I would like to know what the author considers "very few" and what evidence he has to back up this assertion.
M’kay. I’m a bigot. Now what?
Good. I’m a bigot. Given the things that are considered bigotry these days...like acknowledging reality, I wear it proudly.
Don't care anymore. Obama has made bigotry fashionable again. Given the ever expanding group of grievance mongers demanding things, it's getting to the point where if you're not some sort of a "bigot", you are an idiot.
Dear doctor: Did you just identify the gender of that baby? Youre a bigot.
No Sale!
Doesn’t calling someone a bigot because they don’t agree with you also make YOU a bigot?
Perhaps very few actually perpetrate the violence, but a majority SUPPORT IT.
Yeah for bigotry!!!!!!!!!!
It’s not a religion. It’s a violent world-domination movement cleverly disguised as a religion.
There’s not just the social ostracization of criticizing Islam,
they’re going for criminalization.
And the point is not for your avg Joe to be criminalized,
but for Christians to be criminalized.
Islam appears to have many tenets that are in contradiction with the individual liberties protected by the Bill of Rights. These God-given liberties/rights are the foundation upon which our society and government rest. I, for one, will continue to oppose any action, policy or trend that would suppress my liberty because it “offends” a Muslim or places him in a “non-safe space” emotionally, or affronts his right to practice his religion (interpreted as “impose his religion” on the rest of us.)
If we don’t fight for our rights, they will be consumed by this religion. Go ahead, call me a bigot. I will call you a blind fool in return.
I’m just plain old Islamo-Nauseous.
“To find out who rules over you, simply find out who you may not criticize.”
I guess everyone in the bible was a bigot and I’m happy to be in their company, especially after I die.
yeah yeah,
I criticize this quota boy pres of ours and I am a bigot.
State that I think islam is not the religion of peace and not really a religion at all, and I am a bigot.
State that I think jenner ought to be taken up in a Huey to about 3500 feet and thrown out and i am a bigot.
State that I think illegals ought to be deported and i am a bigot.
let me know there folks i am trying to bat 1000.
Yes, quite the "PR" problem! And, seriously, who exactly calls Islam the "religion of peace" with a straight face?
Added to the mix is the oppression of minorities, specifically women and gays, within some Muslim countries.
And by "some Muslim countries", we mean "all Muslim countries"...
Its hardly controversial to say that Islam has problems to address, though it can quickly get you called a bigot
Yes. Why is that?
I'll tell you why. Because there are too many cowards unwilling to call a spade a spade. And this is coming from someone who believes that anti-Muslim bigotry can be taken too far!
Islam, IMHO, is, quite frankly, inferior, inasmuch as it does not teach love (at least not enough love) but rather promulgates hate.
To any Muslims who read this, it gives me no joy to say that, but it sadly and heart-breakingly appears to be the truth.
I invite moderate Muslims to prove me wrong with actions, not mere words.
Why is the above true?
Because the Koran is evidently full of intolerance, bigotry, and unspeakably violent rhetoric.
The Koran is basically the exact opposite of the Christian New Testament.
That is not to say that there aren't many Muslims who choose to focus on whatever positive teachings exist in the Koran. I know there are many such Muslims, because Americans interact with them on a daily basis down at the corner store.
American culture, with all of its flaws, has a profoundly moderating effect on hate, thankfully. Freedom, opportunity and a Christian foundation will do that.
But when a hate-filled savage Wahhabist animal can point to verses in his holy book which justify unspeakable violence, and brainwash generations of children to embrace the same inhuman behavior, then we have a major problem.
In Wahhabist Islam, we essentially have a religion which is fundamentally incompatible with modern, Christian, egalitarian Western civilization.
And if the moderate Muslims don't purge these violent animals from their ranks, the rest of the world will eventually impose a final solution from the outside.
And at that point, a quarter of the world's population will necessarily be obliterated.
I hope and pray that the Muslim world reaches a critical mass, and sees this reality before it's too late. Because the alternative is their utter annihilation, which will happen at great cost of blood, treasure, and spirit to the rest of the world as well.
The Islamic religion must be cleansed, either from within or without.
Since we're never going to be able to destroy every copy of the Koran, the only alternative is for Wahhabist Muslims to join the modern world and stop repressing their fellow men and women.
Muslims must learn to tolerate homosexuals, Jews, Christians, and all the other "infidels", to the point that we can all peacefully coexist.
That means not hating those, even of their own faith, with whom they disagree. That means forever rejecting the murderous and suicidal tenets of the Wahhabist mindset.
