well the problem is not the religion, but problem is our thinking, whether it is hindu god, muslim`s god, or christans, noone teaches what we all are doing today, first we should learn to respect each other religion, terrorist doesn't belong to any religion but if he belongs to our religion we should not protect him or her.
we have to stand by truth, that is the only way to move towards peace

Completely wrong! There is a fundamental problem in Islam. Islam clearly says that %u201CThere no other go except Allah%u201D. All other gods are dummy or false. So a true Muslim cannot respect any Kafir (non believer in Allah and Koran). Islam also says that worshipping Idol is a sin. As per Islam, all Hindus are sinners. So how does anybody expect Muslims to respect Hindus? That is the reason why Muslim invaders destroyed Hindu temples. And Muslims insists that their book had come from god and no scope to update with time. As long as this thinking persists, there is no peace between Muslims and non-Muslims.

You got the concept wrong, my brother. Islam is a religion of peace and high moral valures. It teaches one to hate sins not a person indeed. All the messengers on the eath baught the same message. One should not hate a human being but the evil/sin in him. if anyone wants to stay back with sin and harms a good human being then a good man has to protect himself. A good religiuos man always loves the humanity because it is devine creature of God. A person who kills someone on the name of God is a real fool and no religion teach this. Indirectly he dont follow any religion.

Absolutely correct. no religion asks to kill anyone. criminals are criminals, they don't have religions. if they follow any religion, they won't do any criminal activity.

Good to hear some sane voices in these forums at last... It is a fact that no religion preaches hate. It is important that the "Thekedars" of the religion are taught to refrain from inciting the masses for their individual gain...

I am sorry to disagree with you guys. Infact, most of the religions teach/preach that their religion is superior to others and hence its their duty to convert the people who follow wrong path to the right one. If that is the case, how a religious person can respect other religion? Isn't that this fundamental notion of the religion root cause of dividing people and eventually nourish terrorism?

I shall recommend your name to the cleric of the local mosque in our area for the friday sermon. And I am sure if you preach there, you sure shall have some fatwa against you.

This is just your false illusion. Sometime go and talked to the cleric of local mosque or just go to mosque, you find the difference on your own. They follow the religion and are good ppl. Just try it at least ones.
