This message DESERVES a flame !! Here I go.... Read up your history texts
to find out....... broke idols vs temples sounds lame.  Looks like you have
been brainwashed/coached by some muslim fundamentalist. Go to hell.

Allah is not the only damned god. Leave each person unto himself/herself.....

Yeah right !!!  That is perfectly OK huh... there is something psychologically
wrong with you.

Jeeze man - if you can;t talk without quoting Allah or religion, please shut the
**** up !

We sit back.  Tell me who we equals.... if ya do this,  then you accept a
difference between Muslims and others - which is a fact that is not to be tolerated !

It is the only religion that preaches you to kill in the name of god (Jihad).
That makes the religion inherently barbaric.

Muslims do not come across as wimpy - they do come across as stupidly agressive
though.

I thought that's what all people (non athiests) do.... what you put in your
place of worship (an idol/an altar whatever) is your funeral.

Hmm... this would have been a well written paragraph - except that you mentioned
religion in it again.

Yeah - so nuke someone right ?  Go get a life..... and learn to be reasonable.
What the Hindus are doing is wrong, but I hate your attitude.
