I guess if anyone would have experience with unsophisticated people...

I thought the Nation of Islam isn't really "Islam"???
Also, when you enforce a law that punishes apostasy with death... Chances are you aren't going to have too much renunciation...
Instead you will have a lot of bacon eating and beer drinking "Muslims" in the West.
Christianity is the largest religion in the world for a reason.
I think you jealous.Matthew 6:19-21: "Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and vermin destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. 20 But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also."

I agree with this post. American Muslims are largely good, hard working citizens. The issue of Muslims in the West isn't an American thing but rather a European problem....see Belgium, Sweden, Norway, France, England. In places where there is a sizable extremist contingency then it becomes the responsibility of the peaceful Muslims to rebuke their radical co-religionists, especially when there are public demonstrations. Until that day occurs, the hate will grow and multiply and be completely polarized as "us vs them" if no moderates stand up and make themselves present.

It's probably better not to overly concern yourself with the level of sophistication that a comedian has in terms of politics and religion.
They're professional jimmie rustlers!
It's a problem when people watch comedy and mistake it for serious business. Maher is not a journalist or political analyst. His show may feature subject matter experts like politicians, professors, authors, scientists...But people forget and I don't know why: He's a comedian.EX IGNORANTIA AD SAPIENTIAM

Muslims should take this post to heart. It might not be fair or whatever but it is what it is. Every minority/ethnic group in the United States has had to overcome obstacles to be accepted and not demonized. The best way to do this is to learn the culture and work within the rules and accepted practices. When I read posts from a lot of Muslim on these forums it seems they have a completely different attitude and strategy for dealing with things and engaging in arguments. They however, do not work with Americans and it ends up making them look worse IMO. Muslims are not under any obligation to try and change attitudes concerning them but if they want to not be demonized so much then they will have to engage the majority on their terms and try and fit in a little bit without changing their identity.
People are saying these things and agreeing with the poster above for a reason.
Reza may have been making some good points but the way he bounced around and was dripping with arrogance and ridicule distracted greatly from his message. This might work with normal political discussions but when you are an intellectual like Reza is suppose to be you have to keep the childish insults and personal attacks out of it. People are going to have a difficult enough time understanding his points and breaking down his arguments to have to deal with the emotional name calling and you are so stupid attitude.
This. Nothing Bill Maher says should be taken seriously. He may make some good points in a funny way but most of it is a caricature of reality.

I think it goes back much further than that.

Muslims were hijacking boats before planes even existed.Matthew 6:19-21: "Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and vermin destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. 20 But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal.

Whenever people bring up examples about muslim women being treated badly, they always bring up different things from different places, like ****lia has an FGM problem but Saudi Arabia, Syria, Pakistan etc do not. Saudi Arabia don't let women drive, but every other muslim country does. Afghanistan lacks female education but look at Algeria, more women have better jobs and even in Saudi Arabia there are much more women in higher education than men. Each muslim country seems to have a separate problem.
