Three out of every five people in America are Muslim? That would mean that 60% of Americans are Muslim. This would contradict studies showing that America is somewhere around 79% Christian. I have traveled all over this country and been to many of the major cities and talked to people. I can count the number of Muslims I have met on one hand. As for Europe its largest religion is again Christianity with most being Catholic. Islam is second in both cases and not even a close second. It is the fastest growing religion but it is still far from the largest. Im not attacking you Im just stating the facts.

Now about the comment that American Muslims would fight along side their country men if America was attacked. We were attacked. Where are these American Muslims? Why are they not standing up? Why do they sit back silently? If not to stand up for their country then for their own religion. If it is a religion of peace why do they let others besmirch it with acts of violence?
