    Islam is a hateful religion. It’s fair to bash hate. Paradox of tolerance and all that.

      All religions are hateful.

      The right targets one religion, compounding xenophobia for political gains, while preaching Jesus. Even Judaism can’t be seen as peaceful anymore because of its link to Israel.

      It’s clear the article is meant to drum up hate. Only an idiot would fall for this bullshit.

        Pray for your enemies. Turn the other cheek. The master should rule as a servant. The first should be the last, the last first. There is no Jew, nor Greek, man, or woman in Christ. Measure for measure. There is your daily dose of religion.

          Not really what the article is preaching which is kind of my point. To be fair, it isn’t what religious leaders are saying either but that’s an other conversation entirely.

          Yes because it fully applies. This article would still be hateful if it talked about any other religion and implying one particular religion is more harmful then the rest, as to maliciously target a minority for political gain is gross.

          It’s ironic because there’s only one religion that is actively trying to convert me and throwing around it’s weight to pass disgusting laws in my country. And it’s the one using Islam as a scape goat.

      You’re looking at the most extreme members of the religion and assuming that’s the norm. Christianity and Judaism don’t look great when you do that either. By that standard, all religions are religions of hate
