Bosnia had many interfaith marriages,until those who preached hatred for the other won the day.
My grandfather married a Catholic and his family turned their back on him,bigotry and ignorance are nothing new,just dressed up in new clothes.
Do you know of any one who has done this, have you seen it, or have you spoken to that person??
Just though I'd wade in here, (probably out of my depth).
I think a huge problem is not our differences - but the Western Worlds newfound political correctness.
We've spent time in Muslim countries, and out of respect - we try to fit in, (for example, my partner covered up on the beaches).
However, (I think) a huge problem arises when people from different cultures come over here and EXPECT us to accommodate their culture in our own country. They have no right to have these expectations and have to remember that the reason they're here is because it's better, (for them) than where they came from.
Are you telling me that you can marry a Muslim and NOT CONVERT to being a Muslim???
I find it difficult to understand why modern intelligent people can believe in religion this day and age.
Islam, Christian, or any other voodoo rubbish, it doesn't really matter.
They're all as bad as each other.
4,000 years ago when the ancients could not explain why the sun came up every day, then fair enough.
It was appropriate back then, as there was no other explanation.
It was the "Gods".
These days, it's a different matter.
Come on.
It's the 21st century, and we've had the benefit of science for quite some time now.
They say 9 out of 10 wars are over religion.
That's a lot of carnage attributable to something that's meant to embrace peace on earth.
The world would be a much better place, without ANY religious rubbish.
We would probably have to find something else to fight over though.
So if you get a chaotic, ill, mentally ill, drug user, with domestic problems who returns or converts to Islam , then you have got big problems in 2009.
If only they'd take up buddhism and go to the US and get rooted by a quack in saffron robes, driving a rolls Royce, then the world would be a much safer place. But no, they take up Islam and that leads to all sorts of complications.
At least if they took up buddhism, all we'd have to worry about would be sexually transmitted disease rather than being blown to bits.

During my readings, it has struck me the startling similarity between Judaism, Christianity, and Islam.
Anyone see all those muslims put away for terrorist crimes the other day? There were planning on attacking Sydney and Melbourne.
What you may have missed is that the reason the police got on to them was because other muslims were concerned about what they were discussing and plotting and grassed them up to the police.
It is a small minority of idiots that ruin it for everyone. Same with all religions - Christians bombing abortion clinics and extremist Jews who believe all Arabs should be expelled from Palestine.
One of the more hateful sites on the internet,nothing untrue, completely lop sided and using smear tactics
.
Just reread your post , nothing untrue Thanks, your confirmation is most welcome
In regards to suicide bombers if you are killed by a suicide bomber or a bomb detonated from elsewhere or dropped from a plane,or use rockets from a helicopter, doesn't make much difference does it ?
Tell that to the relatives and friends of those killed in the Twin Towers massacre. These people were deliberately targeted for no other reason than radical Islamic hatred for the American way of life.

I thought it was because of the American policy (silent or otherwise) to disrupt the Middle East region and thereby prevent anything resembling an Islamic union of sorts from coming into being?

I'm with the gorilla to some extent.
If the US (and the west) hadn't meddled in the Islamic world for geopoliticalsocial gain then we wouldn't be in this mess.
Much like the Islamic world wouldn't have been destroyed if they didn't go on a rampage through North Africa and Europe in the Middle Ages. Anyone who understands the Exodus or Muhammads victories will see the hypocracies.
No one has a leg to stand on in this argument. We are all guilty. We all want to win, and survive.
