What we are saying is you don't get a pass either. You keep failing to taking into account TIME and geography and secular law in the west.
Your holy book is just as chalk full of justifications for religious tribalism, sexism, bigotry, homophobia and violence. The west simply has had a longer time of individuals ignoring those violent stories in favor of common law.
Christianity did not make the west civil, our species evolutionary empathy allowed more people to ignore that comic book tribalism.
If you are not afraid to criticize Islam, then where is the criticism? I show you a news report from this area where it clearly explains a local Mosque invited a Imam to call for the deaths of homosexuals 3 weeks before this thing happened..
Again, would your current nonchalant attitude towards a religious leader be the same if he were a bishop from the RC church and the shooter a roman Catholic?
What is your evidence that the shooter carried out the shooting due to what the imam said?
If a Christian were to shoot up a nightclub full of homosexuals and someone linked you to one of the many sermons Christian pastors have made calling for the death of homosexuals, you would be singing a completely different tune, I have no doubt.
Never mind. I already know how you're going to answer.
