I can’t understand how muslims can hang on to 12th century crap. We quit burning witches ( but I’d bring that back for Nancy Pelosi), we don’t have a KKK, and we don’t keep women from voting and wearing sexy clothes. Why don’t those backwards thinking religion of peace zealots set their clocks ahead and try to blend in with modern civilization?

Maybe you don’t understand that they are completely modern, in fact they use the tools of modernism to attack modernism itself, and modernism was founded on religious traditions and the notion of utopia. People still get murdered we are not living in utopia many people are silenced and killed for all governments and various religions ,even to this day some people are still “crucified” literally! Our governemnt tortures people, doesn’t that sound like 12th century crap? Nobody has any claim to being “modern” and the right to claim “exceptionalism” to the rest of the planet, though that doesn’t mean we maybe the most barbaric, but we are barely out of the jungle and in no position to claim superiority to anyone, though I think we are far more tolerant than others, we are still not a “utopia” and usually thinking or hoping for one leads to millions being slaughtered.
