that for now. Peace.

Rather than me speaking on something I don't know alot about, let me just post an English translation of what Allah has said in the Noble Qu'ran regarding religious tolerance, then comment on it. I'd like to here your reply to these verses.
2:256 Let there be no compulsion in religion: [/i]
^^^This is proof from the Qu'ran that nobody should be forced into believing something against there will.
10:19 Mankind was but one nation, but differed (later). Had it not been for a word that went forth before from thy Lord, their differences would have been settled between them. [/i]
^^This basically explains that Allah desired for there to be differences amongst his creation.
73:19 Verily this is an Admonition: therefore, whoso will, let him take a (straight) path to his Lord![/i]
^^This is basically saying you can believe if you want.
74:37 To any of you that chooses to press forward, or to follow behind;- [/i]
^^Allah ofcourse puts submission to his will, in the forefront, you can only expect that, but he also gives an outlet for those who don't want to press forward. Because in Islam there is freedom of choice.
10: 99 "Had your Lord willed, all the people on earth would have believed.[/i]
^^Once again, Allah did not intend on everybody believing, Allah made us a people with differences.
49:13 O mankind! We created you from a single (pair) of a male and a female, and made you into nations and tribes, that ye may know each other (not that ye may despise (each other). Verily the most honoured of you in the sight of Allah is (he who is) the most righteous of you. and Allah has full knowledge and is well acquainted (with all things).
[/i]
^^^Once again Allah is advocating a pluralistic society.
2:2 This is the Book; in it is guidance sure, without doubt, to those who fear Allah. 2:3 Who believe in the Unseen...[/i]
^^^This is how the Qu'ran opens up, telling the reader that it's a book for people who believe in the Unseen. Meaning it's not for people who worship what they see or hear in this world but for people who worship the Unseen Creator, Most High, who Created everything we see and hear in this earth.

I'm extremely happy to read it. I knew it. That's why i don't think we should make a Christians vs Muslims war. But I was thinking.. i'm a Roman Catholic Christian, the religion of the Pope of Rome. We have separated ourselves from the other branches of Christianity who was born after the original one (i mean we've never accepted them). There's a strong separation between "us" and the other people who still consider themselves Christians. Why don't you do something similiar with other people who claim to represent the same religion you do? Why did you call them people in Saudi Arabia "muslims"? Matter of fact they're representing a religion different from your. You should separate yourself from them fakers.
