No, you missed my point. I'm asking you: do you hold any other group to the same standard of "marching in the street"?

So, a simple verbal denunciation doesn't cut the mustard for you?

Did you march against the American invasion of Iraq? Does your not marching mean that you supported it?

The insistence on holding Muslims to a different standard than any other faith, or even your own faithless self --that double-standard is my target. Why do you hold it?

Having lived in two different Muslim nations for about five years all told, I can tell you that they're not all bloodthirsty extremists. Assuming that they are until the do something like march in the streets to convince you is unreasonable, when you have facts, and denunciations, at your fingertips.
You've added a layer...

you say " I can tell you that they're not all bloodthirsty extremists. "

I didn't say that... I said the bloodthirsty extremeists are wrong

How many Muslims do you know?

How many Muslims have you lived amongst?

How many have you asked, "Will you die for this cause?"

Numbers, please. No bullshit, give us the hard facts upon which this sweeping pronouncement is based.

Isn't it funny how you can get aggressive to a western atheist for using the wrong word, but you're happy with this (seemingly):

Obne word: bullshit. Look at the link, Parkers Tan provided.
Ok I said all and should've said many, but what are you defending?
