  WELL SPOKEN LUTHER KING! YOU'RE MORE OPEN-MINDED AND REASONABLE THAN THE WRITER (ANTWI-BOASIAKO, KWAKU)WHO'S INDIRECTLY INSULTING THE INTEGRITY OF MOSLEMS. DIRECTIVE FRM WAEC CONCERNING THE PHOTOGRAPH IS TO MAKE SURE THE EARS, FOREHEAD AND CHIN APPEARS. SO IF THAT IS THE CASE THEN WHY ARE THE GIRLS BEING FORCED TO TOTALLY REMOVE THEIR HIJAB. IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE. IT VERY SIMPLE, ASK THEM TO ADJUST IT FOR THE SPECIFIED AREAS TO SHOW.
  "I condemn such violent acts in the name of religion. They are babaric and have no place in modern society. But ppl must also be responsible. U know that something u are about to do will offend someone and could result to violence yet u go ahead to do it, makes u no different from the terrorists who do the violence. Discretion is very important in our lives as a ppl.

  "What do we see in Christianity today? Jesus is being taken as Almighty God instead of messenger."
  
  Does it means it is foisted on you? Does someone hold a knife to your head to believe it? What's your problem? If you believe in your God, it is your problem, but ALLOW someone else to believe what he wants to.
  
  Did you see Charlie Hebdo's Christmas cartoons depicting Mary's birth of Jesus Christ last December? No? Well, it passed unnoticed because no one made any noise. I don't think Jesus himself would be offended if he saw it, so Christians don't care. They will NOT take a gun or knife to defend him. The defense is in the head.
  
  Don't mix your religion with anyone else's because it is a very particular religion.

  There are people who are generic. They make generic responses and they expect generic answers. They live inside a box and they think people who don't fit into their box are weird. But I'll tell you what, generic people are the weird people. They are like genetically-manipulated plants growing inside a laboratory, like indistinguishable faces, like droids.

  “There should be no compulsion in religion. Surely, right has become distinct from wrong; so whosoever refuses to be led by those who transgress, and believes in Allah, has surely grasped a strong handle which knows no breaking. And Allah is All-Hearing, All-Knowing.” Holy Quran 2:257
  
  The recipe for perpetual ignorance is: Be satisfied with your opinions and content with your knowledge.

  What I am just trying to drive across is, where religions is there MUST be tolerance. No one should be forced to worship God or believe in anything when they don't want to. That is called freedom. And when people don't believe in something they don't have to subscribe to its precepts.
  
  Conclusion: If those who don't believe God criticize him or people who believe in God, it is their opinion. When these people criticize religions, or prophets, it is their opinion, too. Prophets cannot be greater than the God they professed to adore and worship.
  Finally, prophets who needed humans to fight for them must have problems.

  If western journalists would learn sense and stop provoking others under the cover of freedom of speech and also allow Muslims to follow their Mohammed, just like Catholics follow the Pope, Buddist follow their Budha, even a child knows there would be peace on this Earth.
  
  It is ok to condemn those who misinterpret the Koran, but absolutely WRONG to defame Mohammed.
  If you would ask me if I'm a Moslem, I would answer: No, I'm a Christian - precisely a Presbyterian but being a democratic christian, I believe that EVERYBODY has the freedom of religion and thatreligion must not be uncondionally be Christianity.

  Good one. There are so many contradiction verses in the bible but who are you to point them out. If you carefully read the bible, it was about Jews and Israel it has nothing to do with us in Ghana but you dare say it.
