No, he's not.

Maybe not numerous. But certainly much more than other religions - even though the absolute numbers are still small. That is a cause of concern.

Why can't people just admit that?

I didn't know that there was anyone with any credibility saying it's not a cause for concern.

What,at least some people are unhappy with is the concerted smear efforts being directed against *all* 1.6 billion Muslims because there is a small number of that 1.6 billion who are ignorant, murderous assholes.

Where were apologists like yourselves when abortion clinics were being bombed, gay rights being threatened, gay marriage being opposed, women's rights threatened, school prayer, creationism being forced in schools etc. ,

not there perhaps because in your mind the perpetrators represented all of christianity which you were more than happy to point out to anyone when discussing religion and mocking their beliefs,

yet here you are apologizing/defending one of the most misogynistic, homophobic, anti free speech, anti separation of religion from state, religion there is today,

the very same secular principles/laws which allow you to defend yourself and criticize/mock without fear the very christians you hate,

You call yourselfs liberals but it appears you are nothing more than cowardly fair weather liberals who sing a different tune when confronted with a religion that will slap you down when you mock it, degrade it, criticize it in the same manner you have been doing to christianity,

even to the point of looking to compromise some of the very fundamental rights we enjoy under secularism like freedom of speech,

You are no different than those that blame the women for rape because of the attire they were wearing, the party they went to or the street they chose to walk down.

You sir, are a twit.

People arguing that it being a small number in relation to the sheer amount of muslims are out of their minds, that makes it even worse. It should be alarming that there are a quarter million people that have no issues with, as a matter of fact encourage, visiting violence on westerners and people holding western ideals. Just because it a "small" percentage of the overall muslim population doesn't mean shit.

Why do you continue to lie?

I don't.

Your continual working on behalf of ISIS, and Islamic terrorists. Once you stop, I'll stop calling you out on it. But I doubt that day will ever happen, because your willfully choosing ignorance and fantasy.

So what's the answer? Round up all Muslims worldwide and give them the choice to convert Christianity or die?

No, how about stop slaughtering innocent adults and kids because they insult the pedophile for watching soccer games.

They seem to be doing fine, apparently someone has been attacking them though for wearing hijabs.
Are you one of the attackers? Or do you think of it as defending?

oh look another liberal hypocrite. Why don't you rip some of your buddies? Why do you have a hard on for me?

You do nothing to give me a hard on. Stop fantasizing.

I also notice though that you didn't deny that you choose to be willfully ignorant. :)

I think your worry that to all agree, as we logically are compelled to, that there is a certain percentage if Muslims who are prone to violence because of their religion means that we next start rounding up all muslims is unreasonable. Your unwillingness to agree that there is something inherently wrong with certain practices of Islam is as incomplete as those who believe all muslims are compelled to violence.

Have you been drinking Moonbeam's coffee. I think all people including Muslims who practice true Islam do not agree with/nor condone what extremist are doing in the name of Islam. You will also have to forgive them for not taking time to march in protest of the extremist as they have to provide for their families which is far more important that proving something to bigoted Christians throughout the world.

No, I don't endorse any bigoted people of any religion. I'm wise enough to realize there are bigoted assholes on either side though most bigots from either side are too stupid to realize they're no different than the evil bigots on the other side.

I've told my neighbors that are Muslims they need to march down the street today when Christian families are coming home and they should be chanting the following:

Herpy derpy derp
Bad Muslims are bad
Herpy derpy derp
Bad Muslims are bad

And yet, OP is the 1st to whine about broad sweeping comments based on the actions of a few, when people who represent his views are criticized.
