Ever hear these debates about Mormons, Buddhists, Scientologists, Atheists, Catholic immigrants?

Islam teaches to die as a muslim so that you can reach paradise. we do not force anyone to become Muslim.\nAnd anyone who has long beard and the name Abdulla , Sultan or even osama bin laden doesnt make him ot her a muslim.\nEven if you dress like a muslim , that doesnt mean you are a muslim, it is what is in your heart that makes you a muslim and only Allah knows bcoz he see all ,hears all nd mot even a leaf falls without his command

it's about time Canada . either they live according to the culture of this country or they go back to where they came from , they get all the advantages that Canada gives them which they don't have in their own countries and they come hear to impose their religion and culture on us , plus terrorize us

My experience in Canada has been largely positive, with only minimal racial difficulties.  As a teenager, I do recall some kids making blatantly racist comments, when I was the only minority in the room; but they were silly girls, popular and full of themselves, and most of the students who heard did not laugh with them. We all knew it was wrong.  Another time I was told, by an agent, that a potential employer claimed she would not hire me because of my race.  I did not hear these words firsthand, though, so it was impossible for me to verify the truth. In the end, I let the matter alone. Other people,  I realize, have endured severe injustices; such have not been my experience, but this does not subtract from their reality.  Indeed, racism does exist, and shall remain as long as there are imbeciles wallowing in the mire of ignorance, people who cling to an absurd sense of superiority for lack of something more meaningful to hold.  As well--and it must be said!--quite likely, we all have, at some point, entertained discriminatory thoughts. 'Tis not a 'black and white' problem but a human one, and we must be mindful of it beginning with ourselves.  Canada, then, with its many inhabitants and complex history, will never be the exception. We can't expect perfection among people, here or anywhere else in the world.  Even so,  I believe there are enough fellow Canadians who strive to treat people as individuals and are happy to make friends across cultures.  My life has been and continues to be a testament to that!  Whatever our troubles, we still retain a proud heritage of diversity and progressive ethnic harmony.  We do try, and for this reason I love my country.  I am deeply patriotic and immensely proud to be part of it!  

it's so sad and pathetic.... I feel sorry fory you England!! Living in your country, and hearing things like - go away!! you cannot be here!! shame...

hear hear, it really pisses me off, these bigoted people who think that they have some god given or racial claim to land. some of these people just do not want to listen. extremism vs extremism i suppose. just amazes how much propaganda these people are susceptible too, to have such views.

Dear Kelly, Islam is really violent and nasty. Dont bother trying to defend them. Havent yet heard a word about the continous murder of christian or Pakistan women who wanted to get an education. Or yet to hear them condemn the shooting in her head of the schoolgirl Malala. and so on and so on.

hahaha comical!....Muslim patrol my fuckin arse. A bunch of thugs on the streets harassing women and gays on our streets!....I wonder what these idiots would do if a group of British marines or paras came walking down their street. You wouldn't hear a fuckin peep out of the cowards. Fact.

British law who punished the rioters? How come I didn't hear about hundreds of thousands of criminals serving a punishement? Because that's how many there were my friend! Muslims did not do this to, how can you say that?\n\nWe do not support such thing, we are peace.\n\n

islam and christianity ( in your view catholic christianity) both forbid masturbation so why would you say that im sure you know that they would never do such a thing. im glad to hear you are a catholic christian so are you of the great roman catholic church or the righteous orthodox catholic? \npeace be upon on you christian brother oh and i dont think your parents should burn. so are your parents nice my parents are very nice to me im sure yours are to you\nwell goodbye

Muslims treats their women as special. Most muslim women are house wife and men take care of them out of way. We do not like our women to be stared at that is why our most women choose to cover up. Wht you hear about islam, muslim and muslim women is mostly propaganda through western media who is own and operated by zionist inorder to create hate. This hate is means they use to start wars..bcoz when wars are fought their weapon are sold in trillions , as G8 countries manufacture & sell weapons.

Yes I did hear, you might want to take a second look at that. They aren't using Hinduism to justify their actions, Ironically they are defending themselves from...guess who!?...muslims. And Israel is defending themselves from ...guess who!?...muslims.

Can someone explain to me who is Prophet Muhavenodick is? Keep hearing about him, is that his real name? Or was he named that because he doesn't have a dick? I'm confused, any help would be appreciated. Thanks
