I think polygamy is really cool (if you can afford it). I think their dietary laws are rediculous; but I like bacon (yeah it comes in all beef, now, or turkey but it ain't the same) I like booze, and just because I have a glass of table red with dinner isn't going to make me seduce my neighbor's 4 year old. I think I LIKE using table ware. I think I don't like being required to continue to harbor a known criminal. I think that a lot of moslems have a problem with differenciating between tradition and religion--I apologize in advance for any affront, but I feel the same way about a lot of christians/jews/buddists/hindus.

I think that like all religions there are pros and cons, and taken to their extremes in any way you end up with genocide. Like we did to them about a thousand years ago in the name of Christendom, because we wised up and sent our "gang banging" knights there so they wouldn't tear up Europe as much and allowed the Rennesance to flourish. Okay so now instead of stealing each others land, we steal each others corporations and lable them adversarial take overs. It's okay with me; the peasants/workers just starve on unemployment rolls (and then fall off because the benefits stop, making the numbers WRONG) instead of dying; personally given a choice between being abjectly impoverished or dead the latter is perferable. But when it comes to being dead, W.C. Fields was right.

And I think for them to tell me that THEIR religion is RIGHT and mine is wrong, is ignorant presumption. Just as it is for Jerry Fallwell to tell me I'm going to hell because HE said I don't worship God the way HE thinks I should.:p:Þ:p

Are you talking about personal views or you are talking about relgious views of religion?.
Also try to get Quran online and you can learn lot from there. Also look in PBS under, "Empire of Faith".
