Change only comes by affecting change .. butt changes need to be beneficial for both parties involved...
But the changes you are suggesting..op.. would not benefit both parties.. but in order for that to happen your opposition would have to be open to the idea... that their belief systems could be wrong.. in other words !they would have to be opened.. to the idea of having at least real dialogue... be truly open to hearing what the other party has to say... sadly your opposition is not!!..
.. and when one is faced with closed-minded opposition... it is better to move or to seek out people with similar thinking of yourself... one cannot fight the current you either swim Downriver with it ..or get out of the water completely..yup

I don't think one can change people by critique.
it works in opposite direction.

Somehow, with all the oil & the discipline of Koran
the average young Muslim appears to be under educated in sciences.
I have met smart trainees in Mid East; superb guys
but low science & English; felt sad;
another generation wasted away.

As you may know, with science a whole different mind-space
opens up. and the byproducts are automatic,
one actually starts to appreciate world history.

For instance, i still ask myself;
why was India sleeping in the 17-18th centuries ?
a turning point in world history.

There may be other ways but science teachers
are unforgettable; could help next generation.

i don't know of any other way, especially when dealing with fanatics... religious people don't want their ways/beliefs changed...

luck at the history of USA, lots of blood has been shed to get where we are...

...honestly...I only recently have been trying to have a better understanding of Islam ...and frankly...wow...I can say my dad was right...it is impossible to be a true Muslim and reside in USA ...and truthfully speaking...I admire anyone who stands behind their heart,soul,and mind ...but all of these are infected by deliberate poor teaching...silly little sheep...

they only way things can change is brave men/women doing what they think is right... the more people that can believe things as you do will start the change, but you cannot do anything if you don't try...

Move to a nation where freedoms of speech and religion exist.

The first thing to do would be remove your photo.Then stop drawing attention to yourself.

...I am by far no expert...but depending where you are...I would say proceed with caution ...and wish you much strength and hope...

i'm still alive...

This has nothing to do with where someone is from. This is about that the world needs to get rid of danger. Its boring to get the same "excuses", about different things non-muslims did to either protect their land and people looong ago (as they obviously still need to do) or it was conducted by powerhungry people and had nothing to do with for example Christianity (to the very contrary of killings in islams founders name and accoerding to his very conduct). Its about we are in this century still needing to fight against crazy ideologies such as islam. why? because it wasnt shut down then. Why? excuses after excuses and references that has nothing to do with THE FACT THAT ISLAM IS TRYING TO RIP THE WORLD APART N O W. again. no other believers in anything else is terrorizing the world like that. ignorance is obviously very dangerous. islamists have used the very attitudes of many non-muslims to even enter societies and try ripping them apart, and what is astonishing is that despite recent Paris and all whats happened and happening in the name of (real)islam, people have the audacity (here or elsewhere) to even try twisting it around and putting it up for being about freedoms of whatever sort. this is exactly and only about PROTECTING THOSE FREEDOMS, and to do so, one needs to shut islam down. and this has nothing to do with someones personality, hate or not. its only about realizing the threat and shutting it down. if this was germany ww2, this would be discussion about the nazis, and the ignorant would try such for hitler and nazism. problem is, what happened when also they realized whats going on and what nazism truly is - after the horrifics? and, for those trying to downplay islamists part in nazism, they killed with and for hitler, however others he found interesting to only read about, islamists helped him to actually kill. opportunists cant get any opportunity from those who do not share their whatever. islam is always an open opportunity for slaughter of non-muslims, obviously even today. why? islam is about submission. meaning whomever wants true liberty and stands up for it, will be up for slaugheter. instead of wasting time and efforts on pointing at those who are in realization in forums like this or wherever else, try to understand the real reality of islam (well, its actually not hard, turn on the tv and check what those terrorizing beleive in), get educated by non-muslims who speaks out about islam, so that you can take that blindfold off and start helping to make this a better world by shutting islam down. as i said, why i leave this site (only remained this long for you to see this) is because i would do the same if this was ww2 and they allowed nazisupporters to roam around and use peoples freedoms against them, and since i realize it when several others dont but should.

Those who would try the "hater" thing. You obviously dont know me but think you do. Doublestandards.

This has nothing to do with a persons feelings, its about realization. This is not about agreeing or not, its about realizing this is a threat that needs to be stopped and how.

If trying to help out and make people realize how to help the world become a better world by realizing and getting rid off an ideology that is ripping the world apart is referred to as "hate" by you and others, then im happy to be a "hater". you go on being the selfproclaimed "non-hater", but that doesnt stop people from being slaughtered and societies from being ripped apart by islam. on the contrary.

Yes thats y if v r asking fr friendship girl directly ask your profesion and age

I totaly agree with u bro

My life is complicated. I am a mother and I am married . However I am a lesbian. My husband knows this has always known and Very supportive and allows me to have relationships with women as long as I don't leave him. Being with him has protected me from violence and being disowned by my family..But yet I feel trapped and desire to be with a woman freely Without all the baggage. I'm so depressed and I feel so alone.But at the same time I feel selfish for desiring to leave as he is kind , accepting and my best friend. Anyone else going through similar?
