Just one more Muslim "tradition" that shocked me!

Has anyone seen the video of the Muslims tossing their babies over a wall, watching them fall about 50 feet, and catching them in a towel?

Seriously, they believe that this will bring good luck!

Is it any wonder that this religion receives so much criticism from the rest of the world?

Next for one to beleive anything they see on you tube or almost any part of the internet without finding out more.
I have never believed in censorship unless it is done to protect children.

Many times, people hold beliefs that are sometimes based on ignorance. It is only by way of open discussion, and the disclosure of facts perhaps unknown, that they can learn things they don't already know, or correct things they think they do know.

I did not view the video on you tube or the internet, it was played on 3 major news programs yesterday.

If I am in fact ignorant about the Muslim faith, then perhaps there are people here who can teach me the errors of my opinions. I didn't read anything in your post that presents an argument in defense of this statement:

"I believe that the Muslim faith teaches that anyone who does not follow the Muslim faith must be killed. That God actually rewards them for doing so with many virgins (not sure what the exact number is) when they get to heaven".

I am not trying to piss anyone off, what could I possibly gain from that?

If someone is "anti" anything, they have reasons for being so. I have expressed my reasons for what I believe, which is what anyone should be able to do in a forum that is designed for open discussion.

There is open discussion and there is posts with a negitive slant. And often a fine line between disscussion and attacking the faith of others.
I am obvoiusly not Muslim so it is not because of personal beleifs but would do this action for any religious beleifs
