is killing one other good in islam am thinking
about becoming one

It seems to me with these vast majorities of Muslim people who disagree with Bin Laden, and with the brave individuals who went to the Muslim Summit in St. Petersburg, someone would surface to pursue a "one voice" effort against the radicals who seem to gain the floor amongst them....

Where is the "one voice" leader amongst the muslims?

It is impossible to say that a religion with 1.5 followers allows killing of innocent children on the aircraft travelling to see their grandparents . Terrorism is out of real Islam .

Is this supposed to make me feel like Islam is a "religion of peace" - that *only* 8% of American Muslims think that suicide bombing is OK? And that's the second-lowest number? This poll confirms every fear and prejudice I might have.

If Islam is not something to die for, why are these suicide bombers killing themselves? What motivates people to give up perfectly good lives for a cause and what is their cause? Why do they think it is right and just to kill themselves and other civilians? Until we understand the suicide bomber's motives we will never be able to stop them. While I can understand dying for what I believe in, I would never kill for it. I need to know what makes others want to kill for what they beleive in as well as die for it.

Pew Researchers,

The major issues are the foundations of the major contemporary religions. Has your group researched these foundations? If so, "what sayest thou" about the following:

1. Abraham founder/father of three major religions was probably a mythical character. If he was real, he was at best a combination of at least three men. 1.5 million Conservative Jews and their rabbis have relegated Abraham to the myth pile along with most if not all the OT.

2. Jesus, the illiterate Jewish peasant/carpenter possibly suffering from hallucinations, has been characterized anywhere from the Messiah from Nazareth to a mythical character from mythical Nazareth. Analyses of his life by many contemporary NT scholars (e.g. Professors Crossan, Borg and Fredriksen, On Faith panelists)via the NT and related documents have concluded that only about 30% of Jesus' sayings and ways noted in the NT were authentic. The rest being embellishments (e.g. miracles)/hallucinations made/had by the NT authors to impress various Christian sects.

3. Mohammed, an illiterate, hallucinating Arab, also had embellishing/hallucinating scribal biographers who not only added "angels" and flying chariots to the Koran but also a militaristic agenda to support the plundering and looting of the lands of non-believers.
This agenda continues as shown by the conduct of the seven Muslim doctors in the UK, the 9/11 terrorists, the 24/7 Sunni suicide/roadside/market/mosque bombers , the 24/7 Shiite suicide/roadside/market/mosque bombers , the Bali crazies, the Kenya crazies, the Pakistani koranics, the Palestine suicide bombers/rocketeers, the Lebanese nutcases and the Filipino koranics i.e. a summary of the War on Terror-the Muslim "who are the bad guys" Problem.
4. Luther, Calvin, Smith, Henry VIII, Wesley et al, founders of Christian-based religions, also suffered from the belief in/hallucinations of "pretty wingy thingie" visits and "prophecies" for profits analogous to the myths of Catholicism (resurrections, apparitions, ascensions and immaculate conceptions).

5. Hinduism (from an online Hindu site) - "Hinduism cannot be described as an organized religion. It is not founded by any individual. Hinduism is God centred and therefore one can call Hinduism as founded by God, because the answer to the question ‘Who is behind the eternal principles and who makes them work?’ will have to be ‘Cosmic power, Divine power, God’"
The caste/laborer system and cow worship are problems when saying a fair and rational God founded Hinduism."

6. Buddhism- "Buddhism began in India about 500 years before the birth of Christ. The people living at that time had become disillusioned with certain beliefs of Hinduism including the caste system, which had grown extremely complex. The number of outcasts (those who did not belong to any particular caste) was continuing to grow."

"However, in Buddhism, like so many other religions, fanciful stories arose concerning events in the life of the founder, Siddhartha Gautama (fifth century B.C.):"

Archaeological discoveries have proved, beyond a doubt, his historical character, but apart from the legends we know very little about the circumstances of his life.

Bottom line: There are many good ways of living but be aware of the hallucinations/embellishments and myths surrounding the founders of said rules of life.

See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Historical_Jesus for an analysis of Jesus' life to include his illiteracy.
