It is utterly insane. No one in their right mind would argue that one of the positive merits of Nazism was that Hitler was a vegetarian. Mohammed was a murderer , a thief , a pedophile and a sexual degenerate. For a man who claimed to be a prophet of God, what was divine about his life? What miracles did he preform and who’s sins did he die for? Indeed the two central tenants of Islam are violent murder and sexual degeneracy. As to ‘’moderation’’, I’ve gone blue in the face asking time and again if Islam were so bloody peaceful, why the need for ‘’moderation’’? Wouldn’t that make the argument it isn’t peaceful? Ask that of someone the next you find yourself with some twit who is trying to tell you that Islam is peaceful because there are ‘’moderates’’ and it’s only the ‘’radicals’’ who defame Islam. In fact, let them walk into a trap of their own gullibility as I do and make them look totally stupid. Draw them in by taking their assertion and make it a question: “So if it’s the ‘’radicals’’ who are at fault, then the ‘’moderates’’ are the ‘’peaceful Muslims’’. They’ll always answer “Yes’’. It’s then that I ask them my question. Good God you should see the utterly blank and stupid look on their faces.
Solid point. I’m going to try that.
