  • I don't think so. From what I have read, it seems to be a very peaceful religion. I assume you are referring to the extremists who claim to be acting on behalf of islam. In that respect, I would say that extremists on any side of any issue can be a danger if they choose to close their mind to anything but their cause.
  • No. America's misunderstanding and/or incomprehension of Islam is a danger to society.
  • Ignorance and extremism are dangers to society, mainstream religions are not.
  • HELL NO !
  • no the media is
  • not all society just ours
  • Yes, in the same way Christianity is a danger to society (and im catholic!). Too many people hating others because of their religion and not much tolerance and understanding as their religion teaches.
  • Well if you want to get technical... Religion in general is a damper on society. But otherwise sweetheart... No, it's not. The taliban is a danger... Not Islam! They are two different things.
  • Don't blame a whole religious sect for what zealots do. Islam is no more a danger to society than any other religion. Ignorance, intolerance, and prejudice are much more dangerous.
  • No, just religion, unfortunately.
  • No, it's not.
  • It's the people who execute their ideas ,whether they are good or bad!Where religion comes here?
  • No. But radical fundamentalist Islam may be a danger to society. Just as radical fundamentalist Christianity may be a danger to society. And radical fundamentalist Judaism may be a danger to society. With love in Christ.
  • The fact that someone asked this question is proof that something might be wrong with them
  • Yes, but no more (or less) a danger to society than any other monotheistic religion. +5
  • no, only to those who believe in God and Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit> who are ONE.....and only then if they were to lose Faith.....

  • No more than Catholicism or any other religion.
  • if you mean fanatics in any religion, yes ,they all are a danger on all societies.
  • as much as any other religion is.
  • If you want the bottom line religions seem to be a danger to society. If you haven't seen it here's Jefferson's take on it. [Creeds] have been the bane and ruin of the Christian church, its own fatal invention, which, through so many ages, made of Christendom a slaughterhouse, and at this day divides it into castes of inextinguishable hatred to one another. -- Thomas Jefferson, letter to Thomas Whitmore, June 5, 1822, quoted from James A Haught, editor, 2000 Years of Disbelief On the dogmas of religion, as distinguished from moral principles, all mankind, from the beginning of the world to this day, have been quarreling, fighting, burning and torturing one another, for abstractions unintelligible to themselves and to all others, and absolutely beyond the comprehension of the human mind. -- Thomas Jefferson, letter to Archibald Carey, 1816 If you want to read more http://www.positiveatheism.com/hist/quotes/qframe.htm
  • ofcourse not!! read about Islam, meet real muslems,and read histroy and u will know that its a peacefull religion :)
  • No, a few terrorists who call themselves Muslim are a danger.
  • Only insofar as most religions are a danger to society. They all have their dangerous zealots. The Abrahamic traditions seem to be more prone to it, but you get that with anyone who thinks they possess truth (divinely revealed text) that needs to be exported to others. I can think of very few religions that do not have dangerous zealots, and they are not the large religions of the world.
  • I consider all religions a danger to society.
  • Yes it most certainly is - It's a danger to an immoral and socially sick society, because it will cleans it and bring humanity back to it. To understand this go back in history and see what scum the Arab nation was prior to Islam known as the 'time of ignorance' and how that changed and also see and find out what global contributions was made by them since. The rest as they say is History .....
  • In what sense can it be a danger on society?
  • well this is exactly what minor non-Muslim people think about Islam as a dangerous religion and that's because of lack of education. please read some books about something before you want to give an opinion. But if you want my opinion I should say not only Islam in not dangerous, but also its the best way to live a good life.
  • Only extremests as in all other religions!
  • The HATE is a danger on society. They are misleading the world that Muslims are terrorists. Unfortunately, this creates so much hate which empowers terrorism and fighting between religions ~ bottom line Islam and Muslims are no dangers on society.
  • The narrow mind found everywhere is the real danger to society.
  • Yes, Islam is a dangerous on the Evil society. Yes, Islam is a dangerous on the unjust society. Yes, Islam is a dangerous on the corrupt society. Yes, Islam is a dangerous on the Morally-bankrupt society. Yes, Islam is a dangerous on the society that protects and supports criminals and war criminals.

  • Name another religion that starts mass riots when you draw a picture of there so called prophet. Name another religion that starts protests over our british soldiers who fought with there lives for our country and name another religion that praises a pedophile prophet who spreads hate through out the world and treats women like slaves. This is 2009 and people expect to be treated with respect, not looked down upon by these people. Is islam a danger? hell yes it's a danger and it should we outlawed.
  • Dude... Islam means Peace, I Don't know how in the hell Peace would be a danger on society. If anything, extremists Christians are probably more of a danger. Why do you so many people look down on Muslims? Cause Bush said so?
  • Everyone had young wives in the 15th century but this is not the 15th century and yet you people still do it so your kind has not evolved. Muhammad is part of islam, muslims worship islam so you worship muhammed wherever you like it or not. I don't think you even know about islam do you? I bet you haven't even read the qua'ran and your one of the people who believes that islam is the religion of peace. I can tell in the way you talk that you don't know what your talking about and your in denial about the facts. You say you love allah yet you fear him? what kind of crap is that? tell me, have you seen this so called allah? what made you convert and betray your country to join this religion of hate? I want to know.
  • All fundamentalists, all of those whose world view is based around putting others down or around asserting that others have not been as 'faithful' to God as those holding the views are, are IMO, dangerous. Islam is no more dangerous, per se, than any other religion but those whose extremism requires that they see no good in others who disagree with them are a danger in any faith.
