Christians have a expression, “Hate the sin, not the sinner,” and I think most Americans would like to keep their judgments of individual Muslims separated from their opinions of Islam. The failure of most Muslims to accept and admit the true nature of Islam, which is violence and subjugation, makes it more, not less, difficult to make the sin and sinner distinction. The big lie that attempts to extricate Islam from terrorism by using terms like radical or fundamentalist, or accusing terrorists of misrepresenting the Koran and Islam will never become true, no matter how many times it is shouted. Islam is what it is, and it is troubling that so many Muslims wish to deceive us into thinking different. The dishonesty makes me think the smart thing is to assume all Muslims are potential terrorists, even though some, by their nature, not by Islam, might not be. Mush like this is for the hopelessly weak-minded.
