i agree with you. of course, i dont hate muslims or christians or hindus. in fact the opposite is true, i like almost everyone, on some level. my dad, who is the best person i know by a wide margin, is a christian. i mean to say there is a huge difference between liking and respecting a person and liking and respecting their beliefs. i havent meant to imply that i think being a jackass is a good idea, only that i woiuld like the world a little better if people could have a more honest dialogue with each other. some of the better conversations you can have are with people who disagree mightily with your views, but dont get mad talkin bout it. i dont like that politicians have to say things like "islam is a peaceful religion".
