A Simple Rule

[Thumpalumpacus]

The new rule makes it clear that while moderates may be nice people, they don't represent what their religion really teaches.

Seems to me that we'd be better off encouraging more believers to be moderates, rather than pushing them into the arms of the extremists by labeling them as not true Xers.

To suggest there might be a relationship between Islamic violence and Islamic theology, or to even want to discuss the issue, earns you the label of "racist".

The issue there is linguistic; people are using "racist" when they mean "bigot".

And clearly some of the folks discussing the relationship between Islamic violence and Muslim theology are bigots.
