“Yes, but…” This has come to represent the heart of all Muslim apologetics. Whenever an Islamic doctrine or principle is accused of promoting hatred, violence, misogyny, etc., its defenders rush to argue that, “Yes, a few Muslims twist this teaching for their ends, but the doctrine is really teaching something else.”
For instance, in his defense of the Islamic doctrine of taqiyya, which permits deception—under limited or broad circumstances being the point of contention—Usama Hasan offered the following “yes, but” explanation:
It is true that hardened islamist terrorists, such as the Al-Qaeda & ISIS supporter Usman Khan who murdered two people at Fishmongers’ Hall [after pretending to have been “rehabilitated”], do misuse the principle of taqiyyah in order to further their cause. However, the charge that all Muslims are generally religiously obligated to lie, and do so routinely, is both dangerous and untrue.
But how is the infidel to know which Muslim is and isn’t “misusing the principle of taqiyyah,” particularly since not a few Muslims are convinced that Islam allows them to lie and deceive—so long as doing so can be seen as helping further the cause of Islam (based on their prophet’s own employment of deceit)? In other words, the real problem isn’t that “hardened Islamist terrorists … misuse” this or that Muslim doctrine, but rather that such teachings are fundamentally unethical and, as such, have always, from the very beginnings of Islam, lent themselves to being “misused.”

The Koran
Consider, for example, this Arabic-language video of a Muslim cleric in Egypt addressing how terrorists “misuse” Islamic scriptures to justify killing non-Muslims. He was specifically addressing the bombing of Coptic Orthodox churches, which in recent years have left dozens of Christian worshippers dead in Egypt.

Yes, but they still frequently lie and kill people. Frequently, overwhelmingly, constantly...throughout history.
So if they admit they lie, can you ever believe anything they say?
If some Muslims misuse the Koran to their advantage and the Islamic church syas that it is wrong to do so...why doesn’t the church publicly call them out and sanction or remove them?
Muslim Terrorist = Will behead you for any reason.
Moderate Muslim = Reports you to the terrorist network so you can be beheaded
Peaceful Muslim = Hopes some of his moderate friends will report you to the terrorist network.
There is no “but.” The Koran is what it is and it is death, enslavement, or conversion to ALL infidels. The Islamic War and its Terror attributes has been running for 1400 years and will continue until all the people of the world are Moslem or until none are.
Yes but
IS
taqiyyah
( which is Islam for weasel )
.
The Islamic escape clause to justify lies in face of their god. “one can lie with your tongue but not heart”.
Where is Charles Martel?
I think the ChiComs are doing a pretty good job of suppressing Muslims over there.
I will go with my teaching about mohammedanism, circa 1966.
It is a theocratic system spread by force, defended by lies, with an underlying design to subjugate the world. Resistance will be met by force, and a blood feud has existed between the priesthood of mohammedanism and Christianity, et al.
In 1972, I was witness to the peace and love of mohammedanism, as it extended its reach within the country of Thailand. They demonstrated their love by blowing up a coffee shop in downtown Bangkok. They displayed their Siamese citizenship by them seizing a portion of the peninsula of the country, and demanded they be allowed to form their own country. Once again, demonstrating their inability to assimilate to the local culture.
In life everything after ‘’but’’ is bs.
One of the great ironies of this truly gutter religion is that the vast majority of it’s adherents are illiterate.
