Islamophobia

So, what?
Are you saying islamophobia isn't real?
Or htat all charges of islamophobia are inaccurate?
Or if someone is exhibiting islamophobia, the subject of their phobis is suredly a jihadist?
Are you trying to say that all muslims are identical and should be treated in a uniform manner, of which islamophobia is a help, not a hindrance?

Where are you going with this?

I think it is something like: since one person speeding killed someone, that all speeders are killers.
 
Therefore all Islamophobia is unfounded?

Or, in today's political climate, replace "speeder" with "law enforcement officer".
 
What is wrong with fear and suspicion of Islam? From its inception its been a war mongering, terrorizing, human rights abusing frenzy. We only have the respite now because the Ottoman Empire collapsed under its own inertia. But - unlike, say, Christianity - Islam's early spread was not by unarmed itinerant priests but sword wielding maniacs. If someone said he belonged to a group which adheres to a belief that non-followers must be made subservient or die, that slavery and rape of non-followers is just, that learning (other than study of the Koran) is a sin, that music must be prohibited, that a woman who is raped is to be punished for adultery, that you must stop whatever you are doing to pray five times a day - wouldn't you think the fellow to be a little bit off? Wouldn't you think others who followed that belief system to be off, too? But, no. The West, dispensing with Christianity, has adopted the new religion of multiculturalism/cultural relativism. Western Civilization will crumble from its pathological politeness.

Or: One person speeding killed someone, so speed limits are set for all major roads.

I don't know any Muslims who believe all of that. And I know quite a few. If I met an individual like that I would be just as put-off by that person as if I met a person who held those beliefs but called himself Christian.

So your Muslims friends would be okay with their daughters marrying non-Muslim men?
 
Compare this with how Muhammad (May Shit Fill His Mouth) and his early followers spread their belief:

However, they assured me that the main of their fault, or of their mistake was this:-That they were wont, on a stated day, to meet together before it was light, and to sing a hymn to Christ, as to a god, alternately; and to oblige themselves by a sacrament [or oath], not to do anything that was ill: but that they would commit no theft, or pilfering, or adultery; that they would not break their promises, or deny what was deposited with them, when it was required back again; after which it was their custom to depart, and to meet again at a common but innocent meal, which they had left off upon that edict which I published at your command, and wherein I had forbidden any such conventicles.

So when you meet those who disbelieve [in battle], strike [their] necks until, when you have inflicted slaughter upon them, then secure their bonds, and either [confer] favor afterwards or ransom [them] until the war lays down its burdens. That [is the command]. And if Allah had willed, He could have taken vengeance upon them [Himself], but [He ordered armed struggle] to test some of you by means of others. And those who are killed in the cause of Allah - never will He waste their deeds.

Not all belief systems are the same.

Yes, and several have.
 
The no fly list doesn't go far enough. What we need is "Infidel Airlines" where muslims are not allowed on. muslims can fly Emirates.
 
I'm flying Emirates to the UK next year. It's a bit more expensive than some of the other options, but as it is a 24 hour flight (or rather, a 16 hour flight followed immediately by an 8 hour flight), comfort is important. I chose Emirates because there is a cocktail bar on the plane.

How very Islamic of them. :rolleyes:

Congratulations; just when I thought you couldn't possibly come up with any more stupid ideas than those you have previously posted, this gem proves me wrong. Well played.

I know many Muslim people and I know many who would totally be fine with it. Indeed, I know of many inter-faith marriages involving Muslims. Saudis, no less.

The point is to be careful when you claim islamophobia as sometimes the threat is real.

My non-Muslim cousin married a Muslim woman. She's an attorney who lives in that hotbed of terrorist activity known as Sioux Falls South Dakota.
