Regressive Straw Man
August 30, 2015 at 8:17 pm (This post was last modified: August 30, 2015 at 8:18 pm by Shuffle.)
I challenge you to find a single article, video, podcast, speech, or blog that includes these words in a similar form: "I believe that all muslims are responsible for the current Islamic extremist activity." I am really sick of the straw man that is so frequently vomited out by regressives, that I have decided to end it once and for all, at least on AF.

However, if you do find the quote I am looking for, then I will change my mind. It is now your turn to give your straw man a brain, or knock it down.

Thanks!

i did find what you are looking for but thanks to your post i did find what I was looking for. In another post i asked why the Muslims feel they need to defend themselves from America and this guy has at least some answers

so I have failed to find anything that says all Muslims are violent or bad but i did get a lot of clarification on the issue.

Again thank you.

That is a load of CRAP. The Quran tells you to kill all non muslims, the bible does not.

"Thou shall not suffer a witch to live" has been interpreted at times to apply to ALL women of other faiths.

Probably wouldn't take much effort to find more.
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

But Christians believe that Jesus came down to abolish that law, and Muslims believe that the law is still standing. Have you ever heard of Shria Law???
So... any answer to the OP?

Abolish or fulfill.

Depends on the stripe of scripture cherry picker you're dealing with.

Listen, no atheist will argue that the old testament is not terrible. It is, but to say it is as terrible or more terrible than the Quran is extremely foolish.

I think it is cute that you can say a single verse that may or may not mean something, and may or may not have been abolished. You would think that if Yahweh would really want to christians to kill all believers, he would put something so vague.

Anyway, do you have an answer to my OP or not!?

If you go with Christ/fulfill, I've got you up to killing 1/2 the people.
