Hate comes from ignorance.
People don't research facts but believes in media reports and propaganda.
I feel people are to much brainwashed in today's society by the media and governments and don't think with their brains anymore.

Also because it's much easier to hate than accept someone as your equal, it's an ego thing. "My religious views make me superior to you!"

That's what I don't understand in this World. Why people is so mentally lazy? If it comes for me to be just listening to some cherry-picked entries of the Bible instead of take a look at it myself I would still be calling myself Catholic. Just yesterday I was reading the story of that Danish ex-Jihadist and goes around the same. Ignorance seams to be a religion-wide issue!

I know I shouldn't bother with it, let they call themselves whatever they want. The problem is that once convinced by some cherry-picked entries people assume the whole package as "good" and get directed like sheep towards violence, attempts to control everyone's private life because "God wants" and all forms of barbaric practices thereafter.

Is it too much to ask everyone to simply take a couple of hours and READ what their religions actually say? What are they about? Asking them to trust no one, not their priest, not their imam, not me, and read by themselves? A couple of hours that may save them from a lifetime of ignorance?
Maybe it is...

Islam does not support any terrorism. Islam is a religion of peace.

And I'm Mother Teresa...
Why don't you read about it before? Is it so hard to inform yourself? So many books, web, all this entire world of information, and I keep seeing this ignorance!

Both points of view may have validity.

Probably 70-99% of Muslims do not favor the books or ideas of Sayyad Qutd.  Honestly I do not know the percentage, that's why I listed it so wide as spread.

The reason religions preach in mass numbers is because there trying to save those people in there perspective. so there trying to be nice not hateful so if you have a Jehovah's witness come to your house educate yourself before you slam the door on them like the asshole you probably are.

They're on private property, it's our first amendment right to slam the door on their faces


Yes that is true, but my point is to get some perspective on things before you deny their right of free speech.
They don't have a right of free speech at your front door.  Constitutional rights refer to rights that exist between the individual and the government.

The perspective we get on things may be kicking back, popping the top on a cool one, and munching on bacon sandwiches after slamming the doors on their faces.

Thought you know that's a quote... apparently you didn't...
I don't see Jehovah witnesses as tyrants, like Mormons, they're just annoying but not a threat or violent.
Still they miss the 3 strikes rule. Their "watch tower" already predicted the end of the World, when we all go to Colonial American houses with heterogeneous families, a chinese mother, a white father and a black boy, with a vegan lion for pet... you know the picture... some 20 times and, accordingly to all my senses the World is still here. This has to be like this, 1, 2, 3 you're out... miss predict the end of the World for the 3rd time, close the church and call it a day.

tyrant

n.noun

1.An extremely oppressive, unjust, or cruel ruler.


2.An absolute ruler who governs without restrictions, especially one who seized power illegally.


3.An oppressive, harsh, arbitrary person

(said in sarcasm) oh I know someone trying to save you from eternal Dalmatian is such a harsh, oppressive, unjust person Maybe the reason you don't like is because in your subconscious you know your wrong and you don't like other people telling you what you already know?

You got to love how the so called "oppressed" become the oppressors.

The worse kind of tyrant is the one believing to be "good" or "saving someone". They torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their conscience.

That's true, and with no evidence to back it up whatsoever! What a shame!

I personally do not hate Muslims -- I'm Catholic

All I hate are those Islamic Extremists and Jihaddists.
All that bullshit about "killing in the name of Allah" and killing and ambushing for fun.

I've watched videos of them beheading people and playing football with the said heads and UGH. It's not a good sight.


Though, I have many Muslim friends, and we get along real well. As long as we respect each other, it's all good.
In fact, I'm classmates with a Muslim, and we're partners in almost everything.
Same here.

Most racism or hate is caused by misunderstanding on both sides.

Because they don't preach as much as Muslims, and there are no Buddhist-only states

They do preach, just don't kill anybody or force to convert. That makes a huge difference!

Not in mass numbers like Muslims though

Look. Let's say that you were hiking in the mountains when you came upon a hidden valley that nobody had ever visited before. And let's say that all over the floor of the hidden valley were nuggets of gold as big as your fist. What would you do? Would you grab a nugget or two and then set up a legal mining claim as fast as you could? Or would you start digging and panning, just hoping you could get a few specks of gold in your pan, when all around you there were the nuggets?

There's so many Muslims around that it is very easy to hate Islam. I mean, why go looking for some remote, hidden tribe in the jungles of South America so that you can hate their religion? Islam is easy to hate.

Smiley

And why people doesn't hate Hindus? Or Buddhists? They are pretty much as many as Muslims...

And here we go again with the attempt to make Islam somewhat right because Christianity did this or that.
Let's put this straight: Christianity did NOTHING. Europeans did. Europeans are extremely organized and when aim at some goal go for it in industrial scale.
Islam supports slavery, Christianity doesn't. However in only 3 centuries Europeans got way more slaves than the Muslims in their 14 centuries of slavery.
Islam calls for the extermination of Jews, however Europeans just in 5 years of nazism killed more Jews than all of the Muslim attempts to terminate them combined.

You pay taxes? You're a slave!  Smiley

Everyone is a slave then.
