I've noticed a disturbing double-standard trend in Liberal/leftist/freethought circles. A tendency to have no issues w/completely obliterating the Christian faith, whilst defnding the Islamic one. Both faiths have so-called holy-books which condemn all other people and religions; both have been responisible due to those books for tons of repression,oppression,and suffering and death; but because of the unfair treatment that some Muslima have recieved in North America since 9/11, they AND THER absolutist/dangerous FAITH get their assec personally and collectviely kised by the very same groups and people whom attack Christinad and Christianity w/out shame!
I find this to be disgusting. Listen up freethinkers,secularists,lovers of democracy,faithless people,Leftsist,liberals,etc; quit the double-standrd!!! Hve an equal distatse for Islam{and all other revealed religions} that you have for Christians/christianity-or leave the Christians/Christianity alone.
Of course, if you know lots about and have former experience w/one of these faiths{ex: christianity} than w/the others-that's understandable that you would go after the faith you know well and not go after the others; but to attack one and actually go uot of your way to defend{not just leave alone for most part} the others is utterly hypocritical.
For fucks sakes!!! Use your brains people!!!
Fairness in attack, or fairness in defending{if you know the all well-enough}, but not "Oh,Christianity is so evil and must be stopped" and "Islam is'nt an enemy". like for christs sakes dumbasses-pull your heads outa your own shitty sphincters.
ALL "REVEALED" RELIGION IS AN EQUAL THREAT TO DEMOCRACY,FREETHOUGHT,OUR EVOLUTION AND PROGRESSION!!! To defend to soem degree Liberl christians or Liberal Islamics,etc, is somewhat understandble-as they want democracy rather than theocracyt too{allthough in disobedeince to their own faiths}, but then make it clear-attack only fun-less-mentalism{fundamentalism} and not blanket Christianity, defend liberal Christianity AND liberal Islam; but choose.
I for one hate all forms of revealed religion, fundamenaltist or liberal, liberal faith just helps to keep the fundamentalists afloat by viryte of promoting the fundamentlaist books of revealed faith and re-intrpreting them whilst saying the fundies are'nt "true" and the fundies claim the same of the liberal,a nd the cycle does'nt end.
I do appreciate and enjoy the company of and respect as fellow democratic freethinker{whom should take the next logical step and drop the faith alltoegther instead of promoting it and causinf more confusion, but whatever} liberl Christians/muslism, but I strongly dislike{and hate some} fundamentalists.
I would only defned Liberal christians and muslims, but not liberal chritsinaity or islam themselves.
Anyways,
like I said, stop this "Christianity is the enemy" "Islam is our friend" crap!!!
