Our problem in the world is not how secular it is but how we can all live together. If Western people do not like the Arab world, don’t go there. If those is the Arab world find the morality of the west contrary to them…don’t drink the cokes and eat McDonalds burgers and of course do not come to the West.

As a Jew I truly have Muslim friends here and in Italy. We NEVER have issues at least not from a religious view point. Most Jews are NOT Zionists on this planet and frankly is a Zionist any worse than an America republican or many European parties? I don’t think so. I have lived in Europe and the old Christian Democrats are total morons. The Catholic Church killed more people in the name of their god in the last 1700 years then any other religious group! So to hate a political group in Israel that was created for the jewish state is silly today.

Everythiing is relative….look at the number of homocides just in the area of harlem in New York. The death rate exceeds that of a normal year in all of Palestine and Israel. Sure, its terrible when children are caught up in this. It was terrible when teens were killed by a 16 year old Palestinian girl with bombs on her body. Its terrible when israel dropped bombs that killed innocent people after a Palestine missle attack. Its all BAD. We can not justify any of this yet when I see people forming a squad to kill innocent people on a plane thats truly low life.

I recall when the World Trade center bombing occured that in Palestine people were dancing in the streets. In Israel they were in mourning. I am tired when people use religion to justify a specific morality and claim the higher moral ground. I DO NOT have the only religion nor is it the ONLY TRUE one. Anyone who says that are stupid, ignorant and above all…….hateful.

Its time we accept all. Athiests, Islams, Jews, Christian, Buddists and all who just wish to exist on this planet. The 21st. century should be the century of openness.

I wonder if any Muslim has actually read the Quran and ahadith. They are full of hate and violence. Allah is, according to the Quran, a brutal god that rejoices in pain and suffering, a god that wants to peel off the skin of unbelievers and pour boiling water over their heads. You must be so proud.

Muslims follow a man that raided, plundered, killed, tortured, let his men rape, enslaved men women and children and even beat Aisha. This is what Islam’s own traditions say.

Perhaps these things explain the state of the Muslim world and the sorry status of Muslims. Perhaps these things explain why the word “Muslim” is so often used with the word “terrorist”. Since the time of your dear prophet Muslims have been attacking and killing others, and then Muslims wonder why infidels associate terror with Islam. Duhhhh.

Let me quote from your holy book. Quran 9:111: “Allah says Muslims are put on earth to kill and be killed”. There, now you should understand what Islam is all about. Now, try to figure out why so many people don’t like Islam.

@ Mr. Speak Free

If religion had been an individual affair then there would have been only One Muslim ,Only One Christain—and so on.

By reading a book written by a person makes you think that the secularism what he is talking is write, then you should surely go to those mullahs who teach that Islam is under attack and we need to fight the infidels.

Hey god! When will this world get rid of these followers of Satan created to forment trouble in humanity?

I am sorry to say that your article seems completely baseless and hollow to me atleast. I cannot agree and shall never agree with your point of view !!!

Secularism talks about equal right to people and it is not distinguished on the basis of a persons caste, class, religion and background. People are to be treated as equals. That is secular society.

It does not talk about what God says and what people say. And one think that the author could not understand is religion is a personal matter of individuals. If you try to mix things together then you get problems. The Mullahs pop-up everywhere and start ruling your life by teaching what they know and understand about the religion.

I dont think they hate Islam. Yes hating Muslims is because of muslims actions, not due to religion. Why they give respect to true Muslim, who is following Islam propelry. So it is not a matter of religion, but actions of people.
