“It would be religious bigotry to exclude a Muslim from consideration for no other reason than his religious beliefs.”

So you are bigoted against bigots? Like myself, I presume. But that makes you a bigot against bigots.

You see, my religion says to reject idiots like yourself who would vote for someone whose religious belief is that the rest of us should be DEAD!! Consequently, you are bigoted against my religious beliefs.

Amazingly enough, you are bigoted against my religious beliefs, which are ones of self preservation, while you show no bigotry against those who support the muder of children.

That makes you an absolute moron, your logic is as just shown internally inconsistent.

I would like it shown for the record that FastCoyote has elected to dismiss logic in favor of personal attacks - precisely what he and his fellows have accused some of us of doing.

Now, as to your question, FC, by your logic, then the judge and jury are murderers against a murderer; the police are robbers against a robber.

I see that Islam has a lot of potential for good, just as Christianity had that potential in the dark days before the Reformation.

How can Islam achieve that potential if we aren't willing to give the benefit of the doubt to the genuinely earnest, good ones?

The kind of point of view that you demonstrate regarding them is exactly the kind that fuels the animosity between them and the West.

I disagree with Islam. I don't think everything it teaches is true; but to the extent that it helps people become better and more Christlike toward their fellowman - and there are hundreds of millions of them around the world for whom this is the case, despite the negative stereotype that you hold - then it is of God.

I would have no problem voting for a Muslim that fit the above description, if he were an ideological conservative.

And you should have no problem voting for a Mormon candidate who agrees with your political values.
