I wouldn't like this kind of things to happen being a devout Christian myself. Muslim people should not be judge just because they're Muslims. But if what you've stated that Bush's main misssion to invade Muslim Country is to either kill them or force them to convert then its like he's putting his head on a platter ready for any Muslims to strike him. Muslims are humans too and deseve the right to be who they are.

Here is some food for thought profound2me. If you or any other Muslims become citizens and go door to door spreading your religion in the USA you might annoy some people but it is very very unlikly that anyone is going to do any bodily harm to you for it. On the other hand if a Christian goes to Pakistan and tries to do the same thing I bet it wouldn't be long before someone would slit their throat and you know the neighbors and police would probably give them a pat on the back for it! I can cite numerous times that things just like this have happened in Pakistan and other Islamic countries. If you ask me to I will provide you with specific events, to whom these things happened, when it happened and people who know about it happening. I have a friend right here on myLot with a personal horror story or two of Islam and people she knows. Just ask and I will post about it. Now tell me one more time which religion is more tolerant of the other? One more thing. Those missionaries are not going use any kind of force of any kind to convert you to christianity. You can always ask them to leave and close the door. However in many countries around the world people would be hard pressed to be able to buy goods at a shop, obtain a job or even be treated like a human being unless they were Muslim. Now you claim in your opening statement that "Bush is to make the Muslism either DIE or make them Suffer and to the suffering muslims, these missionaries knocking door with smile and selling their Book to win a CONVERT" I want you to give me some specific examples of where this is suppose to be happening where "Bush is to make the Muslim either DIE or make them suffer" and specifics on the events.

At the present time I am with my fiance in Sedona Arizona. He is Mormon, and we have become friends with the local Mormon Missionaries. They know I do not plan to convert, and he is not the kind of Mormon who will try and talk me into converting. We are both friends with the Missionaries, and we have had some wonderful discussions.

Missionaries have nothing to do with our government. Our government has rules that it has to stay out of religion... I feel sad that you hear and believe this kind of stuff because it makes you misinformed and ignorant to the important issues in todays world. Muslims live in America, there are tons of them. They flock here from countries around the world. Muslims are just like any other addition to American society (if they try). America doesnt hate muslims, it is Muslims in Middle Eastern countries that spout that rhetoric about us to make trouble.

Missionaries have been doing their work for a very long time, so it's unfair to say that "Christian missionaries" have anything to do with Bush or a war on Muslims. It feels odd for me to be defending Christians considering I spent much of my young life being discriminated against by them myself, but I do know some very good Christians these days, and they would defend my religion when such misinformation came up. I'm not saying that I agree with what missionaries do. When they manage to actually help people in less fortunate countries in concrete, physical ways (through food, medicine, etc), then that's great, but I don't really agree with going to someone else's country and trying to spread your religious ideas there. However, they have been doing it for a very long time, and it is neither something new or any way related to current events.
