Religion of Peace? Muslim thugs beat up infidel girls until they convert
lse.co.uk — Hundreds of girls are subject to intimidation, threats and beatings by Muslim men who take them out for dates before beginning a campaign of 'terrorism' until they convert to Islam. And they say some Muslims are being paid up to £5,000 for every person converted to Islam in parts of the country.

- guinness3, on 10/12/2007, -4/+10I thought muslims claim that they don't force people to convert.
- SeriouslyButNo, on 10/12/2007, -8/+8Real muslims do not do this sort of crap.

- rksprst, on 10/12/2007, -4/+8Not true, its actually one of the few religions where its members actively try to convert people (or kill them).
- tomcpp, on 10/12/2007, -3/+7@SeriouslyButNo : That's right
Quran 8:12 clearly states that people who don't convert should be beheaded. Not beaten up.

not necessarily

like in all religous texts, there are numerous interpretations.
recently found this great site. provides thorough analysis of both the bible and quran (mind you, I'm not picking sides. they're both retarded).
http://skepticsannotatedbible.com/index.htm
go to the front page of either book, and click on a theme. it will list all instances in the book where it appears. of course, there's just as much violence in the bible as there is in the quran (including numerous assertions that non-believers should be put to death).

since when is hearsay proof? - fro0ty, on 10/12/2007, -6/+5This is probably the biggest piece of bs iv ever read
- jcs_goog, on 10/12/2007, -3/+2Seems barbaric, uncivilized and against the teaching of Mohammed.
- tomcpp, on 10/12/2007, -2/+6Indeed people who refuse to convert should be beheaded according to mohamed, not beaten up ...

(lots of other verses and hadith are confirming this obviously)

Yet none of you posts any of the stories about gangs doing the same thing in the US.
Must be because this story has the tagline 'Muslim'.- tomcpp, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5Then why don't you post the link for that story here ? I get the impression you have "misplaced" that link.
- h00paj00, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5If it were up to me, gangs in the U.S. would be treated like terror cells. Air strikes in Compton, CA and Camden NJ. Shoot the Crips, Shoot the Bloods. ***** 'em.

maybe because individual stories don;t say anything about a group as a whole. they only say something about the people who were involved in the story. if you'd like to see articles about people committing violence against people of different beliefs, go ahead and do a google search. if you're having trouble thinking of search terms, try "abortion" and "firebomb."
@h00
so basically you would treat gangs as muslims supposedly treat infidels? great point.
