That, Rhythm, is precisely what everyone is hoping to achieve. But believing naively that this is so for enough muslims already that their particular religion doesn't represent a graver problem than any other group in the world at the moment isn't going to help us achieve that goal.Where their beliefs fall on a line hardly matters, so long as they fail to act on those beliefs that lie outside of that line we have no reason to be suspicious of that person. Silly people believe silly shit, the crushing majority are not terrorists on account of it.
Quote:It isn't like that. The man in the mosque does act out on those beliefs far more often than your lady at the walmart does. Not to mention, the nature of the first's beliefs, his interpretations of them and their subsequent consequences far surpass in graveness, on average, the latter's, and that's all the difference in the world.Oh but it is, and your obsession with muslim nutjobs can't be anything more than the presentment effect, because if you walk -your- silly ass on over to the FBI's website and check some stats, you'll find that even -after- accounting for the recent exportation of violent islamism...it's still home grown native christians leading the ideologically driven violence race. OFC a person with an ounce of common sense wouldn't have to look..because they'd realize that the majority status of christians all but ensures their representation in our stats.
I'm as eager as the next guy to see islam go off into the night, as silently as possible...but peddle this shit someplace other than the internet, to people who have fewer than the two brain cells required to come up with it. Muslims, that have you so worked up...compared to their christian counterparts you seem to see as innocuous, rate no higher than enthusiastic amatuers. Don't let them scare you, or the terrorists have won.
Your beliefs do matter, as does what you say you intend to do because of them. Islamists are worrisome by definition, and there's no amount of mental gimnastics you can do to escape that fact. The larger "innocent" part of a group that supports the more radical part also matters.
Your regressiveness actually disgusts me beyond words at this point. But then I read your second paragraph and realise that you're simply misinformed, so it's probably not your fault. Let me educate you just a little, but do promise to properly educate yourself afterwards. Islam is more than ten times the problem Christianity is right now. Islam is a credible threat to humanity's survival itself, that's how much of a problem it is. And, sorry, my American friend, but us Europeans actually do have more of a reason to worry about imported Islam than about cultural Christianity right now. Soon enough, you'll have to worry about it too, though, don't you doubt that for a second.
