If this is your first time checking out a debate, here are some quick tips to help get you started:
Arguments with the highest score are displayed first.
Argument replies (both in favor and in opposition) are displayed below the original argument.
To follow along, you may find it helpful to show and hide the replies displayed below each argument.
To vote for an argument, use these icons:
You have the power to cast exactly one vote (either up or down) for each argument.
Once you vote, the icon will become grayed out and the argument's score will change.
Yes, you can change your vote.
Debate scores, side scores and tag scores are automatically calculated by an algorithm that primarily takes argument scores into account.
All scores are updated in real-time.

If you would like to address an existing argument, use the Support and Dispute link within that argument to create a new reply.
Yes, of course, because of the effect of mass-media, it propagands that Islam is connected with terrorism, but it is not connected with each other. All terrorists who commit suiside just because of the religion, are not exactly real muslims, they believe in other course of islam, even I believ that they just pretend being muslim, in order to some people's profits. Islam never teachs people to sacrifice themeselves just because of religion, it is just delusion of people.
yea they did! according to what i hear from lots of people ''muslims are all terrorists and bad people...they are they are criminals nd allot other things....'' well they are not!
People were angry at the fact that a mosque was being built near ground zero. This anger must symbolize the comparision that people are making between a mosque, muslims, and terrorists.
Yeah, there could be a totally different reason such as someone doesn't want "anything" being built near ground zero but im pretty sure the comparison above is one of them.
A future friend of mine in ninth grade told me to "go home" so he compared me to those terrorists on 9/11.
Have you watched the movie "My name is Khan." I think you will love it. It would be hard to watch it a second time because it is so heartfelt. The movie is about America's view on muslims. Im a little skeptical on how the movie portrayed this anger towards muslims because i think it was a little over exaggerated. However, i did see on television one time this white male person say that all muslims deserve to go to jail.
It depends who you'd peg as a terrorist. If terrorist meaning the US government, I'd say Yes. I find it despicable that in America, they are still willing to buy into the same Nazi tactics Hitler used to create nationalism/patriotism. It is sad that people don't read or think for themselves, and judge a whole religion based upon a few extremists.
i am talking about terrorists in general and those who say they are muslims in specific...and it is true what u said...It is sad that people don't read or think for themselves, and judge a whole religion based upon a few extremists.
Well,if the limits exceed you've to blame the religion,surely,it's the people that define the religion and these terroists have proven Islam is a brutal religion.
Yes but you see, those people say they are muslims, yet they do the opposite of islam. you know, those people kill muslims as well and i am saying that because it happened in my country. I lost 3 of my close friends who were muslims because of people like that. They portray islam in a wrong way. muslims have no right to end other people's lives. We are neither the givers nor the takers of lives.
Yeah absolutely sorry for what happened to your friends and I do understand your point and I'm not saying that the terrorists are always Muslims but again they bring to focus the various texts and scriptures of Quoran which make us think as if they are willing to demonstrate Islam as a powerful and dangerous religion perpetrating all these brutal killings;Besides there examples like the Boko Haram,Egypt IS,ISIS, Al-Qaida which constitute a majority of Muslims so you can't really deny the Muslims are themselves responsible for tainting their religion and drawing world-wide criticism.I wholly agree with your last statement.
Ohhh yes, you are 100% true. Many Muslims have helped in tainting the reputation of their own religion. Especially those who defend Islam in an aggressive way...Muslims who shout or curse other people for having a different opinion. It really is a shame that many muslims act in a way that raises a wrong picture of Islam while trying to defend it and not representing Islam the right way. It is all because of people who are muslims but are not into their religion enough to know the right things from the wrong, those who are easily manipulated. I agree with your statement.
Well if you agree with me you should make that guy wanting those facts understand what I'm saying;He's simply making me go brain-wrecked;He needs source if you know plz tell him otherwise there's would be no end to this debate.
Give me one example mate that these organizations do not comprise a majority of Muslims,it's proven- Abu Bakr-al Baghdadi, Abu Omar al-Baghdadi certainly they're not Christians besides they owe allegiance to ISIL, Mujahideen Shura Council, Boko Haram,nobody can disagree regardless of how much you try to shout away the effect of my points.

Again, provide a SINGLE source that shows these organizations make up the majority of the 1.6 BILLION Muslims in the world.
Do you think these organizations are fools to publish their records of their members,certainly not,what I'm saying is that if an organization(terrorist)is headed by a Muslim,you can definitely conclude it has a high proportion of Muslims.Besides there are many newspapers publishing these groups really are really Muslim-dominated.You see the chief executioner of the ISIS ,Jihadi John(look at youtube footage of the beheadings,you're gonna get a good idea)well he is Muslim (proof :wikipedia)killing tons and spoling the name of Islam.

Actually, what you said was "Besides there examples like the Boko Haram,Egypt IS,ISIS, Al-Qaida which constitute a majority of Muslims"
Those are two VERY different statements. Of course a majority of the people in those organizations are Muslim, that does NOT mean that those organizations constitute a majority of all Muslims.
