I'm not saying that either.
I think it's kind of an over-simplification if you, or anyone, assumes that Muslims will be put on a terror watchlist simply because of the fact that they believe in Allah. The first step would be to just enter all of them into a data or list (and not necessarily a "terror" list, although yes you could think of it that way). But to determine which of them are actual and serious threats within that list - surely, that would require some additional information.
So, my point is, there are possibly other "criterias" that will be taken into account in order to decide who is a threat and who isn't. You don't know what they are yet. Only time will tell, but I think it's good to give it a try. Maybe I'll change my position on this if the idea does get implemented later. Maybe this won't help anyone and only make things worse. Basically, it depends on what the criterias are, i.e. whether they are reasonable or not.
Not to mention that we TOTALLY killed this thread.
