"I can remember a time when the same questions were asked of and about Catholics"
--- Yes, you can.
However, the Catholics were not advocating murder, rape and terrorism
Thank you!
That is a specious comparison. What Pope, or local Catholic priest, urges the faithful to butcher others,commit murder/suicide, or insist that no other religion but Catholicism should exist-much less that it should rule the world?
No other modern religion can be compared to Islam for barbaric savagery. You have to go back to the real dark ages.
