Three New Delhi Blasts Kill at Least 58

I'm not going to report on this tragic event, its not my job. I just want to know how our religion, a religion of peace and understanding, a religion of violence only at last resort, a religion of understanding and acceptance towards all, how did Islam become the tool of terrorists. I myself am a Muslim but we must take it upon ourselves to find out how the teachings in the Holy Qur'an have become so mis-interpreted to the point of mass murder. I dont regard these terrorists as freedom fighters or soldiers in a Holy War, I consider them to be what they are and what they are is evil. Theyre terrorist thugs whose intentions are the murder of innocent people, of jews and of anyone considered a threat to their movement. I call upon my fellow Muslim brothers & sisters in hopes that we might restore Islam to good-name and respect by countering the use of Islam for genocide. There are those who discriminate against us but they only hate what they fear and only fear what they dont understand. We must make it understood what true Islam is and that we arent like those Muslims who bomb and terrorize the world and have perverted the Qur'an. We must have faith and be strong for if we do than Allah shall surely deliver His justice.

because people in power have always used religon as a tool for war. they are able to get away with it because religion is also the biggest divider of peoples. people of one religion feel that their god and religion is better than that of other peoples. this breeds hatred, intollerance, disrespect, and apathy. if the people took the time to pay attention to what their leaders are really doing and to global poliltics then they would see the scam and rise against it and bring down the tyrany.

pay attention to global politics, and read news from various countries and you will get a better feel of what is really going on. as of now new alinces are being forged and serious wars are on the horizon. the reason is always for greed and power at the expense of the masses. and you can be asured that the people behind this horrible deed were not muslim. they are godless people who hide behind religion for their own ends. now this story i havent read on, but then again i don't need to because the powers that be always use the same old tired tactics time and time again. muslims are the new bad guy enemy and so of course they are gona use islam as the scapegoat for this crime. this is how they justify their little wars. religion+bad guy+terror threat=losing rights=jusitfication of genocide, and rape and pillage.

know this, any person who is god fearing reguardless of what religious path would never do such a thing to another living thing. even non believers who have good and just moral value would never do such a thing to another living thing. this is what keeps me out of dispair.

i dont think Islam will ever have a good name anytime soon. if you look in the koran, there are verses that say to kill the infidels, a sura in The Cow, and a couple others. That could be intrepreted into what the terrorists are doing, they think they are doing gods work.

Hi MC,

I can give you a christian perspective on this. There really has not been enough of an outcry against this from the Muslims in the world. The tacit acceptance and even examples of rejoicing over a victory of sorts leaves us with a bad impression. If there were more politcal rallies condemning these acts and a political campaign against it, it would help your cause. Otherwise, people will remain sceptical and not be too interested in listening. The president of Iran certainly doesn't help your cause any in the United States.

Bennettresearch does not speak for Christianity but only himself.

Fat Kat Matt seems to forget the genicide from the Old Testament - little realizing that it can be taken the same.

It is my opinion that these two sacred books are sometimes taken as justification for savage acts

A dreadful thing to happen. What does bring me great Joy though, is to hear this from both of you, Muslim Communist and Almifkar, decrying the terrorists who use the religion's name to do harm.

As Pah said, no religion can claim to be "whiter than white", and I am so happy to hear from two 'proper' Islamics, who have made me feel more hopeful for the future.

I thank you both for the intention of your messages, and I can only hope that there are more like you, who will make your voices heard.

Everyone is sick of bombs and death; it is the duty of everyone of us to do anything that we can to promote World peace; perhaps we do not have loud voices, but if we all got together, the voice would be louder.;)

no, i just didn't say anything about it. They are both incentives for murder. "god says its right, so his will be done! Ooh-ra!" I dont like how Muslims say Islam is a religion of peace when it clearly states in their book to kill the infidels.

This is dangerous. This kind of thing happens again and India will attack Pakistan and China will declare war on India and Japan will declare war on China and North Korea will declare war on Japan and America will declare war on North Korea and on and on and on...

Very dangerous.

What that means is when the infidels attack God's people we have permission from Allah to kill in self-defense. Upon further reading you'll see that the Qur'an also instructs Muslims to protect a church/synagogue when its under attack. Our rules of war state that we are to never harm a religous leader, never harm a place of worship, never cut down a tree, never harm women or children, and never destroy someone's property.

jediism doesn't have anything to do with lightsabers. Seems i have to constantly say it, i thought people would be smart enough to get it by now.

Maybe. But i'm not people. Here's some uncalled for cutting and pasteing.


Stop trying to cover up your hatemongering religion with "well, jediism doesn't have anything to do with lightsabers and think of something at least half-credible!"

By not mentioning that Christianity is also not a religion of peace, you have not been fair to the Muslim.

Again, in the same post, you did not quote from the bible where non-believers are supposed to be killed as well. So that also did not make Christianity a religion of peace. Do you agree?

christianity is not a religion of peace, at all, though i do believe it has reformed itself since the Dark Ages. In the book, it clearly says you should stone disbelievers, etc. The two books both encourage murder and hate against the infidel. It isn't blameless at all.

But I don't get that by saying Christianity says this, but the U.S. does this, makes Islam any better.

Praytell, Fat Kat Matt, what IS Jediism about, then?

I dont like how Muslims say Islam is a religion of peace when it clearly states in their book to kill the infidels.
You're forgetting the rest of the sentence there. I'll help you fill it in.

when it clearly states in their book to kill the infidels
only in self-defence.
