This is a great example to me of how offbase people can be of religion and spirituality. We ignorantly generalize and devalue people because they share the same religion as those who we see causing trouble in the world. More people have killed in the name of Christianity than any other religion in history. So condemning 100% of Islamists based on the actions of a small percentage of them is not only ignorant, its a level of hypocrisy that is simply ridiculous. I have Muslim friends who are some of the nicest and most respectful people Ive ever met. They are also some of the most self disciplined people I know. I am a very, very devout Christian, and purest essence of my spirituality is not considering, but acknowledging that 100% of the people on earth are realistically Gods children. Not some, but ALL. My daughter is mixed, and half of her family practices Islam, although I raise her to be a good Christian. I dont agree with that belief, but I studied it to understand it in order to better understand half of her family. 1.5 billion people practice this faith, while you judge them ALL based on the actions of those from a handful of small 3rd world countries whom practice that religion. Nazi Germany were Christians, as well as a major handful of other corrupt nations in history. Whether from a stranger on the street, or from a close friend..When I hear condemning comments towards somebody based on their spiritual beliefs just because its the same religion as those associated with terrorism, or whatever world situation..I am automatically assuming that person is ignorant and foolish. The biggest problem in this world are people who barely work, who are selfish with their property, who are judgmental, and ignorant of facts. If you are ALL of those, then you are probably one of the ones who are so foolish. We are ALL Gods children..everyone of us.
