    While addressing a crowd of Muslims, speaker Fahad Ullah Qureshi spoke about the elements of Islam that many around the world view as extreme, and what he said sheds a lot of light on just why there aren’t any “moderate” Muslims condemning the radical beliefs fueling the barbaric violence in the Middle East.

    IslamNet, a Norway-based organization, shows the group’s chairman answering a question about the manner in which the Western media portrays the world’s most brutal religion.

    Qureshi focuses on how the media singles out individual speakers as radicals, but explains that the speakers can’t possibly have extremist views since every other Muslim thinks the same way. The “common” Muslim, as he calls them, shares the same beliefs as the extremists rampaging across the Middle East indiscriminately and killing people in the name of Allah.

    The attendees agreed as well. They don’t believe themselves to be extremists or as having radical views, just that they are common, everyday Muslims guided by their religion. They agreed that segregation is the right thing to do, and that stoning and other barbaric punishments in the name of Allah are righteous and normal.

    Who cares whether they are liberal, moderate or conservative? They are on the way to hell. Let's deal with THAT.

    Then why are you here arguing politics? Why aren't you out there actively evangelizing them right now?

    For those who do not know any better the use of the term "moderate" in this case is not a political phrase it is a term that is used in reference to the level of their religious views.

    Conservative, liberal, or moderate can and is used for both politics and theology.


    I know most people already know that but there are a few (apparently) who need to be caught up.

    I'm sorry . Did I specify in my post liberal, moderate, conservative what? I'm well aware that the terms are also used to describe degrees of religious adherence.

    I didn't specify because it doesn't matter. They are still on the way to hell. As Christians, let's deal with that.

    You don't argue politics on this forum? Sorry, I must have been thinking about a different Zaac.

    Some people have been listening to Rush, Hannity, Brietbart, etc. for so long they simply see and hear what they want to see and hear, not what is said.

    Amen, brother.

    It's okay. I understand that people can get confused sometimes when they are trying to create a "gotcha" moment. No harm , no foul. :smilewinkgrin:

    He wasn't talking politics here so take that up with him in the appropriate forum. While you are at it, how about you stop trolling the board with the same comment and maybe try to articulate whatever point you think are you making with a meaningful post.

    10 can cover more ground than 1. :thumbsup:

    Until I hear these Muslims protesting their being lumped together with their overtly terrorist brethren speak out against the violence and attest they have no interest at all in posing Sharia law on infidel nations .....

    And most of these people living in the middle east without the platform to do so are supposed to do that how? From the wifi in their mudhut? I've walked amongst these people and they hate the terrorist that get to speak for them more than you can possibly imagine.

    Well considering that THEY shot the people coming to their town to recruit for AQI I'm going to give them the benefit of the doubt.

    There arent any moderate Catholics.

    Everyone who is born into a Catholic family is a Crusader.
    They hate Israel, since it has been replaced by The Church, and spend their military career purging the Holy Lands of Israelis and Arabs, so that the Coming Kingdom can be set up.
    They put their neighbors through Inquisition, of course, and execute those found in heresy.

    There are no moderate Catholics.
    They are all part of the IRA.
    They are all Jesuit infiltrators.

    They won't rest until English literature is outlawed.

    Hmmmmmmm.
