<poster snipped his OP and reply>
I don't have a sister, but yes I wouldn't have a problem with it and
neither would my parents. My father was born a Christian, and
converted to Islam after he met my mother. I don't see what the big
issue is here. The Qur'an does not consider Jews or Christians to be
kaffirs (and even if it did I wouldn't care because I wouldn't let a
book get in the way of us). And no, I am not stalking her, don't make
assumptions about me when you haven't ever even met me.
You call me a barbarian, and yet you are the one using crude language,
accusing me when you probably have never opened the Qur'an, much less
read one, and you are the one assuming I am a bad person just because
of the religion that my parents bestowed on me. In reality, Islam,
Christianity and Judaism aren't that different.
You said it.
Racism, biases and stereotypes get us nowhere. I have no idea why I'm
writing this. You won't listen to me, but then again I'm not listening
to you, so I guess it's fine.
I came here looking for reassurance that not everybody hates everyone
else...I guess it's stupid to look to the Internet for open-minded
people.
It's a tough call looking for sensible debate in Usenet, but if it's
thinkers you want, you'll find them in alt.atheism. No disrespect to
you as a person, but there's a reason for that. Have a think about it
if your mind is that open. Oh! and I have read the Q'ran, have you
read Satanic Verses?
On a more personal level, I am happy for you and am glad you have
found love. It shouldn't matter what anybody else thinks if you have.
I wish you both enlightenment.
