Oh, tell us more. Where are you going to school, what is your field, and what is the subject of your dissertation?

Do you really think a Survey Monkey online survey is the best way to gather data for a doctoral dissertation? Would your advisor approve?

Title: Islamophobia? Or Rational Fear?
Post by: ayghu84 on December 03, 2014, 11:03:52 AM: Hey Guys,

I need your help, Iâ€™m doctoral student conducting dissertation research. Can you PLEASE take 2-3 minutes to fill out a very brief survey (see link below) regarding your attitudes toward Muslims?

Your help is greatly appreciated!

Description of the study: Following the tragic events of 9/11 when Muslim terrorists attacked America, hate crimes against Muslims increased by 1700% (Federal Bureau of Investigation crime statistics, cited in Sheridan and Gillet, 2005). The media reported a substantial amount of discrimination toward individuals who identified with Islam (Byers & Jones, 2007). In addition to Muslims, other minorities and foreigners perceived to be Muslim faced intolerance, distrust, hostility, discrimination and racist violence following the events of 9/11 (Orhun, 2009). The terrorist attacks of 9/11 led to feelings of disdain against Islam and have had enduring consequences for Muslims such as violence, physical and verbal abuse, vandalism of Islamic institutions, institutionalized discrimination, and overt prejudice (Allen, 2010; Hall, 2004; Laird et al., 2007; Sway, 2005).

The phenomenon of contempt and antipathy toward Muslims is known as Islamophobia (Orhun, 2009). Islamophobia is defined as a fear of Islam that perpetuates prejudice and discrimination against Muslims that can, in turn, generate feelings of stigmatization, marginalization and rejection among Muslims (Allen, 2010; Bleich, 2011; Gottschalk & Greenberg, 2008; Orhun, 2009; Runnymede Trust, 1997). Islam has been associated with terrorism and has been regarded as a threatening religion that embraces violence (Allen, 2010). Consequently, Islam has triggered a generalized fear of Muslims among Americans (Ernst, 2013).

Let me know what you think!

Put that in your stupid survey.

99% of all unrest in the world today is from islam.

What else does anyone need to know?

Where the Muslims in this country live.

I can see the liberals using this as a excuse to start something very similar to the Nazis and the Jew thing.

I don't know if I would protect any Muslims if the government started collecting them but then, I might have already been on one of the government's other lists. The Nazis killed/fried almost as many other people as they did Jews.

That's probably the figures in Muslim countries, cause it's not here. I don't think this is a good study without the Muslim hate crimes data committed against Jews and Christians.

Yep, most anti-religion attacks are still directed towards Jews.

Of the 1,340 victims of an anti-religious hate crime:

62.4 percent were victims of an offenderâ€™s anti-Jewish bias.
11.6 percent were victims of an anti-Islamic bias.
7.5 percent were victims of a bias against groups of individuals of varying religions (anti-multiple religions, group).
6.4 percent were victims of an anti-Catholic bias.
2.6 percent were victims of an anti-Protestant bias.
0.9 percent were victims of an anti-Atheist/Agnostic bias.
8.6 percent were victims of a bias against other religions (anti-other religion).

I have no issue with Muslim people, except the ones that shout Allah Akbar and kill people. We have Muslim families in my town, they're just normal people. Where I work, we have all races and beliefs, and everyone gets along fine. That's the Midwest way.
