Suggest less than 1% of a Billion and a half followers is representative of the whole religion, brehs.


Can we stop this myth? Yea, most Muslims are not ISIS or violent extremists, but how many of them are like Jerry Falwell or Pat Robertson? How many agree that a Muslim woman shouldn't be allowed to marry a non-Muslim man for example? Or pre-marital sex should be outlawed? Questions like the preceding one have nothing to do with ISIS or violence but it's still a valid question to ask of any religious group. Non-violent conservative religious people still yield dangerous power, as evident by the Christian Right in the United States. Or in Ireland, where women have died because they couldn't get an abortion to save their lives. Or Orthodox Jewish communities where women get treated like property.

It's not a myth to the myth makers who created PR campaigns all day long to gain support around their cause. Right now ISIS has had more tv, newspapers, videos blasted on every single media outlet in the last 4 months that it creates a spiral wheel of propaganda. Right now so many Americans are stupid enough to believe every story placed on a media site is true to the t.

Let me know when the generations of people who grow up on the television have ever strayed away from it.

You didn't address one single point I made in my comment. Do you wish to now?

Right. You just adopt the opposite of every talking point and pretend to be enlightened.

Mind you, you're in here defending ISIS and Islam at length.

Do you, fukk boy.

I can't defend ISIS, It's a creation of U.S. Foreign Policy. Now continue on your ignorant way child.
