i think it is these kind of things available on the internet that incites such radical actions among Muslims; which then proceeds to escalate and then the coming of the label: terrorist.
it is like.
them saying these things.
then we saying the exact same things about them too, just that the victims were reversed.
is it really beneficial posting such resources where anyone can read them?
oh, right, i forgot: freedom of speech. yeah.
quote by william blake: " Truth can never be told so as to be understood and not to be believed."
one crucial point to note with reference to the contents of the web. Truth as told by WHO? of course each defend their own side; hence, each believed their own 'truths' and seeks to debunk the other 'truths'. logic.
excerpt:"Truth can sometimes be exceedingly hot and bitter. If you find any
statement in this book to be offensive, be sure it is not intended to be."
just by writing that sentence alone contradicts to its purported intention. in the first place, if u dont intend to offend anyone, do not post the entire content of the book online where any 'potential-muslim-terrorist' might gain access to it; and who may not possess the extremely high degree of TOLERANCE that i am excercising now. i am really wondering what kinds of material are censured in the net...when materials like this and also this http://iidb.infidels.org/vbb/archive/index.php/t-63221.html are available. seems to suggest a lot to me. but i am powerless to influence anything, and i therefore, i have no right to proceed further with this thought. so, shush, me.
many subjects were addressed in this website that reflects how deeply they had researched Islam before commenting upon them. i mean, oh come on..let's debate and discuss over these rather than outrightly thrashing the teachings of the other religion. afterall, "i worship not what u worship and u worship not what i worship. to u your religion and to me mine." (surah Al-Kafirun)
but, please, by all means, go ahead and read this website. =)
must excercise freedom of action and thought, right?

i think this second website is more objective. Far more more more objective. and it even provided me with info that even i didnt know and had thought wrongly before! especially the conclusion. and nowhere in this website do i read any inciteful sentences. it is written in completely neutral tones and is analytical. it is then up to oneself to judge.
in my opinion, times have become so modern that we risk becoming arrogant and therefore seek to reject religion. and (any)religion is never irrelevant. of course, again this is my opinion. to me, i view Islam as more of a guidance and way of life than a religion. what i have written, i start with "In my opinion" or sth along those lines.
i am a fool for wanting to believe that racial and religious discrimination can be eradicated. it still exists EVERYWHERE, either subtly or forthrightly. in the second weblink i pasted earlier, some guy even mentioned that the Quran is a war book. sighs. >.<
ok! enough of all this mulling around. time to be just-a-student-mugging-for-a lvls...hopefully my friends wont think im some pyscho emo kid who is thinking abt stuffs that im not supposed to be thinking of, and writing it in my blog some more.
