Each people has to educate himself/herself at first, truly to be educated.

I agree with you about Islam's gentleness but some islamic people are not gentle at all.
This can be said about any nation or tribe.

Contrary to the media's onslaught against islam, muslims are pretty hospitable and tolerant people.

Quote:
There are muslims killing their daughters and beating their wives.. The article is just about being not extremist.
Yeah, no doubt there are psychos out there...but physical abuse and violence against women are prevalent in the west than in muslim countries.

Recently a white/christian man in ottawa killed both his wife and infant daughter...no one discussed his religious affiliation.

Like;

For example this part tells that wearing shalwar or leaving a beard doesnt make u muslim at all. You can shave your beard but still live islam. You can learn science and islam together. You can go to the cinema and get out when prayer time comes. This is where the article turns around. I dont think you're against those, are you?
I understand what you're saying...i've lived in Pakistan and i can tell you that most people in cities don't wear shalwar kameez, especially the youth. Going to a mosque clean-shaven in urban areas with pants, jeans, suit, etc. on is as common as it is in the west, and no-one makes an issue of it.

The Turk being treated unfairly because of his clean shave and western dresscode is one isolated case that the article is glorifying to insult Islam...

And I dont wanna waste 5 mins of my life reading the rest of the article...
