I was just reading in the news about the attack on a British soldier by two claiming they had done this in the name of Allah. It is important to remember that these extremists are as much a representation of Islam as the Westboro Baptist Church are true representations of Christianity. Unfortunately, the more extreme one is in anything, the more attention it gets so it is often used as an example, but extreme is not norm, please remember this. Although I am not Muslim, I do know and am friends with several and they are just as outraged by these kinds of behaviors as we are. In fact, they are often even more outraged as they are not only disgusted, but now have to deal with those that take situations like these out on them. Every group has those who take things too far and give a bad name to the other members. Like mentioned before, not all Christians stand with the Westboro Church. Not all Whites are members of the KKK. Remember, just as you don't want the actions of others to used against you, so you should not judge others for something they do not participate in. Love to all.
