Why do Atheists defend Islam?

[Mechaghostman2]

I'll just say this: Nobody died over the movie The Life Of Brian by Monty Python. People did however die over a very cheap and poorly acted Innocence Of The Muslims film. As well, nobody has killed anybody over any movie being made against atheists like "God's Not Dead." You make a movie or you draw a cartoon that is satirizing any other religion or non-religion, and nobody is killed. You make a movie or draw a cartoon satirizing Islam, Muhammad, Muslims, etc., and people are killed.

It doesn't matter that the majority of Muslims don't want to kill you, because there are still a great many Muslims that do. The statement "not all Muslims" is fucking irrelevant, because there are enough Muslims who act in such a way to be a problem.

355 mass shootings so far this year. 0.56% of them carried out by Muslims, who are 0.9% of the populations. I think you're engaging in poor risk assessment.

I'd like to see those numbers in Muslim countries.

It's hilarious, when one speaks out against Islam and the danger that said ideology has, the first people that tend to rush in to defend them are Atheists. Not all Atheists are like this, many of them aren't, especially the most public ones like Dawkins and Harris, but there's no denying that many Atheists are.

It's kind of troubling for these same Atheists who will sit there and bash on say Christians that don't wanna make a cake or don't like abortion, but at the same time defend a religion that stones women to death for the crime of being raped. They defend that in the name of multi-culturalism and cultural relativism, but don't apply those same standards to the culture of the religious majority in their own country, which is a big double standard.

Either all culture based on religion is bad (which is my position,) or there is no primitive and civilized culture and all cultures must be respected (which is the shittiest position to take.) Anything else is just applying standards to one and not the other.
