Something that you said is being said in mass apparently. I just went through the first 10 google pages of "All Muslims are terrorists" and every single page was exactly what I said, people debunking that claim. However I don't think it can really be called debunking if nobody is actually saying it.
Just requoting before you get too off track. You said how you'd have to be willfully ignorant to miss this. So it should be easy to come up with. Instead I think you need to admit that this argument is a strawman.
Sorry to take so long to get back to you. I had a busy weekend.
I took a few minutes this morning before I came to work to look for examples, and though I came across a couple of rants and some truly outrageous posts that support my contention that it's not true that no one EVER says that, it wasn't enough to justify my saying you would have to be willfully ignorant to miss it, I withdraw my assertion and apologize for my tone.
I often engage with fundamentalist conservative Christian posters elsewhere and apparently I gained an exaggerated sense of how frequent that sort of statement is on the internet.
Apparently 'not all Muslims are terrorists' is the kind of thing people throw out when someone seems to be over-generalizing, like 'not all cops are crooked' or 'not all black people are criminals'. The person to whom they're responding may have said something to that effect, but most of the time they will not have literally said 'all cops are crooked' or 'all black people are criminals'.
Again, my apoligies, Cap'n. I should not have doubted your awesomeness.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
