The Myth of the Tiny Radical Muslim Minority

[Jackie]

Um no one is saying that is a TINY minority. It is a huge minority. But it is still not the majority.

You still have a large enough few that are holding that region hostage.

If any ideology inspires even a mere 10% of its adherents to such heights of destruction and hatred, it is a toxic ideology.

I am fair to history and all issues of dogmatism and ideology. I also hate that atheists are starting their own "churches". It is easy in the moment to claim " I am not them" but that does not and will not ever negate the fact that we are the same species capable of the same range of cruelty and compassion.

I am sure it is more than 10% but that still does not constitute a majority.

The long term problem for our species that has always been is our collective short term thinking and gap filling.

There is no way our species on a planet of 7 billion to get everyone on the same page and force everyone to like each other. I am hopeful though with social media that more humans are waking up to the idea that we are not a separate species.

It is why Froodo has not murderd me and why I have not murdered him and we are both ABBA fans that everyone else wants to murder.

Not all Muslims are observant e.g Albanians and Azerbaijanis

Isn't it weird that the Iranian people aren't that religious?

They do not have to be, but the core of their government is. And they are the ones with the power.
