I clicked on in response to the questions I'd been asked.
It is an offensive thread, why pick on Muslims, there's a whole range of minority groups one could've asked the question of. |

So, elephant in the room: how bad will these terror attacks get in 2017??, and what will pres trumps reaction be?
On that note, goodnight and sleep sound. |

I think Islam in its purist form is a radical and primitive religion. Similar to Christianity and other religions in that respect. However i believe the vast majority of Muslims do follow a more moderate version of it, which is in line with most modern western values. I think things which could still do with being updated is religious slaughter and religious dress, which still seem to be common for the vast majority of the followers of this religion.
There are many aspects of Islam and the Muslim way of life that most people aren't aware of. If you see the lists of haram jobs, it must be quite difficult to find employment, as so many areas are excluded. Women aren't supposed to work where they will be alone with a male. There are even forums dedicated to advising on which type of work is sinful & to avoid. |

I don't feel anything in particular about Muslims per se. The ones I come into contact with seem nice enough people. I don't have any close Muslim friends.

Although I used to be anti-religion, I now respect other people's religions, even though I don't subscribe to one myself.

I treat everyone as individuals.

The most salient comment I've heard is from Yasmin Alibhai Brown who said Muslims expect tolerance when they are in a minority but show no tolerance when they are in the majority. Hence resentment.

Depends whether you are talking about peaceful ones such as the Ahmadi or scum such as the Wahabbi, salafists and Deobandi.

I feel the same towards them as I would about any human.
I do view any religious belief with suspicion and I think it is a pity if anyone in any religion follows a very exclusive and fundamental version of it. The muslims I know (which isn't a large number tbh) are amiable and nice enough. |
