No, like Jesus who told Peter to put his sword away when the soldiers came to take him away. I am not arguing at all that we shouldnt defend ourselves. At all. Im just saying that the primary messages of Christ include forgiveness, turning the other cheek, and giving more than is asked. Jesus wasn't defending himself in the Temple. He was angrily judging the money changers, and physically throwing them out! His actions also really pissed off the Jewish authorities. Sorry, but that wasn't a "kumbaya" moment of forgiveness and turning the other cheek.

Bob Bennett did not end up meeting with Muslims in the hospital, but his wife said while they were at the airport over Christmas, he “would go to people with the hijab [on] and tell them he was glad they were in America and they were welcome here. He wanted to apologize on behalf of the Republican Party.”

As early as 1855, at a time when Christian literature generally ridiculed Muhammad as the Antichrist and the archenemy of Western civilization, Elders George A. Smith (181775) and Parley P. Pratt (180757) of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles delivered lengthy sermons demonstrating an accurate and balanced understanding of Islamic history and speaking highly of Muhammads leadership. Elder Smith observed that Muhammad was descended from Abraham and was no doubt raised up by God on purpose to preach against idolatry. He sympathized with the plight of Muslims, who, like Latter-day Saints, found it difficult to get an honest history written about them. Speaking next,
Elder Pratt went on to express his admiration for Muhammads teachings, asserting that upon the whole,
[Muslims] have better morals and better institutions than many Christian nations.

Yes, I have a Mormon friend who told me that. I don’t fault them for self-preservation, but if they do want to spread the word everywhere, they may need to take on some more risk (how long until they can’t go to Europe anymore)

Since I’m no longer a Republicrat he wouldn’t be apologizing for me.

Hitler’s cat’s-paw Himmler dabbled in Odin-worship & praising the Nordic gods of Wagnerian legend, and even tried to establish a “National Reich Church”.
But except for a handful of hardcore SS-Totenkopf & their `temple’ at Schloss Wewelsburg, the notion of a Nazi “religion” was a joke to Germans.
Hitler was an atheist. How do you create something from nothingness?

You make it a death penalty offense to insult the new Nazi religion. That did the trick for Islam. Cuts the dissident movement down like mown grass, and it never grows back.
