"Note that none of my suggestions to Muslims are racist. You can be any race. It is the religion that is the problem. It is a problem for you, a problem for me, and a problem for all infidel Americans. "

Excuse me but you do realise how insulting that is? Saying that our religion is the problem? There is no problem but those people out there who are telling other to be like themselfs, those stating they are better than others and those people out there who start wars. Imagine I said that to you. That YOUR religion is the problem(which I'm not stating). How would you feel? Have you even MET a muslim? Someone who follows the religion and practices it?

You want honesty? This here is the truth-It is a sin for Muslims to lie. Please stop spreading such hate and lie's yourself. How do you know that what you say is true? What gives you the right to slander our religion and us? I respect that it's your opinion and that you have the freedom to speak as do I. But have we ever stated such hate towards your religion in such a way? It's taught in our religion that we should respect other religions b/c they have the right to practice their own beliefs. Don't we have a right to practice ours?
