I agree with you there Stanford..... However, a lot of muslims condem this action but it is obvious that our voices aren't load enough!!! ‘But what most people find puzzling, myself included, is how many Muslims remain silent or ignore responsibility to rein in the radical killers among them.’-stanford Matthews.

I have to make this clear that I am not here to open up a debate floor but I merely took it a duty upon me to reply to this somewhat presumptions article nor do i ask for anyone to agree with my views. I will just briefly respond to what bernie identified as a pillar of islam; deception. To be honest the first thing I felt on seeing that comment was disgust! I don't know where that came from but nonetheless and with all due respect I shall give you an answer. No, deception is not a pillar of Islam, infact Islam has 5 pillars and they include Prayer (salat), fasting(sawm),giving alms (zakaat), going for hajj (i.e pilgrimage if you can) and last but not least belief in one God (not associating any partners with Him)and that the Prophet Muhammad is His messenger. I also see no relevance in displaying my name because there would not be any point to it as we do not and may never know each other anyway. The main thing is the point i represent. Right!

America would still be on an uncharted map because you cannot cross the ocean on a camel. There would be no Christianity, certainly no Jews, and no modern civilization. But, oh the beautiful Mosques and madrassas, they would be plentiful indeed. So spare me that Muslims have been around for thousands of years and nothing bad has happened. There are 1.5 billion of them or 25% of the world, up from 1% 1400 years ago. In Africa, before Muslims were taught by imperialists how to extract oil from worthless deserts, there were less than 10% Muslims. But now, with oil revenues to finance Islamic revolutions, Africa is majority Muslim. So please spare me that nothing bad has been happening for 1400 years. I don't care what sand fleas were doing from 722 to 1900. It's what they are doing now that counts. Today. And it ain't as peaceful a picture as you'd like us to believe. But deception is one of the Pillars of Islam, isn't it?

However, as regards organized religion, I'm not a big fan. I see too many flaws in the institutions that survive along with standard claims of innocent intentions. I doubt anyone believes that all Muslims are full of violence and hate. But what most people find puzzling, myself included, is how many Muslims remain silent or ignore responsibility to rein in the radical killers among them.

Thus, I intend to point out a few of these issues and respond to them accordingly. First I would like to point out that Islam is not a new religion that just popped out of nowhere, like the media has made it so and taken an interest in tainting the religion as a hate driven one since 9/11, but a religion that has been here, as we believe since the dawn of time. This is because we believe that all the Prophets since Adam (first man on earth) up to Muhammad (s.a.w) [i.e. including Jesus and Moses peace be upon them all) have come with the one message, the message of truth from the Almighty God. Furthermore, there is proof that Muslims have always showed tolerance and respect towards other faiths. If you study Islamic history and crusades, the Muslims lived mutually and peacefully and allowed other faiths to establish there faiths when under the Islamic states, for instance in Damascus, Jerusalem and so fort. Islam also teaches us to show mercy and tolerance to all of God's creation. This leads me to the next issue of the taxi driver who wouldn't let a dog unto his taxi. As I noted above our religion of Islam teaches us to show compassion to animals as part of God's creation (and even to our environment) and this was also a practice of the Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w). The fact that we make our needs and demands with regards to our faiths doesn't mean that we intend to impose on other faiths our beliefs or make life harder for others. But merely that we recognise that all that we do is for the sake of pleasing the one God and to Him is our ultimate return and we shall be accounted for each and everything we did on the day of reckoning and hence we must implement our religion 'amongst ourselves.' I find it hard that people lack foresight on the fact that Muslims are really peaceful people and we do not dwell much for worldly things because we believe strongly that this world is finite and the infinite one is in the hereafter. Having said all that however, it is important to bear in mind that there are good and bad people in every religion and hence amongst Muslims, but a religion should nonetheless be judged by its few misguided followers. I will like to leave you with a bit of thought; there are currently 1 billion Muslims in the world, that is 1 in 5 people around are Muslims, if we were all that corrupted, fundamentalists, full of hate, oppressors and what not that people say we are, well, look around you and think again will the world even be half as 'peaceful' as it is?