  • im not sure why people say that. Its a religion, like every other religion, it has peaceful people and extreme, crazy people. Its not different than anything else. so no, it has no danger on society
  • Yes, pure Islam is a danger to all those who practice or promote immorality and injustice in society.
  • Islam is a tolerable and merciful religion.It turns to violence when u violate its laws.You may get burnt when u play with fire.
  • When you have any society or religion that wants to dominate the world there is a problem....so yes.
  • What do u think? What do u have in mind?
  • No. Islam can not be danger on society because it finishes the difference between poor and rich. Islam makes a man honest in every thig
  • I hear all the time, "Only the extremists are dangerous, Islam is a religion of peace" Where then are all of the peaceful moderate Muslims. Where were all of the Imams on TV after 9/11 saying they do not condone such behavior. When do you ever see a Muslim leader hold a press conference denouncing Bin Laden, the Hamas, or any other Muslim terrorist organization? You never will because they really do support the radicals or they are afraid of them. Either way Islam is a danger to all societies. I won't even get into how repressive their religion is to women and the whole Sharia law thing.
  • It's a danger to it's self.Read what fury and anger God has for his enemies in Isaiah 63.
  • Radical Islamists are.
  • One may say so yes. The Quran contains at least 109 verses that call Muslims to war with nonbelievers. Some are quite graphic. It's hard to stop what going on today as moderate muslims want to live peacefullty ignoring ome parts of the violent qu'ranic verses but other muslims, the extremists want to carry out what their god tells them. Islam can be dangerous. Many violent qu'ranic verses are mostly open-ended, meaning that the historical context is not embedded within the surrounding text (as are nearly all of the old testament verses of violence). They are part of the eternal, unchanging word of the allah god, and just as relevant or subjective as anything else in the Qur'an. Other than the fact that Muslims haven't killed every non-Muslim under their domain, there is very little else that they can point to as proof that theirs is a peaceful, tolerant religion.
  • Oh, yes. It's the greatest danger faced by Western Civilisation, or Eastern either, for that matter. It is the ultimate form of Theocracy. The very word means SUBMISSION. Submission, that is, to the Will of God, but only as quoted by self-appointed fanatic religious zealots who "interpret" the "word of God" by their own lights. . I am aware that there are calm, peaceful, inoffensive Moslems. I'd like to say that I pity them for the face that the Jihadist extremists have put upon them. But I cannot. If they were serious in their peaceful intent, they would root out the Jihadists and expose them. Instead they turn a blind eye. I tgherefore hold every Moslem on the planet accountable for every act of Jihadist violence. . By Koranic definition, EVERY Moslem is a Jihadist, devoted to total world domination by Islam. The aggressive militants have the goal of infiltrating every society in the West and gradually forcing acceptance of Islamic principles. They are succeeding. British courts have already accepted elements of Sharia law as superseding English Law. . What greater danger can there be?
  • everything can be a danger to society. everything can be beneficial to society. it's how the garden is tended - making flowers or weeds.
  • The danger isn't the religion, its the radical, kooky m/f following it.
  • No not at all. It's the illiterate mullahs who are dangerous to the society. Also the arm dealers who sell arms to these mullahs.
  • I believe it is a danger on society, (well our society) as most of it's values are at loggerheads with our own values. Why do Muslims resort to violence? Is is because they have no conviction in their arguments that their way of life is best, so they have to try and bully others into thinking like them? I know this is not a Politically Correct view, but I (along with most people on this website) was lucky enough to be born into a free society, where people are free to have their own opinions, lead their own way of life, believe what they want to believe. This is incompatible with Islam. Don't get me wrong Western Society has many flaws, but when you compare any western country with say: Saudi Arabia, Libya, Somalia, Pakistan - which would you rather live in? which country has greater freedom of expression etc. These Islmaic societies have injustice and unfairness within them to a far greater extent then we do in the West. Can you imagine, a West where Islam is dominant? Would women be able to vote, work, have a life outside the home? Would any of us be free to believe what we liken? Would we be free to listen to music? Would we be free to go to a match on Saturday afternoon? Would we be free to have a drink and some laughs with our friends? Would we be free to wear what we like? Would we be free to think what we like? Would we be free to eat what we like? The answer to all these questions is NO, that is why i believe Islam is a danger in our society.
  • Yes. Islam has been used to control populations for years and it is this misuse of Islam that is causing the problem. It truly is the opiate of the people.
  • What do you think? . http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/us_westernized_woman_assault
  • I believe very strongly "YES"! They are on a quest for world domination and will do what ever it takes to achieve their goals. If we do not somehow put a stop to it Hitlers reigm will seem like a walk in the park by comparison. The Qua'ran teaches that they are to try and convert everyone, if a person soays no, then they are to be killed... This applies to everyone who is not already Muslim, so that is about 6 Billion people, 1000 times Hitlers terror.
  • Hell ya
  • no. terrorism is.
  • Of corse not I just whant toknow if Islam to something to you ! I think some peapole "muslims" use islam to cover dirty work but that didn't mean at any way to be danger !
  • If they continue killing innocent people, then yes
  • Only as much as Hinduism, Buddhism, Judaism, and Christianity.
  • terrorists have no religion
  • Denying the dangers inherent in one's own religion is a danger to society.
  • Nidal Hasan is an American-born Arab, a US citizen, and a soldier. He's been fomenting violence for months if not years. And we still think there is something wrong with racial profiling.
  • Just like any other super-religion trying to take over the world.
  • It's a danger even to Arab societies.
