Islam is NOT a religion, it is a world system.

Yeah well they do use objects like scimitars to lop heads off and stones to kill people because they won’t worship their satanic god. That’s what they mean by objectification, right?

I thought the failed president told us that the US was founded on Muslim principles. Maybe it was on of his liars... I mean lackeys.

And yet, discussions about Muslims in the United States are not the same as most discussions of Catholics or Jews or other religious minorities.

Because they are not the same! Catholics, Jews, Amish, even Hare Krishnas don't proselytize by suicide bombing. Sure the Hare Krishnas made airport travel awkward, always pinning flowers on folks, but they didn't fly planes into sky scrappers. To fail to see the distinction is to be willfully blind. Islam has been a cancer on civilization ever since that child rapist Mohamed.

Have you noticed they can’t defend Muslims without impuning and lying about Christians?

Most of this is doubtful. There were very few Muslims in America until we got involved in the Middle East.

And there were very few Muslim slaves. Muslims in Africa were the slave TRADERS, but most if not all of the slaves were African animists. Slavery disappeared in the Western, Christian world but was revived by MUSLIMS.

Well, pinning flowers on folks is almost as bad as flying planes into skyscrapers.

Muslims don’t commit acts of terrorism.

Evil white teabaggers who doubt the truth of Global Warming do.

Anyway, you hatefilled racist white people shouldn’t judge all based on the actions of a few.

If you weren’t so bigoted, maybe you’d understand.

Now shut your racist faces and go pay your taxes. Your hard working government is broke. :)

Americans should fear Muslims, no matter how diverse and radically different from ISIS most members of that group may be.

Americans should fear Muslims, no matter how diverse and radically different from ISIS they may seem because in truth they are none of them radically different from ISIS. Radically means from the root and the root is the Koran and the Hadith. They are all literalists more than the most literalist Bible believing Christian is. The moderates believe the so called radicals are doing what they all should be doing. The moderates are those Moslems who are happy to let others do the necessary killing.

Jihad and its requirement for all Moslems to participate is explicit in the Koran and nothing in the wording is open to interpreting jihad as some sort of introspection and psychological renewal. It is explicitly raid and convert-enslave-or-kill the infidel. All one can really tell people who insist otherwise is READ THE BOOK. It is their operating manual.

Clearly Emma Green was absent from kindergarten the day when her class learned "one of these things is not like the others".

But I suppose that the only way to teach an unteachable one like Emma Green would be to take a vote and see which of those groups would claim that she's a whore who deserves to be raped because the way that she dresses reveals her face, her knees and her arms...

It’s very difficult to find out Emma Green’s religion, so she should just STFU about religion until she can provide some disclaimers.

Green, a former George F. Baker Scholar who majored in government, wasn’t specifically thinking of journalism or media, but knew she wanted a job that allowed her to read and write, talk to people, and analyze ideas. In July 2012, she began a fellowship program with The Atlantic, where she’s been ever since. She started in the events division before moving to the website, where she still works today.

In her work, Green writes about a variety of topics related to faith, religion, and culture, such as how childhood influences church attendance, how religious communities perceive climate change, and marriage equality. Many of Green’s undergraduate studies focused on religion in public life, which she now feels helped to prepare her for her current role.

“I often feel like I stumbled sideways into doing what I do now, but it’s very much a good fit. It’s been surprising how much my education has really come to bear on my work,” Green said. “I may be a bit unique because I cover things that you might study in a seminar [at Georgetown]. But I use political theory all the time—I took this great set of seminars in the College as part of the social and political thought program, and I swear I use those seminars every single day.”

It’s in their infernal book. All ya’ gotta do is read it. Thomas Jefferson and John Quincy Adams did.

They were a problem for us in the early days of the Republic, when they would seize our ships and sell Americans into slavery. It took the intervention of the Marine Corps to end this.

The first Muslims who came to the United States were likely African slaves.

Nothing like starting your screed with a falsehood.
