Doha Debate - The Sunni-Shia Conflict & Image Of Islam 5/6

Participants At the Latest Doha Debate Have Strongly Defended Islam's Image After Repeated Accusations That It Dad Been Damaged By The Sunni-Shia Conflict In Iraq. In A Series Of Robust Exchanges, There Was Strong Disagreement About The Effects Of Violence Between Islam's Two Largest Denominations. Juan Cole, Professor Of History At The University Of Michigan, Said Recent Polls Showed That Americans Believed Islam Contained More Violent Extremists Than Other Religions And Sectarian Fighting Must Have Contributed To That impression. Opposing The Motion, Sayid Hassan Al Qazwini Said There Was "No Conflict Between Sunnis And Shias." Supporting Him, Dr Hisham Hellyer, Fellow Of The Oxford Centre For Islamic Studies And Director Of The Visionary Consultants Group, Rejected The Notion. "The West Has Been Critical Of Islam For A Thousand Years And Portrayed It As Violent - And That Has Nothing To Do With The Sunni-Shia Divide" he said.Participants At the Latest Doha Debate Have Strongly Defended Islam's Image After Repeated Accusations That It Dad Been Damaged By The Sunni-Shia Conflict In Iraq.

[catveezle]

why do westerners think islam is violent?

it is not just down to recent decades. it is the original futuh jihad conquests of early islam.

it is the repeated attempts to conquer europe.

most of all it is the examples of hate and intolerance that anyone can find in the koran, which breeds the supremacist arrogant mindset of islam.

it is the violence inherant in the minds of those who think of non-muslims as Kuffar...aping the intolerance of mohammed.

it is the ethnic cleansing of arabia etc etc!

in the west, only a few groups of "Born Again" Christians, Muslims, and Neo-Pagans=(mostly Wiccans), have retained any serious theological anchor in theyre lives.
