I know ethnic means other than religious beliefs but in this case it somewhat describes what we need to do in America, clean it of Islam.
This from 2004 Suck It Up, Buttercup
Via Captain’s Quarters, who writes today about an article where “Muslim-Americans are complaining about their feelings being hurt by most American’s attitude toward their religion.”
The source of the religion (the Koran) has very serious contradictions in it. It does call for peace; but it also calls on faithful Muslims to kill infidels. Islam has not been able to bring itself out of the 17th century. Part of its problem is that any punk can become an Iman or “holy man” and all develop their own following and interpretation of the Koran (and the Koran is open to many, many interpretations). There is no centralization or concensus on what the essence of the religion is. Some claim “jihad” is an internal and individual struggle; others—well, you know how others interpret it. And, the most distressing thing to me is that American Muslims (and Canadian, and European etc.), who live in a free country and could begin to question and debate these issues don’t. There is the quality of playing the sheep that is encouraged in this religion. Dissent is not tolerated. Instead of beginning to question the extremists of their religion, American Muslims appear to spend most of their time worrying about how their countrymen view their religion. Instead of condemning the violent actions of these extremists, American Muslims invite them to speak in their mosques. Instead of taking responsibility for their religion and what it is doing in the world, American Muslims are well on their way to parleying their status into “victimhood” and are demanding that they not be subjected to having their feelings hurt. Well, as Captain Ed says so eloquently above, “Suck it up, buttercup.” I’m ready to live and let live —but only when I know that your religion stands on the side of civilization, freedom and individual rights (including women’s rights). You will be the equal of Christianity and Judaism (and any other religion) when you have condemned the evil within your ranks and expunged it from your religious tracts and schools. Until then, don’t expect much respect from me. - Dr. Sanity
