I don't believe there's any other religion that tells its adherents that it's perfectly fine to kill people of other faiths...or kill agnostics. But if there were another religion that had those things in its holy book, who among us would tolerate them killing people like Muslims do? Nobody.

I'm a Christian, but if a group of Christians went around murdering people of other faiths or agnostics, I'd condemn them quite readily and look forward to their executions. Where are the average Muslims condemning all the violence?

I understand the reluctance. Imagine you're Joe Blow in New York City. A journalist asks you to condemn a Mafia kingpin responsible for rubbing out dozens of people. He wants to print your name, so readers will know that this is not some figment of his imagination. The typical response is likely to be "No comment."

The left loves to control public thought by manipulating us with words and meanings. For instance, a Muslim terrorist is called a fanatic, an Islamic fanatic, a religious fanatic, and then the left will do the do the bait and switch, and call someone a religious fanatic who is a Christian fanatic. The left has made all fanatics the same, equal, only they aren’t, not even close. What one’s fanaticism makes them is completely relevant to what they are fanatical about, and how they choose to express that fanaticism.

A fanatical Muslim and a fanatical Christian are very likely to be completely different in what they believe, how they express their beliefs, and what they become because of their beliefs. One, the Christian, can be a very good and decent person, doing no harm to anyone. What the Christian can’t be, and be truly fanatical about following Christ, is a terrorist, a violent person or a militant person. A Muslim is under no such constraints. A good Muslim can slip into your house at night, slit your throat, rape your wife and daughter before torturing them to death, and leave your house a good Muslim. That is the nature of Islam, and why throwing the word fanatic around is meaningless.

All Muslims are inherently terrorists whether or not they demonstrate it. Islam is terrorism, and nothing in the history of Islam’s drive to conquer the world proves different.
