re: I have zero respect for anyone who is a Muslim and doesn't stand up to this BS

Literally any demonym works here. "Christian" is, for all intents and purposes, irrelevant. I only used it because almost all of us here come from Christian backgrounds.
Again, you create a mythical creature. Where is this violent Christian? When and where has be struck? If you said violent person I would agree wholeheartedly. But you chose to make this about Christianity versus Islam.
False. Equivalence.
Aside from all that, the idea that there aren't violent Christians is factually untrue, and I won't argue with you about that. If you need to double down on that, then that's your business, not mine.
Nevertheless, the point stands. The violent Muslim and the violent non-Muslim belong in prison. The peaceful Muslim and peaceful non-Muslim belong wherever they please.
Unfortunately, the vast majority of this board will gladly have the peaceful Muslim treated differently from gen-pop. We all know why. Saying it will get me banned by snowflakes, so I won't.

quote:We completely agree on this point. I watched a documentary yesterday called "The Jihadis Next Door" (it was filmed in England in 2014) and was shocked at the number of times devout Muslims confronted and literally fought with street preaching Islamists who were (obstensibly) recruiting for ISIS. Definitely changed my mind about how the average Muslim views violent Islamists.
