1. Why are Muslims so intolerant to the fellow countrymen in which ever country they are?
2. Why do they always feel that they can put across their point more impressively if they rise up in arms?
3. Why are most of the terrorists in the world Muslims?

because I think you - with your fundamental christian views, and the muslims with their fundamental views are ALL crazy.
And while you are all throwing hate at each other, and killing yourselves in your righteous "crusade/jihadi" in the middle are normal people who just want to get on with their lives, and instead end up having them trounced by people who somehow think they are better because of a book they read, or where they are born.

this "story" sounds like exactly that to me.
this dude probably went to the pub one night and after a few too many brews he woke up laying in the back alley with a sore bum and $20 in his back pocket and feeling humiliated had to make up this "story"
it stinks of sensationalism, much like the 9/11 hijackers going and sucking down a few coldies while slipping some $$ into a strippers G-string

Suckled on Revenge: Child Soldiers
Mark Earley
Note: This commentary was delivered by Prison Fellowship President, Mark Earley.
For thirteen weeks, former child soldier Ishmael Beah has seen his memoir, A Long Way Gone, hover in the top-ranks of the New York Times’ bestsellers list. For a young man whose village and family were burned, who evaded capture amidst the war-torn landscape of Sierra Leone, and finally was given an AK-47 and coerced to join the government army, a best-selling book comes as quite a twist in the road.
As a child soldier, Ishmael heard his commanding officer frequently tell him and his comrades, “Visualize the enemy, the rebels who killed your parents, your family, and those who are responsible for everything that has happened to you.” In their drills when they did not properly bayonet a banana tree, the officer reprimanded them by saying: "Is that how you stab someone who had killed your family?”
A group of 45 Muslim doctors threatened to use car bombs and rocket grenades in terrorist attacks in the United States during discussions on an extremist internet chat site.
I was a fanatic...I know their thinking, says former radical Islamist

When I was still a member of what is probably best termed the British Jihadi Network - a series of British Muslim terrorist groups linked by a single ideology - I remember how we used to laugh in celebration whenever people on TV proclaimed that the sole cause for Islamic acts of terror like 9/11, the Madrid bombings and 7/7 was Western foreign policy.
By blaming the Government for our actions, those who pushed this "Blair's bombs" line did our propaganda work for us.
More important, they also helped to draw away any critical examination from the real engine of our violence: Islamic theology.

I have already brought that very thing up as an example to prove this goes on within the catholic religion and admitted it ,yet for some odd reason those on the other side insist there are no geays within the muslim religion. Not in those exact words mind you but they insisst crimes such as this were not done by Muslims when any fool knows it is very well possible

The same usually applies to the gay Catholic, or Gay Jew, etc.
Does anyone believe that only Gay Muslims fear religious persecution?
