In your own words, describe your understanding of Islam.

What core values do you understand that followers of Islam believe in?

How are Muslims saved? Is there a path or belief to salvation? Who is their savior if one is needed in Islam?

What is the foundation of their core beliefs?

Which scriptures in the Quran are consistent with the New Testament teachings? (if any)

All this coverage in the media about Islamophobia has me a little stirred...

Why doesn't the media ever ask Muslim Americans what their beliefs are? It seems ISLAM's beliefs or doctrine is skipped over...and always labeled "peaceful"...There is never conversation about the religion's beliefs or the Quran.

Why is that?

Kill. All. Infidels.
And that interpretation is what a TRUE Muslim believes. Any person who follows Islam and doesn't support jihad either doesn't know their own faith or isn't true to its principles.

I don't respect or care enough about Islam to even invest that much mental time into answering this question.

Yep, there's an old saying about actions speaking so much louder than words and this absolutely applies to so called "peaceful" Islam.

It's a devotion to the higher power that you believe is responsible for our existence.

A fundamental difference in Islam and Christianity is that the bible says "Work good toward ALL, especially those related to you in the faith"

Islam says to work good only to those related to you in the faith.

Regarding infidels they follow the old Iron Maiden tee shirt I had "kill em all and let God sort them out."

Core values:
Kill infadels
Hate women
Love goats

Saved by:
Killing infadels
Degrading women
fricking goats

Foundation if their beliefs:
Loneliness
Not much to do
Anger from living in a hot sand box
Lots of goats

The media and left love them because of sharia law. Don't think for a second that the media and left would not love totalitarian rule that sharia law provides, along with a reason to frick something else like a goat. Islam and liberalism are very much alike in that they love oppression, destroying anything that doesn't align with their beliefs and fricking whatever they feel like depending on their mood.

Mohammed invented Islam to give the Arabic people a religion to tie their tribes together, like the Jews. He succeeded in founding a religion with even more rules than Judaism. The very word, Islam, means "supplication", or total obedience. Sheeple following the herder, with religion dominating the adherents' lives.

They should. It would be educational.
There is nothing innately wrong with Islam.
Just as there is nothing innately wrong with most religions.

Many would likely reject those facts based on preconception bias. But given the correct forum, at least having the discussion would be a great start.

As I've said here in the face of some consternation, comparative religions should be taught in secondary school for the same reason.

Where extremism kicks in, the story changes. Eric Robert Rudolph, The Branch Davidians, Horrors of Islamic Terror, etc.

Something is wrong with Islam at its most basic level. Its a vile and evil political ideology. It isn't a religion.

It is an authoritarian and pseudo-fascist ideology with the sole purpose of global conquest of the world in the name of Allah. Only the people of the book (Jews, Christians, Hindus and possibly Buddist) have an opportunity to live without converting. They just have to pay a ridiculous tax and can't have any leadership roles.

it doesn't matter what anyone thinks about islam. the following could happen in a news announcement that Pelosi said was great; and CNN would fap to it the same way they called the muslim brotherhood peaceful baws.
