I do not believe Islam is an evil religion. I believe evil people practice Islam. When someone is evil, they will use anything to justify their actions. I defend this religion because I have been acquainted with several practitioners in the course of my life who are nothing but honorable people.

And of those practictioners of Islam, how many of them are assimilated into Western culture? How many were FOB migrants who practiced Sharia law?
Call me or label me what you will. I just don't believe in hate. Nuff said.
It's not hate. It's the truth. Islam is an evil religion. More than Christians, Jews, Catholics and even secular beliefs, Islam has tops the charts for people killede throughout history. Why? Because their prophet specifically tells them to go out and conquer. And chop off heads of those that don't convert.
There is an absolute moral truth here : Islam is evil. The people who you consider honorable do not practice Islam to the letter of the law.
I agree- I don't believe in religion in itself is evil it's people who practice the religion that do evil things- including Christians. The IRA are prime examples- the Protestants and Catholics were bombing each other every week. The KKK also consider themselves Christians- because they are Christians does that make Christianity a racist religion? You made a very valid point.
Except the part where Jesus never tells Christians to go around chopping off heads, whereas, the Quran does. I love it when people who know jack shit about religion try to make this about people. The reality is, certain cultures are inferior. That's not an opinion.
Christianity only has one wide scale mass military esque movement associated with it throughout all of history, and that would be the Crusades.
And the Crusades was a response to.. wait for it... Jihad! So, even the standard leftist response about Christian/Catholic aggression was actually defending itself against Jihadism. Gosh, I hate facts. It completel topples stupid leftists talking points.
aoi == true keyboard warrior that was probably making the same impassioned neocon arguments semi eloquently back in 2003 for why we need to invade iraq.
Actually in 2003, I was still a teen and still in college, so I didn't care and didn't tune in. But now that this is happening, time and time, I am more vocal about expressing my disdain towards a religion that is only taking and never giving. Oh, and yeah, I was one of the people involved in that Garland bombing incident. And I was probably a liberal then.
True, and sometimes the left will blow stuff like this way out of proportion. For me the bottom line on what happened is just some Nut Job saw a couple guys kissing at an airport and decided he was going to shoot up a gay nightclub in response. While that exchange was going on I was watching a report on channel 8 that was saying that the guy was diagnosed bipolar, and that he did have some mental issues going on.
He was also, ya know, practicing a religion that hangs gay people and tosses them off buildings in the country where it is the dominant religion. He also called and pledged to ISIS prior to killing. He was also involved in numerous incidents with people he worked with, making terroristic threats. And his dad praised the Taliban. So, no. It wasn't just an issue of a guy getting triggered by two dudes kissing. It was clearly religiously motivated and militant-powered (ISIS). Just because someone says "It's not about the religion" doesn't mean it isn't.
read up on the religion's role in spread of imperialism in the americas. oh, or are we gonna let that slide since it only affected those non-white savages? also arent we conveniently forgetting the murder of 6 million jews by neo christian knights aka nazis?
Christianity didn't have anything to do with "imperialism." That was politically motivated. That was about the crown. And, honestly, those "non-white savages" had been killing each other for thousands of years prior to anyone from Europe setting food on soil then. They are stupid, uncivilized animals and their sacrifice allowed for the start of civilization.
And the nazis were not Christians. It is well known that Hitler used religion as propoganda. The last time I checked, Jesus never told anyone to kill Jews. In fact, Jesus said forgive them.
You know who said to kill... everyone? Muhommed. See how different the two are?
perhaps we should ban introverted students in schools and crazy looking phd students in movie theaters...that should help with all the mass murder in our schools and movie theaters. that isnt any more simplistic than the prescriptions put forth by the trump supporters.
Or, you know, we could remove all the stupid activist college professors who go around teaching about how evil America is, despite working at an American college, getting paid for by American tax dollars and enjoying American freedoms and benefits.
Trump supporters just want to stop this political correctness bullshit. Call the spade, a spade. Or in this case, call Islam for what it is - an evil death cult responsible for the overwhelming majority of the world's war-related deaths.
And as Chung said, the left will always sugarcoat it as "We can't say this about -X- group of people" It's a stupid straw man because they don't want to acknowledge that, yes, some beliefs are inherently evil, Islam being one of them! The left is one of the reasons why America is in such a shit hole now. Shit like the trans movement, SJWs, constant Muslim dick sucking and BLM is why people are getting sick of liberalism. That's just to name a few.
Facts and logic. God, I hate being right.
