Islam is a violent, dangerous, and backwards theology/philosophy. Anyone who is an adherent of Islam is either a) violent, dangerous, and backwards or b) completely oblivious to what their religion actually teaches.
Whereas the argument can be made that many, if not most, religions have records of violence at some point in their history, you rarely hear of new cases of atrocities committed by them in this day and age. When you do, it's typically a fringe group that goes against nearly every tenet of the theology they claim to follow. Muslims, on the other hand, follows the tenets of their ideology closely. They can be found maiming, oppressing, and killing others in the name of their 'god' in countries throughout the world every single day.
That is what I have against Muslims.

Hey, we can make baseless claims, too! This is fun!

Like invading a country based on false claims?
"When you do, it's typically a fringe group that goes against nearly every tenet of the theology they claim to follow"
Well, yes, you got me there.

In other words, when Christians do it, they're not true Christians. But when a fringe Muslim commits a terrorist act, they're all terrorists.
And your God commits and foments genocide, and Jesus condemns most of humanity to eternal torment. Religion, ya just gotta love it, huh?
I despise Stormfront and their racist views. But at the risk of getting quoted as a fundie myself (I am an atheist, mind you), I do agree. As nasty as the god of the Bible is, at least he (clumsily) retconned all the Old Testament parts where believers were empowered to carry out his nastiness. The very worst of the Bible was limited to specific groups of people who don't even exist anymore. Islam, by contrast, contains dozens of open ended commandments to slaughter nonbelievers, apostates, and freethinkers in general. In short, yes, the moderates are badly ignorant of the nature of their religion, and thankfully so.
Let me tell you a true story, thelife. A coworker of my dad married a Muslim woman, whom I encountered sporadically. She also happened to be one of the nicest people I have ever met. In fact, after my aunt (who was Catholic, btw) died of brain cancer, she brought us some delicious Pakistani food (she was born in Pakistan.) The point is, while it's true that Islam inspires some terrorists, judging all Muslims on that sample would be like judging all Christians on the KKK. (Though thelife probably supports them...)
Mirror, mirror, on the wall. Who talks the most hypocritical trash of all?
Have you read your own holy texts? They're a procession of nightmares. Genocide. Infanticide. Justifying rape and slavery. It's just fucked up.

I wish there was an actual working superlative of "wrong" to describe this.
Yea, you see here is the thing...in the countries where christianity is predominant the religious leaders have to answer to the political ones. In islamic countries there hasn't been that same reformation yet. When the King had to answer to the Pope christianity was every bit as cruel and violent, just minus the modern weapons.

Oh, inferior subhuman, Nazi-loving, inbred, educationally subnormal, cunt-for-brains trailer-trash retard freaks: [b]build an argumental Claymore mine array, and walk right into it [i]yourselves[/i], much?![/b] >:D
"Islam is a violent, dangerous, and backwards theology/philosophy."
Say the ethical humanitarians from Stormfront.
thelife is not only ignorant about Islam, he's also "completely oblivious to what [his] religion actually teaches."
I dare him/her to find one atrocity actually found in the Koran (and I don't mean those fake urban-legend verses) that does not have an equivalent in the Bible.
@Nemo:
Actually, most moderate Muslims are perfectly aware of the awful things their holy book commads. Many Muslims are moderate because they are actively trying to change the religion & drag it out of its barbaric past.
You know, like the Jews did?
It's also typically a fringe group that goes against nearly every tenet of the theology they claim to follow, when Muslims commit atrocities.
Christians, Jews and Muslims worship the same god, and all three versions have about as much maiming, oppressing and killing others in the name of their god, according to their scripture .
You have against Muslims that a fringe group of them follow the commandments to kill, from your joint deity, when you don't dare to do the same?
Anyone who is an adherent of Islam is either a) violent, dangerous, and backwards or b) completely oblivious to what their religion actually teaches.
I live in a country where over 90% of the population is Muslim and they fit into neither category. Islam, you see, can be interpreted in more than one way, and the traditional kind of Islam here has as little to do with what you think Islam is as the Quakers have to do with the Westboro Baptist Church.
you rarely hear of new cases of atrocities committed by them in this day and age.
Visit the Central African Republic and find out what Christians (as well as Muslims) are doing. Visit Myanmar and find out Buddhists get up to. If posters on Stormfront hadn't been so busy denying the genocidal crimes in the former Yugoslavia, you might have learned something about that, too.
"you rarely hear of new cases of atrocities committed by them in this day and age. When you do, it's typically a fringe group that goes against nearly every tenet of the theology they claim to follow."
"rarely hear" enough of it to still be a concern and not nearly rare enough, Christian militias, Christian walled compounds, Christians pushing for theocracies to destroy democratic societies.
"it's typically a fringe group that goes against nearly every tenet of the theology they claim to follow." See above plus the theology is useful for much of the atrocities, Christians have found scripture to support things the law has condemned. You Stormfronters embrace racism and many Fundamentalists still endorse slavery, all Biblical principals well within "your theology".
And, 500 or so years ago (at the same "stage" as Islam is now) ... christians were doing what, exactly?
Oh right, they were murdering and maiming everyone who didn't follow their flavour of mythology!
Fancy that.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
