Stupid thinking as displayed in the thread above is what causes terrorism and extremism. I'm seriously fed up with the Ummah's whining and sense of self-pity. The problems of the Muslims will never be solved if people refuse to admit they exist and blame everything on ridiculous conspiracy theories. We should clean up our own house before we complain about others!

This Ummah will go down the drain if it doesn't WAKE UP!

why dont you do something about it then? people like you are the exact problem, just complain but dont do anything. go on then if you care so much go fix the problems, now offcourse i dont expect you to fix the problems as they are too big, but at least if you tried that counts.

its so easy to come make a comment on a forum, and have a few talks with close friends and maybe sometimes argue, but if you or anybody really cares about the issues then get up and start doing something real about it. like you, after you leave this forum you most likely will go do something that has absaloutly nothing to do with fixing the Islamic ummah.

at least i can say i put my money where my mouth is, so yes, theres a problem in the ummah, will you be our hero and help us?

We can all be heroes by rectifying ourselves.

ok i take it that everything i said was true, . hopefully one day you will feel the problems are so bad it will push you to commit yourself to do something about the situation.

If I could do something more active, I would. But for now all I can do is try to rectify myself and persuade others to do so too.

I don't know what you would have me do though. There are already plenty of important people who try to stop this problem, but people just reject them as they think they are part of the 'conspiracy'.

Ok you dont believe me. Fine. I didn't expect to. But I am collecting all the evidence I can and will then present it.

This is how MLK helped the Civil Rights movements. He embraced the philosophy of nonviolent and made their oppressors look inward to see their own demons. The oppressors give up when they realize they can not break your spirit.

True. MLK understood that the use of violence in the civil rights movement would only give those who were inclined to deny civil rights the "justification" for doing so.
