So Much Denial That Terrorists Aren't True Muslims

Then, I would just like to ask a blatant question here: "Why is there so much outcry about the Al-Qaida leader - Bin Laden's sea burial?" I have read and posted enough discussions on the area where the Islamic circles' refute and denial that coward extremist terrorist groups like the Al-Qaida ARE NOT Muslims. Yet, when news of the sea burial for the recently killed notorious terrorist leader Osama Bin Laden broke out, I really have to shake my head on the various comments of impropriety from the various Muslim quarters, ranging from their clergies right down to scholars even! Well, HELLO - didn't you people deny ever so readily that these terrorists aren't Muslims and that they do not teach the true Islam? I am sorry but if my memory serves me well, they (terrorists) are extreme blasphemers who I believe the Islamic rites have a proper punishment no lesser than death for them. So, what's with the outcry that sea burial? Is Bin Laden a true Muslim now? Even when he is responsible in killing thousands of Muslims during his dictatorship? What does it say when Saudi Arabia, (the actual birthplace of Bin Laden) had denied to receive the body of the deceased leader for proper ground burial from the US government? Let's not forget that there's a line to be drawn for these perpetrators of the Islamic faith and good Muslims. These arguments will just weave another net and produce more anti non Muslim sentiments which is how terrorism actually thrives in the first place. No offense to the Muslims here but I think it is really the time to draw the line to stop any contradictions within and accord the right punishment to this blasphemer of your good religion. Care to disagree?

As a born again Christian I know that Muslim's hate me for what I believe. They also hate anything that is opposed to what they believe. However having said this, there are Muslim people who are not as religious and they tend to accept people more. Otherwise Muslim people hate people who are not their own religion. They will not even shake their hand. Extreme Muslim's have a lot of hatred inside them and anger. They want to rid the world of anything that is not Muslim. They would rather plant bombs and kill people in an attempt to get rid of anything that does not conform to their ways. By doing this they feel that they are pleasing their God.

Mickie30, I think I will take the initiative to defend the TRUE Muslims where they would not hate people from other faiths including Christians. However, they would still deem that their religion to be the ultimate if you were to consider their people for marriage. On the extremists end, this is where the confusion begins when the Islamic community could actually condone to the Al-Qaidas and company in the name of Allah - which is really evident and disturbing. Yet, they've stood out to deny to the non Muslim world that these groups do not truly represent and belong to them, but never (not once) chastise these errant groups and their dictator. So, it is really scary with whatever is happening at the other end.

Not only was he a "true muslim", but he was an extremely observant muslim. The taliban etc., the "enforcers" of sharia. They know the law inside and out. They are the ones who know more about islam than anyone else so how can anyone say that they are not 'true muslims' They are the fanatics....the fanatics in any religions are the most enthusiastic. They are the ones that feel that everyone must be a part of what they believe. No, the terrorists are the epitome of islam.

Looks like the hard core Muslim commentators here in MyLot are not yet here. I am excited to see them pop up here and see what's their take on this post of yours. This is going to be a hot showdown.
