I watched "30 Days" episode last night about a Christian guy living with a Muslim family for 30 days. There were some good points that each side made about personal and group responsibility.

One point the Muslims made was why should they apologize for the actions of fringe lunatic terrorists who do not represent them any more than a Christian should apologize for the actions of a fringe lunatic that bombs an abortion clinic?

The Christian guy countered with apologizing for the same thing. Later in the episode he was defending Muslims as not all being terrorists by citing Timothy McVeigh as a terrorist who wasn't a Muslim. (all terrorists are Muslim ≠ all Muslims are terrorists)

I admit it put a face to the huge sweeping generalization: Muslim.
