No I don't agree with parents educating their kids on all religons, that does not make any sense at all, I'm sure most Hindu parents only teach Hinduism to their kids because that is what they would like them to be.
Islamic kids in the middle east and other parts of the world are basically taught to hate other religons particularly above all Chistianity and Judaeism.
If you educate your children on religon it should only be the faith you follow, if you are educating them about every religon, you may as well admit to being an aethiest, as they have no clear resolution on what exactly is God and why we should worship him. |
Children are not the property of the parents, to be moulded as they see fit. The parents are responsible for bringing up their children to the best of their ability, and unless you are from some backwater community that doesn't know anything of other religions, that includes educating them on other religions and cultures.
In the city I come from, Middlesbrough, there is an area called South Bank, that is dominated by muslims, about 6000 of them. And they don't spout the crap you sguuest they do. When I went to Turkey the Muslims I met there were the friendliest people I have ever met. So don't stereotype a people purely on your Fox News education. |
Sterotyping, there we it have one of the dummest word's bleated by PC tools such as yourself ever to be widely put into use.
Children are not property as you so blandly put it, I never said they were, your saying if Parents don't educate their kids on every religon in the world, they are bad parents, your talking PC drivel now, get a tissue, and wipe your mouth.
My education on Muslims comes from alot wider sources than your Fox network, I only have to look at the way they treat other religons today, and throughout history to know they are a brutal religon.
Do you like the way they treat women G.Adams, in alot of parts in the Middle East, they rock women in the face if they see them without a veil covering the lower half of their face, I assume probably rightly you have feminist's as friends, what do they think of your acceptance of a religon that is so cruel to women.
Turkish moslems are also part of Turkey, the most western friendly moslem nation in the world, and usually co operate with western governments, rather than Middle eastern ones, I thought you would have realised that by now.
I for one would love to visit Turkey, for Gallipoli rememberance, a battle my country fought the Turks in 1915 and lost after nine months of incredible bravery and rotten decisions from English armchair generals. [/b][/quote]
Fine, you don't like the word stereotyping? Instead I'll expand it to 'you make generalisations of the people of an entire religion based upon the actions of some of its adherants'. And you certainly do that.

Just one of your many generalisations of an entire religion. So Muslims are a brutal people. Except for the Turks. And the Malaysions. And the West Africans. And the Iraqi's. And the tens of millions scattered throughout the Western World. Thats a lot of none brutal muslims.
Can you not realise that when people use the Muslim religion, or any religion in fact, as a tool of oppression against anyone, be it Jews, Women, Gays etc that it is not religious, but political? People have used and continue to use religion as a means to further their own ends, but that doesn't mean the religion itself is brutal.
