It’s boring to me since it’s very easy for me to see the faults of a religion that I have no association with.
I am wondering if there are a lot of exmuslim people here or if it’s people raised in a christian world that just have a specific gripe with islam.
I was raised in a part of the world mostly shaped by christianity and so I was hoping to see more examination of that.
Because fuck them too
It’s ironic that you’re saying this when just a few days ago people were complaining about the lack of criticism towards Islam.
It’s probably due to the fact that some people who criticized Islam on these posts are brigaded by downvotes in their comment history. Basically a fuck you to these zealots who think we give a fuck about their religion.
Being that more people than ever are getting online and becoming more able to access technology, we are seeing how Izlam is the world’s biggest religion next to Xtianity. This should be very alarming, not because something other than Xtianity is so big, but because these mother fuckers are very forward in saying they want us dead and to rule the world with a sharia fist.
i won’t defend the religion but you are mistaking a majority of muslims with a minority of maniacal hotheads. Most muslims don’t give a damn about your life or death and a great majority of them don’t want to live under sharia either.
we should learn to hate the religion without hating people and not confuse the two.
Believers of any religion come in exactly two varieties: extremists and those who provide aid and cover for extremists. The nice old lady down the street doing a bake sale and donating the proceeds to her church is still supporting an institution that hides child molesters, robs the community of their time, money and critical thinking skills and advocates for harmful public policy that strips people of their rights. That last piece is supposed to be prohibited by 501(c)(3) rules in the US but I’m not holding my breath waiting to see those enforced.
Here’s my hypothesis. People have little contact to Muslims and the way Islam is being usually practiced. Thus people’s opinion of Islam is heavily influenced by the worst shit and stereotypes. With Christianity most people have friends or relatives that are “moderate” christians or whatever. So the worst versions of Christianity are less present.
