Term `islamism` in polish wikipedia (with translation to english)

[Suomipoika]

In which case, I would strongly urge the non-muslims (who feel cautious about muslims and Islam in general) to speak with muslims. Just normal day to day chinwagging (doesn't have to be something political or philosophical etc) because contrary to popular belief, all we want is to live peacefully. And eat some chicken.

Ironically I tried that, by arriving to this forum to discuss with and mostly find out what muslims think. I feel more worried about muslims than ever before when I was solely under the mercy of the press image of muslims.

Ok, good that you don't. My culture? I am lost. You know I'm not Muslim right?

I believe their is, I read a book on Fundamentals of Islam, and I am pretty sure it called Islamism the use of Islam for political means, let me try to find the book and what it said. I'll edit this once I find it.

Sorry, I missed that you aren't muslim.

I said chin-wagging - not political and religious talk . Most of the conversations that occur on LI are either political and/or religious. General chin-wagging like asking how your day was etc is what I meant. Now that is rare on the internet, but common in real life. Thus, my point is to go out and actually meet them in person and chin-wag; you'd be suprise at how normal we are

Also, I think you are the only one who has had that 'bad' experience. In fact, from my recollection, we’ve actually had several reverts to Islam as a direct result of their experience of this forum, so I guess it’s different for everyone.

Islamism is in present-day Islam, predominant political and intelectual movement.".

Islam is a complete way of life that enompasses every angle; there are rules and regulations for political, social, economical, legal, health care, business etc. Islam pretty much covers every aspect. Some people love it, some people hate it.

Edit; it's good that you are asking questions.

I'm not sure how to categorise muslims. There are many nice and good people here yet at the same time I'm afraid/worried of the political aspect and political opinions of muslims that are so heavily present in here. Would talking about weather or how his day was make you feel better about potential BNP member or voter no matter how polite or nice he was?

Not really. A lot of non-muslim posters who have been here long time, sometimes even years, have eventually been banned, ever wonder why after so long time they take that route? How good was their experience?

If I was that averse to BNP members I wouldn't frequent a BNP message board.

If I was not willing to let go of my prejudices (regardless of how well-founded they might be) and at least listen to said BNP members, whom I am seeking out, the exercise would be rather fruitless.

If I went away with my prejudices reinforced as a result, that would be unfortunate. It would not be for lack of attempting to open my mind.

I can name two members who became Muslim as a result of this forum.

I can name the individual you're talking about who was banned. That's two members who became Muslim, and one who was banned. Two out of three ain't bad.

As for why he was banned, I can think of many reasons other than the ones you're implying (i.e. in that particular members' case, it was more a question of how much of his behaviour we would tolerate for how long).

And the real elephant in the room is that you are still here yourself.

Now maybe we can return to the topic. If you'd like an argument, do PM me.

I don't mean to be rude, but its' not the western folks fault. When we hear all time of Muslims being involved in terrorist activities, we can't help but become a little cautious of Muslims.

And this is a fair, valid point to make.

An equally fair, valid point is, when voluntarily approaching such a group for clarification, to keep an open mind.

It takes two to tango. And to communicate.

personally I DIDNT UNDERSTAND THAT. im muslim but if u wanna know bout islam...ask a muslim dnt bother goin to some wikipedia which is just theories and "facts" from a NON muslim, a muslim person would know islam betta den a non muslim, mostly because non muslims like to take things out of context and twist the truth meaning of islam therefore naturally ppl try not to learn bout it. but i suggest u be more openminded...there r two sides to every story, ur choice whether u read both.

Westerners have much more blood on their hands than "islamists". So I think we should be cautious of you no?

Yeah, Westerners were created to keep the population down. Planning to nuke China and India no doubt.:skeleton:
