All-American Muslims Debate: How Do You Feel About Muslims Living in the US?

[luvmemaisy]

I don't think I will ever understand how the actions of a couple of men who commit a disgusting crime against humanity will result in the awful generalisation of all people of the Islamic faith.

[shahidur1992]

the woman in the blue said a lot of rubbish against Prophet muhammad alayhis salam. first of all prophet Muhammad was not a murder and was not a paedophile these are false allegations.clearly she has been deluded and has probably has not got the full story .here are some links for the truth: Prophet Muhammad's (s) Marriage to Aisha (ra) - Yusuf Estes : and the second link about the alegged murder : Biography of prophet muhammad(pbuh) part 1/13

[TheHuwaidah]

WHERE CAN I FIND TO SEE THIS DEBATE!!!!!

[peaceworldlifes]

america people are problem disunderstand or dont know anything about islam, it fault america zionist ruin dirty against islam

[undercoverdx3]

@ MountAnalogue where is your proof?

[424292ksa]

truth be told!!!

Who's to say they're Americans? Indians are Americans American settlers, so everyone comes to it

[MsChameleonX]

i am not a religious (of man) person. I am a spiritual (of God) person. I don't feel that a church or religion is the only way to God (or whatever you call it). With that said, I find it appalling what that lady said about Islam.The most horrific attrocities in the world have been committed in the name of one religion or another and chrisitanity is at the forefront of that..look at brutality of slavery. Owners used religion to validate being slave masters. so are christian unamerican too?

[DJSarrazin]

@MsChameleonX

Well, look at brutality of slavery... in South-Sudan and Darfur.

Look what muslims themselves say about slavery.

[Firko100]

Please study the last lecture of Prophet Muhammad (PBU) who advised Al-Musolman (Muslim) to avoid EXTREMISM. Always reject any Cleric/Mullah who suggests violence. Suicide bombing is haram (illegal) in Islam. Reject Islami parties because they create divisions within Muslim community. You do not need any cleric or Mullah. Only you need QURAN and lead your life accordingly. When you find any cleric/Mullah insisting violence against any people, catch him and beat him by your own shoes.

[sofyans1234]

SYARIAH LAW is misunderstood by most American

ALQURAN 4:59

O you who believe! Obey GOD and obey the Prophet (Muhammad) and those  in authority from among you

Pay attention to THOSE IN AUTHORITY FROM AMONG YOU, this means all American must obey sincerely the President of USA and obey sincerely US Constitution.

If a muslim disobey the President of USA; he disobey SYARIAH LAW. If a muslim disobey US Constitution; he disobey SYARIAH LAW.

[aliens301]

@sofyans1234 bro im ex muslim..dont compare sharia and constitution of america..u dont know anything about sharia law..why u hate christian and jews,,they dont bother you..i have so many friends are still remain muslim and some become christian and athiest when they talked about religion they are mad but they are the one started the debate..i tell u boy the truth god,allah ,angels ,demons,jehovah,elohim are bad Et/entities..this is the problem cuz u dont accept the truth..wake up

[MountAnalogue]

hint:

there's no god! it doesnt matter if you're christian, muslim or jew! there is NO God!

[CurryBiskit]

Muslims and Terrorists are two different words. They are not interchangeable. Ignorance is what is causing people to fear a religion when they should be fearing a certain group instead.

[yudiweb]

where the rest of this video?

[MoonlightPlaylist]

See, I can't take them seriously, these people, as good of people they seem, are 100% americanized muslims. On 9/11 Muslim run countries in the middle east were burning our flags and handing out candy. THese people don't represent the vast majority of Muslims, they are a tiny figure. I have no problem with these people, but don;t try and tell me these are what most muslims around the world are like.

[Toxiliciousxbish]

i tried fasting for three days.. n said no more cause my mood started going crazy.. XD n imma christian

[100iiimad]

@Toxiliciousxbish. should have to worries. and find the truth.

Johan chapter 8,V 32

And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free

[FallasDeOrigen1]

OK... To every Christian: Have you ever heard of... let's say... THE INQUISITION or the KKK???? Start reading HISTORY please!!!!

[Toxiliciousxbish]

@FallasDeOrigen1 kukluxklan aren't true christians..they just used the label to disguise their devious heinous deeds..

[NadaFarag]

Shariah Law does not take away freedom, and it's not meant to be imposed politically in a nation where Muslims are only a minority. This woman is obviously a bigoted idiot but it's sad to see the Muslims also have no clue about it. Praying 5 times a day is part of Shariah Law, so's wearing the hijab or fasting. It's more of a guide for your personal life, not something that's imposed on unwilling people.

[tadpoleposition]

@NadaFarag Shari'ah Law gives you freedom from hell-fire and security and peace in Jannah. La Ilaha Il Allah!

