Hate Muslims? But why?
Every one has a right to practice the religion. So do Muslms!! I find many Christians in this forum who mock Islam and talk illogically about Muslims. I have never come across any Jew, Hindu or Budhist to talk like this. My questions
Why Christians behave like this?
Were they taught to hate by Jesus?
Why do they draw cartoons of my prophet, Muslims never think to treat Jesus like this, why they do then?
Are Christians morally wors than follower of any other religion of this world?

You are right, many Christians do speak hatefully of other religions, however I would not take the actions of these "Christians" to mean that all of us are that way. The bible teaches that we are never supposed to hate, because whatever we do reflects off of God and God doesn't want to be given a bad name which is what most Christians do unintentionally. So, I apologies for those Christians out there that speak so hatefully of everyone else, please don't think of us all that way.

I'm just going to answer all your questions all the way down, the best that I can.
The Problem with the Islamic faith is that THEY are the ones that are truely intolerant. They are taught the "kill the infidel" (which is basically anyone not Muslim). The Extremist Muslims are the ones we hear about on the news, while most of the other ones are required to contribute in some sort of way to train young boys to become the extremists (this is mainly in the Middle East, who knows if there are any extremist in the United States). It's an endless cycle of brainwashing based around the selfish thought that if I kill non-Muslims, I get 72 virgins. That is extremely selfish and intolerant of other religions!
You can't just slap the Christian label on someone who mocks Islam. However Christianity teaches that Christ is the ONLY way to heaven, the exclusivity of it makes it different from all other religions in the world. If there is one religion that teaches that it is the only way to heaven, besides Christianity, please let me know. I've studied alot of world religions and all but one are open to "other ways"
Of course Christian aren't taught to hate by Jesus. We are to love one another and follow the perfect epitome of love, God's unconditional love for us.
Yes, it is direspectful to draw cartoons about religious figures, but people will do it anyway. There shouldn't be a two-week riot, killing people, because of a cartoon. That is extreme. If I reacted that way everytime I saw or hear something disrespectful about Jesus, it would be non-stop. Seeing those, "Jesus is my homeboy" T-shirts are incredibly frustrating for me and the only thing I can do is just have faith that God is going to punish them for it after their life is over.
Christianity is the most moral religion in the world. But lets face it, no matter what the religion teaches, people are going to screw it up anyway. That's part of being born into sin. We are enemies of God because of our offenses toward him. There's a little thing inside of every person called a conscience. It tells us what is right and what is wrong. Coincidentally (or not), a persons conscience goes along with the Ten Commandments and the teachings of Jesus. Not to lie, steal, murder, commit adultery. To honor your father and mother, Love your neighbor as yourself (Gal. 5:14) There is nothing that the teachings of Christianity tell you that you should do that will feel wrong.
Let me know if you have anymore questions. I'm happy to discuss this. kersmackflatter

The hate for Muslims comes from people who are not true Christians and the same goes for Muslims. Allah Needs no help to do his battles nor do the God of Christians I am a Moslem now forget the spelling because it"s the same.And I don't hate anyone.Then again the Muslims go about killing people who have nothing to do with their cause if it's against the government then go for the government not the people living in it. but the Christians did the same didn't they? So there is no good reason to hate Muslim's. The very word Islam means Peace.

Centuries ago, there was a little thing called the Crusades. Perhaps everyone here has heard of it? When the Church slaughtered Muslims? Yeah, that was Christians. These people, taught to love by Jesus, killed so many?? ZOMG! All Christians must be evil! Don't trust Christians! Do you see their sign, their crucifix?? Watch them if you glimpse it! They are most suspect!
Basically what's happening now...

Not all Christians fell, behave, or think that way. I am a Christian and caucasion but I have friends from many different religions, cultures, races. My daughters best friend, who is from Laos and is Budhist, just moved in with us. I love her dearly and respect the differences between us.
Just as it is wrong for Christians to persecute, mock, make fun of, or look down on another religion. It is just as wrong for you to assume that all Christians are hate mongering people. Stereo typing, judging, and discrimating against anyone is just plain wrong period!

we catholics lived by the principles of the 10 commandment, nothing & nothing of it, from 1 to 10, ever mentioned about hatred or to hate anybody, be it christian, muslim and whatever. we were'nt brought up or taught by our church leaders to kill, specially by bombing, using the name or for the praises of our GOD. We mankind were created with brains containing knowledge and informations. Just like Mr Dan Brown who created the Da Vinci Code book, not to offend the christians but to present new posibilities and fictional topics for discussion. Though we believers protest on the idea andd materials, we christian did not resort to riot, bombing of any embassy and any of its kind. we just air our sides and explain every details in a very civilized manner. We cannot control other peoples thinking and feeling. Next time do not generalize your questions and comments. some christians may mock and make fun of others but that doest follow that "ALL" christians are like that.

the answer to this question is quite simple the people doing all the stuff claim to be chritians hence christian means like christ and clearly what these people are doing is not christian and also technaically the muslim word for God is Allah but that is the same God as christians worship except the religions themselves are different also people hate muslims cause the terrorists are muslim and so people think all muslims are bad which is totally wrong

1)clashing religions
2)muslims are classified to be bad because their religion calls for things christians do not agree with
3)9/11 was from arab nations of majority muslism
so an American doesn't want to be unamerican by not agreeing
