i am sure that if fortune was on the other foot and you sought asylum in a muslim country,
you would seek out and find fellow westerners to converse with. the safety in number factor.
i would expect that the laws would apply equally to all and if you have evidence to the contrary,
please do enlighten me. a recent case in the uk saw two muslim characters sent to prison for a long spell
for drugging and raping white girls barely into their teens. this has been highlighted on the media and i
am sure that whilst in prison they will receive the warmest of welcomes from the lifers and lags.
you state islam does not provide any benefits. many many inventions in chemistry,astronomy,physics and
architecture to name but a few. the soap many people wash with on a daily basis was discovered by a muslim.
i will say their culture and the western culture are in many respects different. i certainy would like to know
from you which aspects of 'our' culture you would be satisfied for the muslims to integrate into.
i have been and seen first hand what you claim. travelled alone to and lived in muslim countries as well as
witnessing firsthand european muslim immigrants trying to exist amongst drunken locals who shout abuse and
threaten violence.
i personally have never, ever seen the world through rose-tinted glasses.the world may not be bursting
with love and understanding but the issue is about tolerance from both sides of the divide.
if this issue is upsetting and you feel burned out by the 'debate'. i suggest you ignore all future threads and
refrain from posting.
you are entitled to your opinion as am i.
i am interested in bridging the divide and have spent a number of decades researching,travelling and interacting
with many many muslims. i will also add other cultures to that statement.
you may underestimate the knowledge attained by many members on this site but i will tell you this.
those that wish conflict will receive it in it's fullest terms.
those that wish tolerance will gain insight and respect and it is these persons i wish in my future.
i turn a blind eye to nothing.regardless of what colour,creed or religion one is, if they are out of order
i will make my opinions known and if the law is transgressed i expect the fullest consequences on the
trangressor(s)
it will never go away. i think you had better get used to that fact.
with peace,love and understanding
