Thread Name: BS: Islamic radicalism . . .
Subject: RE: BS: Islamic radicalism . . .
I like cunts.

MtheGM, it is your posts, and those of your small coterie of followers, Teribillus, Akenhateon, KeiththeA, B-O-bad and Juicy Brucie, who persist in implying that ordinary Muslims are somehow similar to Islamists. You will find, if you bother to think, that the Islamists, while asserting that theirs is the true voice of Islam, also assert that non-militant Muslims (the vast majority) verge on apostasy or at least delinquency.

That implication of yours is the worldview that serves to radicalise non-radical Muslims. By all means defend against - indeed go on the offensive against - the Islamists, but not because of their religion, but their atrocities. Tarring my dentist, who goes by the name "Sharon" to make life easier for her dimmer patients, with the same brush will be counterproductive. I forgive her for prescribing metronidazole for my duff teeth as a first choice if I have a really boozy festival planned.

Curious that no-one seems to care whether vibrators are haram or not. I'd have thought it was a vital social distinction these days.
