A Misconception about Islam
#33
RE: A Misconception about Islam
You know, one of the things I've noticed is that those who state most vehemently that this or that extremist group does not represent their religion or aren't real <insert your religion here> on forums and websites are often quiet on the extremists on other media whether in real life or other places.

Example: Riots in Sydney a couple of years ago by a "minority" of Muslims, yet only a tiny number of other Muslims, disgusted by their antics, actually confronted them about it.

If the majority speaks up the extremists will often - not always - be drowned out.
If the majority fails to speak out, the extremists see this as condoning their actions.

Playing Cluedo with my mum while I was at Uni:

"You did WHAT?  With WHO?  WHERE???"
