Islamaphobia.....

It seems a veritable dearth of websites are popping up "exposing" the Islamic religion as a heinous blot on human society spreading like the black death did in the medieval times.....

Now I'm no fan of any religion... its been responsible for so much carnage over the years, such as the crusades of the medieval period, the Inca nation where human sacrifice was common place. Then of course you get the flip side of the coin where in this case Christian believers are put to death as they were in the Roman times. There have probably been more deaths linked to religion since man first stumbled out of his cave holding his bone knife chewing on a piece of animal hide than all of the wars put together.....

But these days it seems Islam is the punching bag of choice..... it's true the Muslim faith does seem to have an over subscription of barking nut jobs who will hack your head off in the name of Allah or detonate a few kilos of Semtex in a crowded place.along with themselves.... and why that is I don't know, you certainly don't seem to see on the news as frequently as many nutters who profess the Christian faith or say the Buddhist faith. The only ones that spring to mind were David Koresh and that Buddhist priest who set fire to himself.

I'm sure there have been others but when it comes to frequency nothing seems to match Islam... and I am genuinely intrigued as to why the religion seems to breed so many deranged zealots who are willing to commit atrocities in the name of their God, which incidentally is the same God as the Christian God, they even recognise Jesus as one of their prophets... so what is different about Islam vs Christianity that creates so many monsters in their name....??? mind you Catholics seem to harbour quiet a few paedophiles these days.....See what I mean ? Religion who needs it ????

Some do obviously and the world in some cases is a better place for it... but wanting to put people to death because they believe in something else is just lunacy... the world is big enough for all religions, and even for people like me who don't believe in any form of God or higher being ...

I cannot for the life of me see how anybody can believe in a God when there is overwhelming evidence that we evolved and were not created, but each to their own I guess, if it gives them some comfort that life is just a rehearsal for bigger and better things then so be it, as far as I'm concerned once the lights go out on this life they stay out..... and your genes live on.....some people find that thought depressing... which is probably why they need that reward/comfort in place after they die, and man is the only animal on this planet who thinks that... probably because we are the only ones to have developed higher brain function above all other animals to contemplate the meaning of life and everything .....(which as everybody knows is 42 not God)

I'm pretty certain the Muslim faith is a peaceful one having read a fair bit about it recently but the burning question in my mind is why does it produce so many who seem to think that killing other people is the answer ?
