Reader comment on item: Hating Valentine's Day
in response to reader comment: Valentine's Day Unneeded by Moslem

Submitted by Terry (European Union), Feb 24, 2007 at 18:23

Your post is the normal one for Muslims. I note you say all Muslims love all other Muslims. Just the kind of response we are used to. It may have slipped your mind for the moment but you and your kind have not yet reached the stage where everyone is a Muslim.

Just a point here, if you glance through the posts, you will find that many Muslims seem to believe that there is no such thing as a real Islamic state. It follows therefore that there can be no real Muslims living in that state. So therefore you do not love anyone, is that right? I realise I am speaking to a closed mind, and that nothing I ,or indeed anyone else says can get through the fog of indoctrination.

Let it suffice to say that if you and yours don't like Valentine's day, don't observe it. No one makes you. Unlike Islam, we are not trying to force our point of view/religion on everyone else.
