Catholics have not "kept the Muslims down".  We have been greatly discriminated against ourselves.....but rather than sit around sucking our thumbs, we follow the commandment of God to "love our neighbor as ourself."  And we don't believe in the "Rapture" fyi.  We do, however, believe in Judgement Day. 

Why, if I may be so bold as to ask, are you so insulting toward Catholics?  What have Catholics ever done to you?

God's Peace.

That's very kind of you to say, Jenni.  I think one thing that bothers me somewhat (and I am trying hard not to let these things bother me) is that Catholics do not insult another person's religion or faith.  We believe all people will be judged equally on Judgement Day, and for those who are honestly making their best effort to do God's will and to live a moral, ethical life, God will be merciful to them, and they will go to Heaven.  But I see so much of the reverse from other religions. I read and hear people say that Catholics are "lost", "doomed to hell", etc.  I wonder why this is?

Peace to you Jenni.

maybe i'm wrong, but to me this family seems to be not that religious. ordinary not-educated muslims, may say the opposite of extremists. they seem to convert easily to those people's religion who support them by money, using the innocent word "we want peace".
if they are in real peace now, why the woman doesn't wear hijab following her religion?

Maybe you should make longer posts, StarComm.  People can't really get a good idea of what you are trying to say when you only post single sentences. 

There is a large pile of free electrons by the front door.  Take as many as you need to fully express yourself.

schwester-Who cares if she is wearing a Hijab. It is none of your business. This is all you people care or think about, if someone wears a hijab they are good if they don't they aren't. You don't know anything!!!
You cant be a good muslim if you are not decent and have a cold heart. Be a decent and kind person and care for women and children and the elderly.
