Farrakhan says lots of nasty things about Christians, and is condemned for it. Some here say nasty things about Muslims, and are celebrated/given a pass. Wassup wit dat?
Imagine if someone started calling Baptists or Methodists or Christians in general things like...
Satan's Disciples, Boil on the World's Butt, a
Cancer.... referring to churches as
Satan's Den.. that sort of thing - how might that be received?
When Powederman "sounds off" about Muslims, we listen.
That's akin to listening to Farrakhan discuss white evangelicals, with any expectation of getting objective, accurate info - don't you think?
Do you know of anything good about a Muslim?
I've not know an awful lot of Muslims - I'm in NC, they're relatively rare outside university & a cab - but I've known a couple Muslims through work, they were alright folks. And I worked with a Muslim guy from India - fine fellow.
MIKE - do you have
personal experience with Muslims? Has your experience led you to believe that they're evil, and that they deserve nasty rhetoric directed towards them? Forget what you read in the papers and by some wackjob on the web with a personal vendetta -
do you personally know any Muslims, and how has that informed your view of Muslims generally?I stand by what I posted. The language & clear contempt/hatred for Muslims some use here, ain't that far from what you'd get from Calypso Louie Farrakhan.
perhaps you can contact moderator & ask that my post be removed, if it offends you. Or you could reconsider your position.
