But Trump has sexually assaulted at least 11 women and just admitted fraud screwing students at Trump University. I guess when the Orange One does it, no problem with you, huh?

I wasn't aware he owned the Washington Post, otherwise I would have boycotted them a long time ago. Not so much because of them being anti-Trump, but any new outlet must be held to account for not being neutral and balanced.

Not who you were talking to, but if you take the teachings and life of the Prophet Muhammad at face value, it does in fact outright encourage such acts.

Including getting big breasted babes in heaven for killing infidels.

72 Virgins - WikiIslam

I disagree with the Alt-Left that considers it bigoted to factually point out that ISIS and similar terrorists are reading Islam's holy words literally.

And if you took the bible literally you would find some pretty raunchy stuff there too but I really don't want to engage you in this discussion, it will not lead to any logical conclusion and will just be filled with nonsense about the 'alt-left' whatever the heck that is. So with that said, I hope you have a good evening

As opposed to those who thought killing homosexuals, adulterers, fornicators, and non-believers was OK because the Bible said so?

Okay but the Branch Davidians read the bible and came to some pretty bizarre conclusions. They died in the Waco compound.

Jim Jones was a Methodist preacher for a time. Responsible for over 900 deaths

FLDS promotes child rape and polygamy.

And that is not ever reaching back more than 20 or 30 years YET we don't paint all Christians as these folks were.

Doubtless Islamic Radicalism is a huge issue the world over. It's ideology backwards and violent. However the two most populated Muslim countries - Indonesia and India are largely very peaceful. Let's try not to generalize too much lest we sound discriminatory.

Me too!! It's just another way to shut down any conversation. I don't care what people's personal beliefs are as long as they aren't murderous, if they make a good product I will buy it. People have different opinions, and I can respectfully listen and even sometimes get swayed by their views. Shutting down speech means you don't want to grow or expand your minds. To me, this is one of the aspects I hate about the SJW who get people fired for some perceived insult or unproven accusation.

I don't think you want to ask these people that question, the answer may shock you.
