Religious lyrics ?

Oh, sorry. When you look at it from your point of view, it sounds better than mine theory. Mostly because I have no real experience and you have. 

I heard the word, gastarbeiter, right ? Gast as a guest and arbeit like work, er is er even in English. OK, it's not clash of religions, so it is agressive minority (terrorists) of bigger minority (muslims) ? It's like gypsies in my country. This is something I have experience. I'm not racist. I hate most of them because most of them I know are behaving bad. Nor I'm racist because I know few of them and one guy, gypsi guy can be considered as one of the best boys I've ever met. Hard working, punk loving (you can't expect people to be prog loving all the time). OK, he is man. And his sister ? She was my girl for two years then we finally broke up. But this was on village. I'm from 4th biggest city here in Czech Republic.

There are problems you know, our country is considered as racist hive by some, but that's not true. Truth is  ... blah blah, I can continue, but it's off topic.

Anyway, in my country, we have 0.1% muslims. Our goverment is banning them from building mosques. They have one for ten million country. Is this right ?

And when choosing between Israel and Arabic states, what would you choose ?

Bad theme, I'm stucked and I don't want to be labelled badly just because of my not knowing of facts, so take it easily please.

Every religious related thread will bring up issues as Christianism, celibacy, bigotry, fanaticism, etc But as Raff said, it's positive, people lately cares for few things, and having this number of responses, means people care about spiritual issues, something strange, because people tend to more superficial lately. For example, in my days in the university, elections were important, we had active participation, the discussions in the big patio were really interesting or we went to our old cafeteria, took a coffee and talked for hours about Philosophy, Theology, etc. Our elections sometimes took until 4 or 5 am counting votes and discussing one by one the conflictive votes, there was such a polarization between radical communists and all of us who were against this radical positions that almost 90% of the students voted. Last month I went to ask for a copy of my diploma, and I found it full of kids playing with frisbees, the place was full of fast food restaurants, vending machines everywhere, nobody cared about anything I went to visit the students federation from which I was Vice President (The first Democratic one after 30 years of Maoism) and the President who knew me because the old documents I signed and a photo of some of us stopping a strike not approved by the federation, This kid told me only 5% of the students voted.and that they cared more about the spring Festival than to talk about Philosophy or Theology. The universal spirit of the university was lost At least in this forum we keep the interest and you should be glad your thread has grown so much

Wise words indeed. I must say that even I care a lot. You know, here in old Europe there is starting to be big influence of Islam religion. Some people are getting worried, some people are joining far right organizations, some people don't mind at all. Most of them does nothing about it. 

I am trying to get info, to know about whole issue from different points of view. Not big problem in my country, muslim population forms 0.1% of all the people here, but in bigger countries, Sweden, Netherlands of France (and Germany as I heard), it's like clash between Christianity (which forms majority of population) and muslim minority.

Remember that it's just all that I've heard on internet. Your story is important. It proves something. What about this China square, Tiananmen. Article in local newspapers told story of one guy, who was doing survey amongs the people here. He asked if they know what has happened here twenty years ago. The mostly didn't knew and few of them knew, some young students. And they were scared by the question.

It must be really harsch to live under such ideals, for you, for them, for my progfather back in 1980's (even our country is considered as one of the better places, but still), he couldn't go to university because of he was wearing jeans and beard at the high school final exams.
