Bias of Islam..?

Submitted by Brita Conquera (United States), Apr 17, 2003 at 14:27

Islam is a universal world religion which is being practiced by hundreds of millions of people from almost every nation in the world. This religion in essence aims to bring guidence and spiritual relief to its followers promoting many good values such as love, justice, solidarity, forgiveness, honesty and much more. What's wrong in presenting this religion in a comprehensive way to American children whom we wish to raise as open minded, critical-thinkers? Bad deeds of a religion's followers can not make the religion itself bad. And this has been the case for all major religions, be it Judaism, Christianity, Islam or Hinduism.
