I have no problem with any religion but I hate all radicals of their such religion. People that think they are above the religion and above others.
And Izzz, I hate to burst your bubble, but if you want to be a real muslim, you are not allowed to smoke, drink and gamble ... period. Unless you just consider yourself a 65% muslim.
So many people say they are a religion, yet they don't follow the rules. Its ok to believe in certain parts of a religion but if you are not fully practicing that religions "laws" then you really arn't all that religious. Thats why I'm a non-practicing jew. I was raised by a jewish family but i don't believe in any religion. I believe in simple things like ... Do Unto Others As You'd Have Them Do Unto You. If you follow the GOLDEN RULE ... then you will live a respectful and wonderful life.

Someone else who knows what he is talking about.
Most people who call themselves Muslim are not Muslim but do have some kind of Islamic background, just as you are not Jewish but you do have some kind of Jewish background. Of course, they get terribly upset when they are told that, but should we lie just to avoid hurting their feelings?
