(48,181 posts)islamic extremism I think it is only fair that we also demand that each christian explicitly denounce each act of christian extremism. Have you denounced the Colorado Springs attack?
When we stop treating all muslims as responsible for the actions of any muslim I will be fine with not treating all christians as responsible for the actions of any christian.
And yes this is satire, but it is serious satire. We have many people who call themselves Democrats joining in the call for overt discrimination against muslims because of the Paris attacks. I am appalled at that, even while I refuse to go off the other cliff of proclaiming that groups like ISIS are somehow not motivated by their religious beliefs. But I am even more appalled at the staggering hypocrisy of our almost complete societal refusal to address the fact that we have our own religious extremists here in the good old USA, and they are overwhelmingly christian, not muslim.
