If a Christian is walking in the light in fellowship with God, he would not be a terrorist. We are not talking about nominal Christians such as Hitler and his bunch, which is not of the present time. Do you understand now what I was trying to ask? I never got an answer from you only attacks on my character.
If you continue to attack me, I will not respond to you next time. Get a second opinion of the questions I am asking before you fly off the handle as you have obviously done.
Your first comment:
Not all Muslims are terrorist, but it seems like most terrorist are Muslims these days. I know most Muslims do not identify with these terroist, but what are they doing to stop these few from over shadowing Islam in the eyes of the world?
I responded and asked what you were doing to prevent Christian terrorists from continuing what they are doing. I do recall telling you specifically about the Lord's Resistance Army in Uganda and suggested you look them up for yourself. As a Muslim it is not the fault of the entire ummah that some Muslims fall outside the teachings of Islam. Just as it is not the fault of every Christian that the above terrorist group falls outside the true teachings of Christianity. The fact you asked what WE are doing to stop it is totally unfair especially considering it is the media and American/British government that focus on the few rather than the other 1.2 billion Muslims that try to live according to the true teachings of Islam. The question you need to ask is WHY the world is doing nothing to stop the slaughter of the citizens of Uganda by Christian Terrorists.
It's not a matter of attacking you at all. And, quite frankly, it doesn't effect me one way or another if you don't respond to me. I didn't necessarily attack your character, but did in fact question your lack of knowledge which is obvious by your own words. To even ask the question about what makes a true Muslim shows your lack of understanding and knowledge. You see, in Islam, if someone makes the proclamation of faith, they are a Muslim. Whether they are good, bad or indifferent is between them and Allah, swt. We are not in a position to judge. Most of us know what is outside the true teachings of Islam and would avoid that and avoid those that do it, but it doesn't mean I am a better Muslim. I don't know their heart. I don't know their intention. Only Allah, swt, knows that and judgment is for Him alone.
I never look for trouble.
But, sometimes it falls in my lap and I will respond to inaccurate statements made about my faith. I don't have to look for 2nd opinions when I have the original words you wrote from the beginning of the thread. If you feel the need to back-track and rephrase something that came across differently than you intended, then you should do that. I fully understand the written word is often misunderstood, but the way it is written can't be taken any other way. And I will continue to "fly off the handle" and be very quick to respond when my faith and the sincerity my brothers and sisters is questioned.
Peace,
Hana
