For those muslims who claim the terrorists are not "real" muslims, it doesn't matter.
I think it does matter ... and we should have respect for all who wish to co exist in peace.
Those who are carrying out these violent acts are muslims following their interpretation of the religion.
Those who carry acts of violence are a very small minority of Muslims
I've seen it stated in various places that between 10 and 15 percent of muslims can be considered "radical" or sympathetic to the radicals.
And how many of the 10 to 15 per cent that you have heard by heresay ...do actually carry out acts of violence
The sympathizers won't outright kill you, but if they hear of a plot they'll keep quiet bout it or provide some sort of cover for those who will.
Assumptions, gossip and rumours plague the Human Race ...
Any "sympathiser" who aids in the plotting of murder is also answerable by law.
I could keep answering you point for point
But I see a closed mind, a mind already up

Personally I don't know any Muslims who want us all to live under Sharia Law...
I haven't asked that personally.
en.m.wikipedia.org...
This is why some Muslims in America want Sharia Law for themselves though.
I don't know any Muslims who agree with violence and certainly not suicide bombings.
Suicide is a great sin, as is murder, to combine the two is outlandishly unIslamic.
We discuss this together often and find it sickening.

I'm not seeing any difference. Seems rather convoluted actually. So, Jesus was Hebrew, prophet to "god", but which god? The Abraham god or Allah? There can't be two gods right? You're not being clear on this point. If Muslims believe in Jesus, then they must believe in his teachings. Which are from the Abraham god. Reading online, Muslims believe he's an apostate, so that must mean Jesus is the prophet to Allah, according to Islam. So if Jesus is a prophet of Allah, then why are his teachings opposite to those of Mohammad?
Something isn't adding up.
