I posted a really interesting thread about this on the old boards several years ago. I'll see if I can dig up the link, it was an article by Time Magazine. At the time it was news to me, I had no idea.
I do know this, you and I have spoken about this in PM I think. ... But I would like to read the article if you can find it. I just mistyped when I posted before.

I was just searching for it and couldn't find the exact article I had linked before. Mind you it's been years so it may take some digging. I really found it interesting at the time (and still do), but I'll see what I can find.

Most Muslims don't either.
Either way, you have the same god (the god of Abraham).

Most is a pretty general term. When these "most" step forward and push for reformation then I will take them serious. Until then they are standing on the sidelines with the occaisional Twitter campaign with some ridiculous hashtag.

How are we defining terrorists?
Are we defining them by having anti western civilization Beliefs? Like oppressing women.... Or are you just talking about the ones who are killing people?
Personally I believe using a religious belief to oppress women and make them second class citizens is terrorism.

Do you count American Christians who like oppressing women? Or anyone who likes oppressing women?

Most is a pretty general term when you're calling them savage, uncivilized animals.
Face it, you didn't know they followed the same God as you and now you look dumb.

What about people who use religious beliefs to oppress gays and make them second class citizens?
