People who would suggest we do so are ignorant and intolerant.Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00642862372348186465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3221950906880399257.post-85344335537885123752010-02-13T16:46:34.946-08:002010-02-13T16:46:34.946-08:00Tammi, you said it well.

Now that should get me a blast from a lot of people but....history is full of Christian people who seem to think god is on their side and that gives them license to do bad things to others (on whose side god is not). Western history is full of Christians doing really bad stuff to others in the name of god. We can start with the crusades, move through the pogroms, see the Inquisitions, look at Ireland and Serbia and it continues today. Lots of people do bad things in the name of god so let’s not put all the blame on the Muslims, who also do bad things in the name of god. Maybe god should be more selective on who s/he choses to be his/her people.Bob n' Jeannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13371535271954699075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3221950906880399257.post-39652467844354303762010-02-13T08:13:37.015-08:002010-02-13T08:13:37.015-08:00Thank you for this post!

I have many muslim friends. Just because some muslims do a bad thing does not mean that all muslims are bad people. Just like you said, just because someone is christian doesn't mean they're going to go kill an abortion doc. <br /><br /><br />I think dottie missed the entire point of this post. It is small minded to think that we should boycott an entire group of people because of a few of their members.<br /><br />"because you chose one doesn't mean the other is wrong. Religion preaches tolerance and its members somehow translate that to intolerance in the name of their religion" <br /><br />Um, I love that quote. Can I hug you? Seriously.<br /><br />No religion is perfect. No religion is made up entirely of good or bad people. It would be foolish to condone an entire religion because of what they call their god.Mollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15881590483174001768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3221950906880399257.post-36702662081434119082010-02-12T18:26:34.733-08:002010-02-12T18:26:34.733-08:00The Muslim stamp was first put out in 2001 and cel...The Muslim stamp was first put out in 2001 and celebrates 2 Muslim holidays and is re-issued<br />once a year to commerate the Islamic holidays Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha.<br />No, I am not a Muslim-far from it but I did look it up on Snopes.com to see what they said.<br />I am glad you made us aware of it. I agree, we SHOULD NOT purchase any of them. I can't believe we sell them.<br /><br />I am a mother of 6 and enjoy reading all the adventures of your family. Wish I were young enough to adopt like you did I knew nothing about DS children and how they are treated in their countries until I came across yours and other blogs. I look forward to reading how Ben and Sophia are doing.dottiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00154198697379178065noreply@blogger.com
