"RADICAL" ISLAM

Reader comment on item: How Terrorism Obstructs Radical Islam

Submitted by DONEVAN (United States), Aug 23, 2005 at 12:53

After having a long discussion with a visiting catholic priest, and the day to day life of Christians living under the rule of a 96% Muslim country, Pakistan, one must conclude moderate Muslims are moderate only when they are in a minority status.

Christians may not drink from any cup of the Muslim, Christian businesses, if even moderately successful, are confiscated by Muslims and accused of disrepect to Mohammed, Christian conversion to Islam is encouraged, Muslim to Christian conversion is a death offense for both the converter and converted. These are not "Radical", or Fundamentalist" or " Clerics" , but the everyday muslims in a muslim majority state. ....
Always has been, always will be.
