Why so insecure?

One of the reasons why I chose to make United States my new home is the intellectual and religous freedom it offers to its citizens. While, it has been very encouraging to see PBS put up the documentary on Prophet Muhammad, I am concerned with the visciousness of the negative comments in this forum. Everyone is entitled to his opinion and the right to share it with others. All the people suggesting that PBS is involved with a conspiracy to "recruit for Islam" should ask themselves why would they do so? Why would billions of souls on this earth choose voluntarily to follow Islam and believe in Prophet Muhammad? These are questions to ponder for those who seek the truth.


On my part, I want to thank and congratulate PBS for having the courage and determination of showing this documentary in the face of what was sure to be a negative reaction by many. Please keep up the good work. I look forward to other such topics where our minds can be opened further about other subjects.
