And they even say it out loud. Most grievous is that they pretend to have morals, so blinded by their religion that they can't see the fall ahead of them. Made one day we will have a world not without religion, but a world where the religious accept other religions or no religion and keep their religion to the respective temples. Shit, I am daydreaming again.

Or listening to "Imagine".

Personally, I don't buy a religion that advocates conversion at the point of a sword, or the muzzle of a gun. Kloro will claim that is not "real" islam. Perhaps it isn't. But it is most of it as practiced in the real world. Saying those muslims are theologically wrong is useless. It doesn't matter. They are actively practicing that in their daily lives. It matters not a whit that Kloro thinks that is a wrong interpretation of islam. He is fringe islam at best. The rest of islam keeps on trucking with the random killings, and gross misogyny, and terrorism, and suicide bombings and so forth  all in the name of an interpretation of islam that Kloro claims is incorrect.

So the inevitable question occurs. Does Kloro think that the actions of islam as a whole are wrong? Will he condemn the suicide loons? Stand by for some industrial grade apologetics.

And lest I be accused of singling out islam, all of the abrahamic religions are in the same boat. All of them operate on power and abuse of the vulnerable without exception. With judaism and christianity, at least we are at last starting to hold the bastards accountable. Islam is intentionally constructed so that nobody can be held accountable.

If we can go after the horrible priests, pastors, and rabbis that abuse children, why is it that we cannot hold the imams to the same standard?
