Hello, I'm fourteen years old and I am from America and I don't really have a religion, however I wouldn't exactly call myself an athiest either. 

But I would like to ask this question: Why did Muslims cause 9/11?

Is it because NYC has a large Jewish population?

Exactly why do Muslims hate Jews so much?

Does the religion of Islam teach to kill others that do not follow the religion? 

I also heard that if a Muslim converts to another religion then they must be killed.

Please explain this, thank you. 

Hi Waffle,

Welcome to the forum.

I think that the answer is simple to all your questions: you should make the difference between Islam and Muslims. Muslims are mankind, making mistakes, sinning, ... and Islam is a religion, a Faith, that you cannot summarize only in the bad things you see from Muslims.

Actually, and I am sorry for the Muslims, what I see is that there are not much "real Muslims" in this world. For instance, Osama Ben Laden cannot be defined a Muslim, because he is using the name of Allah to kill people, and that's something he is doing himself, it's not God's commandement. 

I don't know exactly why Ben Laden chose New York to start his terrorist actions, most probably because it was the Business Center of USA and actually, from the whole world. I think he is the only one who can answer this.

Regarding the situation with the Jews, really, I think it's the same, it's a cultural thing from the Muslims, but it's not coming from the religion. The "hate" between Jews and Muslims is a human matter.
