Social justie whack-a-do defending Islam

[Mister Agenda]

I have to give credit to the Islamic fundamentalists for managing to convince a lot of people, that criticism of Islam equals something equivilent to racism.

I am going to give an example of this craziness in recent proposals here in Australia to ban the public wearing of the burka or niqab. There are very good reasons for initating this ban. However critics are jumping over and down saying it is Islamicphobic and etc.

If there's a special law for the burqa and not public mask-wearing in general, it is Islamophobic. And anti-secular, to boot.

It's truly amazing. You point out to people some of the very noxious ideas perpetuated in the Qur'an and the hadith and they reply, "But you're generalizing about all Muslims."

Bitch please. The only Muslims I'm generalizing about are adherents and supporters of homophobic, sexist, and violent ideas as explicitly contained in the texts of the Prophet--considered divine and infallible, and as such, the foundation and pinnacle of a rational ethic. Even if these people are not themselves dangerous, they're providing the wellspring for such ideologies to arise.

If you're a Muslim who can admit that some of your religion's holy texts are vile and should be viewed as restricted to the 7th-century, where such barbarism should have remained, all the power to you.

There's a perfectly cromulent word for people like that: Islamists.