[jihadifanclub]

@NadaFarag Actuallythe Shariah is imposed on people that don't want it. If you study the history of Islam the prophet (pbuh) and the companions (ra) you will see that Islam spread by first establishing the Shariah and then people converted 2ndly.

[Mujawolf]

Sigh. I don't know whats more retarded. Sterotypes or the people who follow them like the Ignorant Lady in the video in the crowd.

[blueexpress1]

I am a CHRISTIAN and I am absolutely DISGUSTED with those of my OWN religion for saying such ignorant things and painting all arabs with the same brush! you are racist BIGOTS! SHAME ON YOU!!!! If ISLAM was such a horrible religion...why is it MILLIONS of AMERICANS alone have converted to ISLAM? Wow must really be such a horrible religion. TO ALL THE MUSLIMS OUT THERE STAY TRUE TO GOD AND TO THE REST OF YOU YOUR DAY OF JUDGEMENT WILL SOON COME.

[GrayWulf316]

@blueexpress1 you are not a Christian and Islam is a Cult of liars and Anti-Christs 1st John 2:22 Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.

How easy we forget just a few years ago a Jewish kid was kidnapped by Muslim boys they carved a Star of David in his back with a knife while reading the Koran to him ,when they were arrested thousands of Muslims protested for their release from Jail ! in dearborn MI!

[tadpoleposition]

@GrayWulf316 1 John 2:22, who wrote it, when and where was it written, and how many people wrote it? Fundamental questions without straight forward answers. Your fallacious appealing to pity argument belongs in the toilet. The devil plays off of human emotions and feelings. Maintain some sound arguments and avoid fallacious ones in future comments.

[Toxiliciousxbish]

@GrayWulf316 those muslim boys that committed such heinous acts of torture were just schizophrenic lunatics taking the scripts of their holy book out of context..more like twisting to their own sick beliefs..these baka's should be harshly reprimanded but not the general folks out there..

[jepensedoncjesuisla]

You CAN'T blame that whole community for the actions of some people who pretend to act in the name of islam! That is not AT ALL being a "good" American. I feel like history didn't taught us anything, we're just going back in time.

We should know to never generalize! At least in Europe the majority knows that!

[ang3lpie]

Where can I watch the full episode?

[lagunaflyguy]

The teaching and practice of Islam, along with all it's followers should be banned from America. It is the height of folly to allow Muslims to flourish in this nation. By doing so it is akin to allowing a rabid dog in your house, or a pedophile to watch your children. This so called religion which preaches death and violence needs to be labeled for what it is, a terroist organization. It needs to be eradicated from our nation ASAP!

[fppg1227]

Where I can see this full episode?

[alydamarte]

i agree with this lady 100% these are not real muslims, according to the Quran and hadiths killing people outside the faith (islam) is prescribed by allah (god). the Quran says if you dont have battle wounds on yourself before the day of judgement you are not one of us (Muslim) and you will be thrown in hell. like the suicide bombers are doing exactly what islam reaches. if you kill other and in the process kill yourself you are considered a martyr and will receive 72 virgins in paradise.

[iamslknick78]

@alydamarte Where did you get your theology doctorate?

[ThePise007]

@alydamarte You got it all wrong.I'm a Muslim and I know my religion.The stuff you said;i dont think any religion has anything like that.Allah does not say you have to kill people.Killing is one of the biggest sins actually,and no one has to have battle wounds to go to heaven.and NO ONE gets 72 virgins in heaven for killing themself and others.Where did you get this stuff from?terrorists are using Islam as a label for terrorism.every religion has terrorists,but only the 'muslim' ones are noticed

[zYnsy21]

9/11 again?

9/11 was caused by the illuminati's

[micareah]

The wisdom of this lady is narrow.. >_< She's not thinking at all.. What is the difference of a Constitutional Law and a Religious Law? Very simple!!!

Religious Law is a Law of GOD! I repeat! A LAW THAT MADE BY GOD!.. And the Constitutional Law is a Law of HUMAN!. A LAW THAT MADE BY US (HUMANS)!.

God bless to this lady.. :P

[52Bonjour]

Anderson fails to respond to the real issue. For a guy that is a serious journalist, one would think that he would present the real issue, that is, no one of the Muslim faith has stood up as a GROUP and condemned 911. They appeal to emotion and claim they are American instead of dealing with the real issue. Always the victim, never accepting responsibility for their actions. We, as Americans, are all considered infidels.

[iamslknick78]

@52Bonjour For who's actions should they be taking responsibility? If you're a Christian, should you be taking responsibility for the Klan?

[00ismaeL001]

Muhammad said that you cannot be loyal to a country that is not Islamic. Under Islam loyalty is too Allah first and foremost over country, town, state, or government.

