Is The Christian Right Morally Equivalent To The Taliban? By Damon Whitsell

The following graphic was left on a new friends FaceBook page by a visitor here. It is exemplary of how some Liberals, Atheist, Humanist, and other non-Christians are willing to go to absurd lengths of equivalence to obfuscate the issue of Islamic terrorism and the “Civilization Jihad” that is Islam – and this puts us all in jeopardy. Please take a moment to read the graphic, I’ll continue my commentary on these absurd comparisons below.....

.......This graphic might be more appropriately named “Comparing the Tea Party to the Taliban” (because the poster said,, “Sound familar??, Who does the TEA Party remind YOU of?”, and “they are one in the same!!”) or it could be named “Comparing Christianity and Islam”,, but even that has problems because not all on the “far right” are Christian and not all Christians are on the far right. Many Christians are liberals these days. But it is guaranteed that all Taliban are the same in ideology and purpose, no matter what you want to call it. The use of loaded terms is a small problem compared to the actual comparisons employed. Lets look at a few. The first absurd comparison that jumped of the graphic at me was…..

1.”vilify gay people”

Taliban – “Kill gay people outright” VS. Christian Right Wingers – “Pray the gay away” & “put gays people in electrified pens until they die”

Is the AntiChrist Left morally equivalent to the National Socialist German Workers' Party?

Are blogpimps morally equivalent to dog turds?

Well, considering we don’t force conversion on fear of death, we allow people to change to another religion if they want to, we don’t impose 2nd class citizenship taxes on non-christians, we don’t have scripture that allows us to lie to people if we think it is good for our God (ends justify the means), we don’t have honor killing as part of our religion, we don’t regard Jews and other religions as pigs, we don’t just remain civil until our numbers rise where we can start demanding changes because of our religion, we don’t have countries where only our religion is allowed, we don’t cause riots and mayhem if our societies losers make fun of our Lord Jesus Christ, and generally losers in our society who continually slam us do so because they are not afraid Christians to go all jihad on their asses.

So no, they are not anywhere near the moral equivalent of each other.

I would be inclined to say “Yes!” to both those questions, with only a slight boost in status for the dog turds.

Taliban is closer to Environmental Terrorist than Christians

When the Christian right starts strapping bombs onto the mentally disadvantaged, children and pregnant women get back to me then we will talk otherwise STF up.

THANKS FOR YOUR REPLIES EVERYONE!!!

[Happy Rain]

Rhetorical question.

[freedomfiter2]

No. The Taliban is closer to the moral equivalent of human sacraficing satanists.

[servo1969]

Not sure. Have there been any films of Christian Right Wingers cutting off people’s heads lately?

[Ocean_Living]

So no, they are not anywhere near the moral equivalent of each other.

Didn't there used to be a lot of Mormons that posted on this board?

they are not afraid Christians to go all jihad on their asses.

Really?

[Secret Agent Man]

If you can’t tell the difference between death by jihad and verbal arguments you are hopeless.

I am not much for details on history but i have heard that the Jews got accused of all kinds of things just before the extermination started.
