The actions of terrorist scum should not be used to judge a whole faith.

The powers of deduction continue to amaze me..............there must also be a compulsory course titled "Stating the Obvious".

[ezzra]

Those barbarian mongrels trying to out do ISIS, and not long now, we will see beheading as well here...

and yet, past and present Thai government are eerily silence, nothing seriously is being done, except

some lip service and pacifying comments....

Sadly, judging the whole faith is rapidly becoming the case. The extremists are damaging it for the peaceful majority ...... but the peaceful majority are remaining silent and allowing this to happen. If this continues, and much of the solution is within the majority's control, it will be at their peril in the long-term.

No,

Wait,

It's just islamaphobic BS.

There have been many Islamic leaders and scholars who have spoken out against terrorism.

Lets not forget that many of the victims of terrorist scum are themselves Muslims, albeit of a different version of Islam.

Those carrying out these atrocities are scum but they do not represent Islam, only their twisted perversion of it.

Look what was reported, " the victim was suffered a broken skull and face crushed with a hard object. " The body was found in a khlong.

No suggestion of a traffic accident so with everything screaming murder the BIB work out he was killed

True, but unfortunately there are Muslim terrorist scum in so many countries around the world. And then you add in the complete crazies such as the jihadists and ISIL, all of who say they are following the Koran and it is pretty easy to form a negative opinion of Islam. eg how can one religion lead to so many terror groups unless there is something fundamentally wrong with it. There are a lot of Christian crazies but they don't want to go out and kill other Christians because they don't interpret the bible the same way they do.

That's not quite true BSpunk.

Islam is primarily divided into 3 groups, and it is the ummah who are the distinctly respected ones - the ones who are a part within the nations and who fight with violence to defend the completed nation (qawm). You should read up on linkage within the community, and maybe some about Arab Spring and studies by O Voll. Ummah has changed in meaning but still carries great respect. It does not mean nowadays what it meant in the Quran - same a being gay no longer means happy.

There are Christian crazies out there killing people, for me doesn't matter what the faith is of those they are killing.

That aside, yes it easy for some to form a negative opinion of Islam because of terrorist scum.

However that opinion is wrong

What poostick said is BS. What you are talking about has nothing to do with what I was responding to. To be honest I have no idea what your point is.

Can you give some examples of these Christian crazies, e.g. which countries are they operating in? The mainstream media doesn't seem to know much about them.

Lets see

Central African Republic.

The LRA are still butchering people in Uganda.

The atrocities carried out in Europe by Serbs and Croats in the 90s was as bad as anything happening now.

There have been other groups and conflicts in the recent past that Christians were responsible for yet the whole of Christianity was not blamed for their actions.

Now why was that do you think?

Then let those at the top of the religion of peace, that's the religion that condones/encourages the killing of infidels, condemn the actions of these terrorists, but I won't hold my breath!

The only Christian crazies going around killing people for their religion I can think of at the moment are that mob in China who recently beat a woman to death in a Macdonalds, no I'm not referring to the mob that slashed all those people to death on the railway station, they were Muslim. Not too many Christian crazies these days I'm afraid, Jonesville, Waco? they were crazy but not out to conquer the rest of the World by violence, force, and intimidation.

On the other hand there do seem to be an awful lot of Muslim crazies at work these days, not just a few IMO. Not only here in Thailand, but they are killing themselves with monotonous regularity all over the Middle East. Let them get on with it I say. Throw in the Phillipines, Pakistan, India, the list goes on and on. See the security alert levels have been raised in UK and Aust. once again thanks to these peace loving folk.

Muslim leaders and Islamic scholars have condemned terrorist actions. Edited September 13, 2014 by Bluespunk

[chrisrazz]

There are an estimated 1.6 billion Muslims in the world. If 15% are radical it would mean up to 240,000,000 radical Muslims. A small minority.

In Germany, the Nazis were a minority yet they managed embroil the world in a war that was responsible for 60,000,000 deaths.

The argument that most Muslims are decent people, though true (the same could be said of 1930's Germans), provides little encouragement as it is not the majority that are driving the agenda.

CAR

LEA in Uganda

Europe has witnessed some of the worst genocides based on religion, most recently in the 90s.

It doesn't matter how many are killed, anyone killing in the name of religion is scum and all faiths have them. None of them represent that faith only their perversions of it.

Maybe not, but it is about time that the moderate believers forcefully spoke out and took some action against the extremists!

If, if, if.

Where do you get 15% from?

Your comparison of Islam to fascism is nonsense.

Also can you tell one war where the majority of the populace started it? All wars are started by a small political/ruling elite.

Really?

If the rest of the 'faith' were loudly condemning the actions of the terrorist extremists, I would agree with you. Yet, their silence is deafening. So, in fact, they are supporting the terrorists by their silence.