[00ismaeL001]

uh...Why do people like Anderson bring up Timothy McVeigh....MCVEIGH WAS AN ATHIEST AGNOSTIC.

McVeigh said that "Science is my religion" so don't even try to bring McVeigh to try to counter the argument.

McVeigh....was AN ATHEIST and that was in an interview with CBS news.

[iamslknick78]

@00ismaeL001 How about the Klan?

[breakingthisdown]

LOL, cuz hundreds of thousands of innocent people have never died in the name of the Christian God. I wonder if this lady got beat up after the show.

[maptlbh]

@breakingthisdown Really? 100's of 1000's have NEVER died in the name of a christian god? Well, under what god rules usa and how many people have they killed and what about the genocide that's going on the middle east? Food for thought-- that's all :)

[iamslknick78]

@maptlbh You should probably learn some history.

[snakedemon11]

@maptlbh yes, and how many people have died in the name of atheism? what will happen if usa is ruled under a "science god" like sci-fi horror movies and books warn about? food for thought there too.

[sailat]

@maptlbh That's where you're confusing culture with religion. Save for Egypt, countries that have the highest % of muslims aren't even from the Middle East. Do you hear such things from say, Indonesia. If you want to know abt Islam I'd say the best source would be: the Qur'an + the Sunnah.Why do you think reverts to Islam from the West take too keenly to their religion. Don't judge Islam from muslims that you see and generalize your opinion abt the same.Islam should b/w the person and Allah.

[Nick24BornThisWay]

I think that the Muslims who do wrong in the name of Allah are wrong. It gives people an impression that all Muslims are bad people.

One can be a good Muslim and a good American. The man in this clip is a federal agent. How could one say that the man is not a good American? It doesn't matter what religion a person is, all that matters is that the person's heart is pure and does good deeds.

[cooljool1]

@Nick24BornThisWay Just the other day, my heart helped a little old lady cross the street.

[TreeSmoke1999]

@Nick24BornThisWay Whats the penalty for apostasy in Islam?

[orionsbow2012]

@TreeSmoke1999 The penalty for leaving Islam is death, plain and simple.

[Toxiliciousxbish]

@TreeSmoke1999 decapitation i think

[mrzakariye10]

@Nick24BornThisWay thank you

[DJSarrazin]

@Nick24BornThisWay

I just wonder those 70% Egyptians who voted for Islamists, are they bad or good muslims?

[lesleyburt]

So if I am to believe this woman, you can't be a good American and be a Muslim? So are only white Christian people capable of being good Americans? She sounds very ignorant.

[anenigmainme]

thank you for taking on this topic and educating the public Anderson. Much respected <3 

[26karatgold]

I am a Muslim ,and I am a Gay,which these two cant Combine together. but I feel I am welcomed in America more than being welcomed in my Own country! add to that I am more accepted by other American people more than being accepted by Muslims American people.

[pens26]

I get heart palpitations when walking through the Arab occupied areas near the Western Wall in Jerusalem. These peoples life goal is to cause harm to the world. Be it Jews, America , or the world at large...frightening....

[spookyshiit]

first hehe

[IkaiI]

I trust Anderson to actually make this about the issue and not simply ratings.

[Refs09]

I wish that woman in the sweater/shirt combo would pick up a history book. The Crusades and Inquisition were all done in the name of "god." Let's not forget England, Spain, and France's recent colonizing past. We killed millions of Americans all in the name of god and trying to Christianize them since we didn't understand their customs/religions. Hell, even the Oklahoma City bombing was done in the name of god. People always use god to justify their heinous actions.

[BlackKingX]

On my home page this video was just labeled as "All-American Muslims Debate: How Do You Feel About Muslims Living". I was interested in seeing how people replied to that question, a little disappointed that the question wasn't as racey as that. Oh well.

[Stingerbillion]

People have no right whatsoever to diss Muslims when they don't have all the facts. It would be unwise for me to say ALL Republicans are terrorists just because there were some on right-wing that committed terrorist activity.

I wish people would get educated instead of staying igornant. Thanks Anderson for posting!

[jaredknockout91]

Muslims are as good as Americans as you and I!

[deebvee]

People need to be more eduacted about other poeple's religions. I am very happy that Anderson addresses this issue.

[cameron944]

«THEIR GOD ALLAH » lol «Allah » mean GOD in Arabic....«THEIR GOD» is GOD....lollllll like please... their is so many way to say «GOD » in so many language .......please tell the women to have some education and stop being so dumb..... FYI i'm Catholic

[Courser01]

Wow, I'm kind of shocked that so many people see muslims as 'other' in our society. I go to comm. college alongside muslims, ride the bus, train, shop... muslims are part of my daily life and I have no fear of or antipathy for them. I actually enjoy and embrace living in a multicultural society
