Or you'd get charged with a hate-crime for insulting Islam. :shrug:
Actually, how many TV shows have so represented Muslims since 9/11? Or even since the first WTC bombing attempt?
TV Shows, Films, and the media generally, very rarely depict people with any religious views, or for that matter political views, whatever. To do that would require scriptwriters to produce three dimensional characters.
true but not the reason. Their sponsor wants all viewers to identify with some characters or at least certainly not be offended by a character with different religious or political POV.
I think most script writers would love to create 3D characters, but if they did, they would need to find a new job.
Part of the appeal of the old Archie bunker show was that it had 3D characters but carefully balanced between red neck Archie and hippie left wing boyfriend of daughter.

correction: the extremism in some muslim countries, and suppression, only appeared in the late 3 centuries, that's when the muslim civilisation copletly fell, and europe woke up.

So that's how they teach history in a Muslim country...eh?
There is nothing so sublime as the distain of fools. Also you forgot atheists.
Wrong. Mecca on up.
It seems Islamism did suck up to Christianity and the Hebrew bible, only it selected what it thought would win over both these belief systems. It appears that first the new Muslims tried to impress the Jews by doctrines of Judaism, then it took from the Gospels - it discarded the resurrection because it saw this as Jews being more correct here, as opposed being different. But it did not work - Judaism and Christianity saw the ploy of a half backed acceptance, then assumed as transcended by the figurehead of Mohammed. Islam has to use the sword and mass murder to beget its adherants, and maintains this today by threats for anyone having second thoughts.

I looked but see nothing new given by Islam, all its doctrines and practices come directly from other belief systems: facing a sacred place when praying; making a blessing when a sacred name is mentioned; prompt burial of the dead; Hallal instead of Kosher; exaggerated doctrines of modest dress and behaviour advocated in Judaism; etc - are direct lift-offs from Judaism and cannot in any wise be seen as new revelation. But such is the nature of the beasts of religions, belief being the easiest faculty to exploit.
Such drivel.
Hate crime: the mosque dumped in Jerusalem, perpetrated with 20/20 vision of a genocidal aspiration. Otherwise presented as a blessing to kill the infidels and today represented in the charade of a mosque to be dumped on the 9/11 site. Maybe the mosque in Jerusalem is meant to show Islam is a peaceful religion - you think!? G-thanx and same to Mecca!
More drivel: Today Muslims pray facing Mecca. But originally, they prayed facing Jerusalem, thinking this would make all Jews salute them and sign on the dooted line of the quran - this was abruptly changed when the Jews rejected this offer! It was not Allah but Mohammed to changed his mind when rebuffed.
Apart from the opinion, which is a fairly standard dismissal of Islam, his posts contain quite a few facts which I have always thought to be true.
Could you expand on that?
Thank you, I would have said the same.
