Re: Does Islam teach intolerance?
do you care for your brother or kin more than a random stranger on the street? yes.
should the stranger take that as an insult? no.
and this really is about being a muslim, if you are not following islam properly than you will not give a crap about anyone. alot of people claiming to be muslims dont give rat for other muslims. recent muslim history unfortunately you will find huge examples of muslims not caring for each other let alone non muslims.

^
that is true. If I reject Quranic verses just because my tiny brain does not understand them, then I am misguided. Where did the INTOLERENCE come from in that statement?
Any sane muslim who will read that statement knows that rejecting Quran is rejecting faith hence misguided.
Re: Does Islam teach intolerance?
Do Muslims respect/ value other Muslims more than non-Muslims?
To reply to this initial specific question...
Have you SEEN the way desis treat other desis? They treat 'em like the scum beneath their shoes. Take a look around you and what goes on in this website alone. And this is the most educated group of Pakistanis I've seen btw. You can imagine how much more horrible it gets in reality.
The back-biting, the rumors, the gaalis (insults), the harassment, etc etc. We can't even treat our own muslim women with any respect, nor do we allow them to live the lives they want.
But we kiss non-desi behinds, specifically non-muslim behinds.
I think if anything, muslims treat non-muslims better than they treat their own muslim brethren.

^ what desis do and do not do is no way any indication of what Islam tells and does not tell us to do....
Re: Does Islam teach intolerance?
Yeah! Like these Arrabobs calling Pak people Rafeek and Miskeen.
