I beginning to agree with some of the other poster here. We need to create a sub-thread on relgion and leave the discussions there. Furthermore, it seems like every event involving Muslims, seems to bring out this very nasty rash of Islamaphobia, xenophobia and bigotry. I believe this is not only counter productive to the better angels of Higher Learning but also I would like to not this site be a breeding ground of hatred and enmity.
I don't want this to become st0rmfr0nt for Muslims.
At the end of the day these people are in a transitional phase, similar to the transitional phase that occurred during Muhammeds lifetime. These people are being pressed by a militant theocracy, while being pestered by a county (US) whose interests only go as far as black gold will take them. We are focusing our anger towards the worst of a group and speaking in generalities, while being disrespectful to cultures that aren't our own.
Some people people will, dap some will pos/neg rep me but I ask that we take a look at ourselves a little more before we pass judgement on things we have no real knowledge of.
Two Cents.
