Terrorist V Terrorism

You live in the US right? If I came there and starting demanding this and that, wouldnt you get upset?

How often do you get upset? Is airing one's positive opinion openly not a long earned BRITISH tradition? Are you the only gardian of England? The only person vested with a VOTE?

In the eyes of the English Law; anyone and everyone, on Her majesty's Voters Rolls holds full rights (without any prejudice) to propose, ask for and even demand anything, within the Law, that they deem to be beneficial for the public at large.

Kindly, refer to your country's law before flashing your Britishness, which, if you study closely, is a shade of racistic tendency.

Salams_wife,

If the UK doesn't want to teach about Islam in public schools than that is its right.  I just don't think it is fair to make things difficult for the Islamic schools where muslim parents prefer to send their kids so they will get that education

You are again missing the point.The UK does teach Islam in its schools. And urdu is being introduced into the curriculam for all students, just as spanish is taught in the US schools.

We are not 'pushing all religion away instead of embracing it and making it more open.'

 Yet what harm is there in encouraging more teachers of different faiths in schools instead of making them outsiders? 

I never suggested anything different

Whisper,

In the eyes of the English Law; anyone and everyone, on Her majesty's Voters Rolls holds full rights (without any prejudice) to propose, ask for and even demand anything, within the Law, that they deem to be beneficial for the public at large.

I have not suggested anything different.  As usual Whisper you twist anything I say. And you paint a bad picture all the time about Britain, either regarding the past or present. Racism in the UK is not as rife as you try to suggest. And surely racism is only present when the true picture is not revealed on any side. It is not something that is just inside a person. It develops over time. I dont even suggest that all asians are bad, and you are wrong to suggest my husband is from a dodgy group. You dont know him. You also dont know me .

It is my intention everytime to build not destroy. And if I need to point out some errors that people post then I can do. My views are never biased, but I will stand firm if the facts presented are not true.

Salams_wife,

I no longer outwardly show myself as a muslim because I dont agree with what many muslims do, which then brings disrespect on Islam. I have previously mentioned the London tube bombings and the siege on the Belsan school by extremists.  At the time these things happened I was perfectly happy and at ease to wear the hijab. I lived and worked in a predominantly asian community. Some accepted me some didnt. I found that the vast majority of older asian women that didnt intergrate into society, struggled with me being muslim. Most young muslims were fine that I had accepted Islam. Most British people in the city were also fine. Amusingly one black man said that God didnt want a white woman to be a muslim

I am by no means a weak woman. It is not this that forced me to remove the hijab. The hatred and racism that all people feel comes from ignorance. On both sides of the fence. Many British face  racism today from others because they are the wrong colour or race or religion. It will take time for  everyone to change. Everyones situation is different and cannot be bundled into one bag. I have no one to defend me, so am not in a loving muslim family situation. I quietly accept that situation and do the best I can with the means I have. But this does not make me weak. If I had cared about what my family or friends thought then I wouldnt have become muslim would I? Strength comes from within, and is not always portrayed on the outside. I am ultimately trying to understand Islam and hopefully be a good muslim as well as being a nice person.
