If he isnt one the term should mean nothing to him and in fact he should be calling them the same thing.

Precisely. The reluctance of "good Muslims" to enthusiastically and consistently condemn fascist-terrorist Islamists by calling them what they are is quite revealing.

"Here's the rest of the piece: "

You can see from the posts who didn't bother to read any of it.

Sad but true. Still, you won't be liked on this thread for having such a politically incorrect opinion.

Being "liked" on this thread is something I couldn't care less about. Being a good Christian, a good American and a good person is what is important. Terrorists want to kill anyone who doesn't believe in their evil, perverted Islamic extremism. That includes you, me, and yes, American Muslims. American Muslims know it, and most people with an ounce of commonsense know it too.

There is NO reason, other than sloth, for a man of good will to remain true to a "religion" that offers up justifications for the subjugation, humiliation and maiming of women, for the denigration, subjugation and forced conversion of whole populations (that's called "genocide", folks), the targeted, intentional killing of innocents to make political points, and the rationalization of child molestation as its central tenets.

Any Muslim that wants to be taken seriously as a patriotic American, or even as a decent human being, ought to forthwith, and with sincerity, strong purpose and resolve, publicly and proudly denounce, renounce Islam and all it stands for. Then I will take pronouncements of tolerance and benign intention seriously.

Until then, it's mere deception and poop.

Not everyone of the Muslim faith believes that they must subjugate or extreminate everyone who is not of their religious faith. It's been said, time and time again, but some prefer not to listen. They, American Muslims and other Muslims are between a rock and a hard place.

Many CHRISTIANS distanced themselves BIG TIME from David Koresh and his Waco Gang. Christians all over the Earth cried out against Jim Jones and the horrible tragedy in Jonestown Guyana. Why can't some of these Muslims stand up and denounce that there Brothers who march in circles around the black rock in Mecca with them have done to the good image of their peaceful faith?

I regularly renounce stupid comments made by Christians. The real difference is in my acceptance that some Christians are idiots and then there's the fact that Christians aren't threatening to kill everyone who disagrees.

I don't see why that should be so hard for islamderthals.

Maybe because they don't want to have their heads cut off? Just a thought.

You seem to have lost all reason. To argue with you would be as much of a waste of time as arguing with a Liberal. Been there, done that. Sorry, but you have allowed your hatred for Islamic facists/extremists/terrorists to cloud your better judgement, IMHO.

"When large numbers of American muslims are shown to have TURNED IN extremists to the FBI,"

I would think the first thing to enable that is that there would have to be large numbers of extremists here to be turned in - from the looks of the numbers so far, there are simply not that many.

The Palestinian grocery store owner in Phoenix has called the United States home for 25 years and feels as American as the next guy.

Then why don't they call him an American grocery store owner?

Izlam is pretty much a one-way street, the way I see it. Like in that Eagles' somg:
"You can check in anytime you like but you can never leave".

And no, unlike what you seem to think, many are distrustful of izlam despite the establishment's whitewashing of evil deeds committed by izlam while expressly following their holy book. If the media for one were half as critical of muzlims as it is of practising Christians, hell would break loose. Anyways, I respect your right to disagree. (Don't expect such disrespect from devout muzlims when you disagree with, say, the koranic punishments for apostasy etc). Just my $0.02.

You are doing what others are doing. You refuse to believe that there are peace-loving Muslims in America and elsewhere. To say they must give up their entire religion to satisfy your Islamophobia is wrong, IMO. They do not agree with the extremists. Much as some of us Christians do not believe in things that are touted as the "only way" by some right-wing-Christian-extremists. Should I have to give up being a Christian because we have some Christian extremists in this world? I think NOT.
