Another figure is condemned in his views on the Burka

Richard Dawkins, the outspoken atheist, has courted fresh controversy by likening the burka to a bin liner.


Now let me get this right!
In the western world we can joke about our religion and all is ok. Look at Dave Allen a famous Irish comic always derided the funny things in Catholic society. Everyone loved him.
 
In joking or saying something about the Islamic faith, we are either threatened with a Jihad, or threatened to be killed personally, or shouted in all media about Islamphobia.
 
1. this seems like a really oppressive religion full of bigots, as the Quran doesn't preach this kind of thing.
2. Islamists seems to want to shout everyone down in the world.
 
I have many Muslim friends and they are very dear to me. However, they don't act like this and will accept other peoples point of view.
 
Richard Dawkins is only saying something that is particular to him and the Islamist groups seem to try and say that we are all like that and what we think of Muslims. It isn't, but this is why there are bad feelings!
 
First Muslims have their faith and get on with most people and their culture etc.
Second Islamists are based on Wahabism and won't accept anyone but themselve and that includes my moderate Muslim friends!!
 
Why can't we all learn to live together and respect our own religion?
