Islamic message of Peace on Bradford Buses

To be fair, muslims normally have conflicting views.

No different from Christians then...


You see that sort of behavior in any faith, not just Islam.

nice little rant there. I was only commenting that they are apparently not in the mainstream - i.e., like certain Christian churches are not in the mainstream of Christianity (Roman Catholicism, Anglicanism etc.)
Really I wasn't trying to generalise Muslims at all, just adding in a little more information.

alot of people do get an image of islam from the media. however alot of us on tsr are well read on islam and its quran. well read on the sharia and the less than friendly verses about unbelievers and executing entire
tribes. and alot of critics of islam are tired of being labelled by the contemptuous soundbite "islamophobic" , a phobia is an irrational fear of something, a fear of islam is rational. you are cheapening the experiences of people with real phobias, like arachnophobia.

Why are busses suddly the median for sperading your religion? Seems odd is all :P

Fair enough; sorry did I mean to write at the end that by "you" I didn't mean you personally for saying what you said but I was rushed off the PC lol.

Consider it a rant against the stereotype, but nonetheless, as an refutation it certainly holds, albeit possibly not directly refuting "you".

It all makes sense now.

Bus drivers are the messengers from god.

Ask any Muslim the punishment for apostasy is Islam and then ask them to explain how Islam is peaceful.

Have these people even read the Qur'an?

I'd rather some religious people didn't try to force themselves down people's necks, but that'll never happen and as it goes this message is nice enough. Also, I doubt anyone is going to convert because they saw this on a bus.

All religion is extremism.

I doubt its actualy aimed at converting, rather just spreading the word of islam, saying that it isn't bombs and aeroplanes, but rather peaceful.

Lol, good argument there.

I would ask you to explain your value-judgements but going by your rep and past posts... I'll pass on discussing matters with you.
