Why is there people hating on Islam?

Perhaps because the evidence suggests otherwise.

Believers, if you yield to the infidels they will drag you back to unbelief and you will return headlong to perdition. . . .We will put terror into the hearts of the unbelievers. . . . The Fire shall be their home" (3:149-51).

about the grammar, maybe you should try my language ?

What did you do with the missing parts?

I know this verse. I've read it before. This refers to a specific battle between the Muslims and their aggressors, that was to take place soon after the verse was revealed. Yes, putting terror into the hearts of the opposing army doesn't sound too crazy to me.

The evidence? The evidence? So do you think you have a better command of the Qur'an and Hadith than I do, as a Muslim who reads them both diligently?

What do you know about Islam? What does the general population know about the religion?

Does it matter ? I was asked for the quotes, there they are.
Anyway, believe what you want about this 'religion of peace" .

Well, I'm an insider, so to speak. I've never felt the wish to be violent towards a non-Muslim. I've never felt that urge whilst reading a religious text, and no, I don't ignore passages whilst reading them. Stop being ignorant.

I know that it treats men and women unequally; I know that it conflicts with science on issues such as homosexuality, evolution etc; I know that it uses the death penalty most generously which conflicts with the value I place on human life; etc.

Being ignorant?

I`ve stated in my first post in this thread that Islam and Muslims are two spererate things, and that most muslims don`t act according to those verses.

Men and women aren't unequal in Islam, they are different. There is a big difference. They have different roles, but aren't unequal.



Read up on the Qur'an and science.

jeeeez, what is up with all this threads on islam?
as a muslim myself i'm just like whyyyyyy? evertime i refresh, yep theres another one
c'mon now. get over it.

So it`s the woman`s own choice in countries like afghanistan not to show any skin ?

lol i totally agree

The same could be said for any religion...

ive always found it funny and ironic that for a forum thats aimed at students who are apparently meant to be 'smart' or whatever.. a lot of them easily take what the tabloids say for truth without any realt thought or understanding.
