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?
And I showed you CHRISTIANS calling for the death of gays.
Look asshole, nobody is disagreeing that the Quran is used to justify harm to others. What we are saying though is that you ignorantly don't want to face that ALL holy books are used as weapons to justify harm to others. Now instead of stupidly claiming we are singling you out, which none of us are, try understanding that.
YES the Quran justifies killing gays, and apostates such as other minority Muslims or non Muslims or those who leave Islam. We DO agree the words are there, nobody is in denial, or should deny that.
That still does not give you an excuse to ignore that the bible is ALSO used as a weapon, and the only reason that the west is less violent now in this point in history is because our western secular governments won't put up with the prior barbarity Christianity once reflected. But the words are still there, and the videos of CHRISTIANS calling for the deaths of gays are there. Now, stop ignoring that. Nobody is out to get you personally for pointing that out to you.
Do not rightfully point out the holy book justified transgressions of other's religions and stupidly ignore your own. Every religion is guilty of this. Nobody is treating you differently or unfairly. You have been on this website for YEARS. You have no excuse to falsely play victim here anymore than Atlas or Mystic do.
