I am thinking about a “Peaceful Moderate Muslim Litmus Test.”

Ask them if they will condemn Mohammed for his mass-murder by beheading of 500-900 captured Jewish boys and men in AD 627, and for the subsequent mass rape and enslavement of the remaining Jewish girls and women.

Mohammed personally beheaded bound victims and raped a Jewish widow on the bloody ground, setting the example for all Muslims for all time.

Ask Muslims if they will condemn Mohammed for this. He could have shown mercy and banished the Jewish tribe as he did in other cases. Instead, he ordered the captive men and boys to be beheaded, so that he could divide up the booty (property and women) among his 3,000 jihadists, after he took 20% of the booty off the top.

Just ask Muslims if they will condemn Mohammed for this mass murder and mass rape atrocity. See what they say.

Hawkins in this article goes on to say: It’s an even worse mistake for Westerners to tell Muslims that if they understood their own religion, they’d want to murder us, which is something some misguided people have been doing over the last few years.

That's horse puckey, because he goes on to extol the virtues of the supposedly existent moderate Muslim world.

The reason it's easy to polarize a Muslim is because their political movement masquerading as a religion has a set of writings that encourage violence.

The so-called moderate muslim can only be viewed as a poor reader lacking comprehension skills.
