Oh believe me, I noticed that! Anyone claiming that terrorist attacks around the globe are being done today, by any except Muslims is a Muslim apologetic, trying to BS others.

Is a school shooting a terrorist attack ? Was Timothy McVeigh muslim ? Are Tibetan Buddhist monks who self-immolate terrorists ? Was Saddam Hussein the most evil man in the last 50 years ?

It's all in the labeling and that is not apologizing for the crazy islamic radicals who kill innocent people.

No those are absolutely not terrorists, or terrorist actions. A lone psychopath like the mass shooters is not acting according to a terrorist organization's agenda. For them, it is strictly 'personal'.


The Radical Muslim terrorists have a worldwide global agenda to install a worldwide caliphate!

Yes, but it is culturally insensitive to believe what they say with their own mouths and let alone discuss it.

It is bigoted to point out that these extremists are reading the Quran literally.

The only proper response is to ignore the extremists and shout at those who don't ignore extremists as being the true bigots with generalizations that they hate all Muslims everywhere.

Those follow as terrorist acts, they do not have to be a part of some terrorist organization to classify as terrorism.

There are only two possibilities:

Either the entire news media, all over the world, is conspiring to defame the good name of Islam
OR
Islam truly is a vile religion which stands exposed in front of the world.

Read 1984, it is good to pick a common enemy to focus on so the masses miss who the real enemy is.

Religious violence committed by believers must be differentiated as;
1. Religious-related violence - by believers who act on their own


2. Religion-inspired violence - by believers who are inspired by the immutable holy texts of the religion
1. Religious-related violence
as with human nature, there will always be a percentile of people of evil prone people in any large group of people. Thus religions are no exceptions.
This is why we have buddhists in myanmar and elsewhere committing terrible violence on other believers, but there is no way any buddhist can use their holy texts as an excuse to commit their crimes. Thus we cannot blame buddhism as the cause of violence committed by some buddhists.


This is the same for christianity which has an overriding pacifist maxim, i.e. 'love your enemies' 'give the other cheeks' etc. Therefore christians who commit evils are not inspired by jesus but rather due their own inherent evil impulse which they cannot control.

It is the same for hinduism [note vedanta], taoism and other eastern religions.


Even if they contain any evil laden elements, they are minimal and not catalytic to influence and inspire their believers to commit evil as a direct sanction by their god or holy texts.




2. Religion-inspired violence
religious-inspired violence are those violence committed by the believers who are inspired directly by the holy texts of their respective religion.
At present the most prevalent incidents of religion-inspired violence is from islam because in the quran >55% in its 6,236 verses contain evil laden elements of various degrees. 300++ verses are attributable to jihad against infidels.
the proofs of this is the thousands of incidents that has been committed by evil prone muslims as inspired by the violent verses in the quran. Note the video above and this;








exactly!

Urban, take a look at this Bill Maher panel discussion. Maher makes the very points that many are thinking. It's not about hysteria, it's not about liberal versus conservative.
