You don’t see an obligation to stand up for evil? And you don’t see Islam as evil?

Our government not only has diplomatic relations, but is allies with, numerous countries which are Islamic majorities by design (Saudi Arabia chief among them).

Are we going to engage in a holy war against Islam? If so, which sect: Shia, Sunni, or does it not matter?

For that matter, which religion would we be crusading on behalf of? The Catholics? The Orthodox? The Protestants? The Jews? Or just non-Muslims in general?

Because in that case, we have Muslims here at home who might have a word with you about that...and then the strength of our “freedom of religion” would truly be put to the test.

Don’t get me wrong, I believe Islam professes evil doctrine and evil morals; however, when our country — as a foundational Constitutional principle — does not differentiate between one religion or another (in fact, religious tests are forbidden outright by Article 6), how is it in the country’s national interest to be in a state of war against the adherents of one *specific* religion without coming across as incoherent?

Is that some kind of joke?

Of all the evils a typical American faces these days, Islam probably doesn’t even make the top 50 on the list. The biggest threats to my life and liberty are right here in the U.S. — and they aren’t Muslims.

And if you really believe that Islam is evil, you should sit down and take sober look at the country in which you live — and recognize how disgraceful it is that these Muslims are the ones pushing back hardest against the diabolical homosexual/“transgender” culture.
