Anyone can carry out good deeds without being religious, giving food to the homeless is minuscule effort on a global scale and the bigger picture. I've yet to see what religion has positively contributed on a worldwide level.
Again you're just showing disregard for anything I'm saying by assuming, once again, something about me personally. I'll share with you that I am half South Korean and "white", I am very much a minority, I have lived places where I was the only minority in my school. I am lucky now to live in a vastly multicultural and mostly open-minded city where no certain one belief is the norm.

Yes, but you said religion has a negative effect on the world, which is not true. You're right, anyone can carry out good deeds, but you disregard when people carry out good deeds in the name of religion, but seem quick to jump out all the negative deeds people do in the name of religion. Like I've stated before, everything you seem to "know" about Muslims you've heard from the media, which is why you have such a negative view towards Islam.
Yes, I was assuming, I apologize. However, as South Korean do you feel you face the same type of discrimination that a Muslim does? I know there are negative stereotypes associated with being Korean, but you rarely hear those. Most of the stereotypes you hear probably have to do with you being really good at video games, or really good at math. You probably do not get called a terrorist based on the color of your skin, or have to face extra security measures while boarding an airplane because of your name. You say you live in an open minded city now, so why don't you have a more open mind and try to see things from a religious person's point of view before calling them out on their beliefs?
