Thoughts and prayers are with the family of the poor soldier viciously killed today in woolwich, it is only a few miles from me, very worrying indeed.

 

RIP mate :(

I agree that not all Muslims are terrorists but it seems that all terrorists are Muslims

 

Not really, the IRA is the most obvious other example. Nazis weren't either and they undertook far more attrocities than all terrorist groups combined.

Just found out he was from middleton in Manchester where I live.

it's something we all forget all too readily ... as Z32bolt has said in the past out enemies have been other Christians and further back in history Britain was seething pool of hate between Protestants and Catholics.

 

As has been said too many people use any excuse to take control of other people, gain power and cause death.

 

Although I firmly believe that the majority of Muslims are good peace loving people it is very worrying when a predominant part of their faith is to follow the ways of the founder.

I would advise everyone to read or at least do a bit of research on the stories of Muhammad and the Hadith.

 

Unlike Christ, Muhammad followed a very different path.

 

My point being that although the current followers have their own interpretation of the teachings, it is a lot easier to be radicalized if there are already radical actions in what you read.

 

I would like to believe that the peace loving tolerant Muslims can stop the extremists but looking at Syria and previous history in the middle easy with different factions of Muslim against each other I am a little pessimistic.

 

Agree 100%
