Default Am I the only Atheist more intimidated my Islam more than Christianity?

Seriously, I see so much hate and sarcasm towards Christians on here. Why? Christians had hardcore beliefs years ago(and some still do, but a VERY small minority) but Muslims STILL have extremely radical beliefs, and you can't deny even moderate Muslims have slightly extreme beliefs. You anti Christians can whine about abortion bombing all you want, but you know that doesn't even compare towards Muslim actions.


I mean yes Christians are silly, they deny evolution, they think Harry Potter is ''demonic'', among other silly beliefs, but they don't go around blowing each other up.....

Islam is the more backward religion in the sense that its followers tend to be more medieval in the way they do it....but in the west dishwasher Christianity is more widespread.

Islam / Christianity are just two sides of the same bent coin.

None of them intimidate me, if they did... I'd be a part of one of those religions. I want them all to stay out of the laws.

Because while Islam may have the higher probability of producing someone who will commit terrorism against me, it's Christians that affect my everyday life.

Using your logic, we should be more intimidated by an asteroid impact than the flu because an asteroid impact kills more people at once. However, the flu does more overall harm than asteroid impacts.

Also, I'm an American atheist. 90% of the people in my country believe this nutty crap, so of course it's going to be something I speak out against more.

I find all religions intimidating, when you delve into it there is very little difference between them.

In this country Christians legislate against the non-Christians to deny rights. The Muslims I know do not.

You haven't met many Muslims, have you?

If you had, you would realize that the mainstream western media focuses only on the radical fringe nutters, and ignores the moderate majority.

Islam and Christianity are exactly the same thing, with only minor differences in beliefs. Both have extremist factions that are equally dangerous to society.

You are right because you chose "common sense" over "political correctness".

There are too many gullible left winged liberals in the west who bend over backwards for Islamic causes. Ironically in Islamic circles these people are referred to as "useful idiots".

The usual replies you hear from these "useful idiots" are the Tu queue type, examples are
Christianity had their crusades so you should keep quite about any terrorist acts commit ed by Muslims
OR
catholic priests molest boys so it is not wrong for Mohammad to marry a 6 year old etc....

How can you be terrified of me? I am already dead. I just wish that had it writing that all of my promised 72 virgins were going to be female.

You may want to learn a little more about Islam the religion verses what you may have learned from the behavior of some people who claim to be acting in the name of Islam, or others who may be trying to demonize a major world religion that millions chose to convert to by their own free will for its goodness and purity. You'll then learn that the majority of these Muslims including the million who are accepting and follow Islam are good decent people who care deeply for their fellow human beings and are not at all what you may currently imagine Muslims to be.

I would humbly suggest you get yourself a decent English translation of the Quran and read it. I'm certain, you'll be surprised by what you learn. After that don't have to become a Muslim, but at least you will understand the religion for what it really is. And you can also ask people here if you have questions. Good luck.

MUSLIMS ARE NOT TERRORISTS/EXTREMEIST!!!! man i am so tired of hearing this crap. Americans plot these bombings so they can go into war with Muslim countries. and every time Christians get the smallest amount of criticism they freak out and have a little fit about how the whole world hates them!!!!!!! can you imagine what it is like for others and stop being so selfish!!!!!!! did you ever notice in the media whenever the criminal is Muslim they make sure to mention that they are Muslim but when they are christian they find no point in mentioning the religion!! look up Raymond Davis and you will find absolutely nothing bad that has happened to him.... look up Dr. Afia Siddiqi (let me guess you don't have a clue who that is... most people don't) and see how much torture america has done on her for doing NOTHING!!!!
