What scares you so? :: Reader comments at Daniel Pipes

Submitted by Rose (Canada), Dec 26, 2005 at 23:13

I wonder what it is about Islam that scares you all so. You're all obviously scared otherwise you won't be spending the time you are on the subject and speaking about a religion and people you know absolutely nothing about.

Don't worry...no one's begging you to convert to Islam. Unto you your religion and unto me mine. There is no compulsion in religion. Maybe you quoters of the Qur'an ...you should be quoting verses like the ones above..then you won't be so scared......
