Islam isn't the enemy.
Anyway, my knowledge is "very little"-"I have studied it".

Btw, thedevilf is Muslim. He's the only Muslim here that I know of.

Your point being? It is a poll without member's choice being publicized and I guess we should allow each and every member for themself to express what religion one believes in or not.

I for one am a non-denominational (in the US) and lutheran christian (in Germany). However, having to study other religions is part of your basic studies in highschool. All I wondered about is the knowledge of the members of the religion that wrongfully is blamed for the terrrorist attacks and whose God is being abused by extremists.....

Just commenting. He's been open about his faith, I'm sure he doesn't mind.

And when I say "I have studied it", I don't mean like heavy studying, just learning what is taught in 9th grade honors Global History & Geography, which is basically the historical basis, and the 5 pillars of faith...and that's about it.

I am Muslim. I know a lot about Islam. Islam isnt "the enemy". Yet our Ex-President/Next Term, King (If Elected, pretty sure electoral college will). Thinks Differently. I saw something in USA TODAY like "Islam is the Enemy, USA vs ISLAM". Shame. I am disgusted.

BTW, Diablo isnt Grisu one of those new political people that came to BG?

If yes, you dont want to debate with him, he will kick your ass.
