ORIGINAL: LadyConstanze Islamophobia works on the stupid quite well, especially people who haven't read the koran or the bible, or even compared them, when it comes to violence the koran has NOTHING on the bible... the violence you refer to in the bible is the historical record of the old testament; they are not the prescription by which Christians today are admonished to live. to my knowledge, the same cannot be said about the Koran, where explicit commandments involving "violence" are still in practice today. liberals are fond of (unjustly & wrongly) accusing Christians of adhering to some parts of the bible while ignoring others. in my experience that is often founded in their, that is the liberals', ignorance of the bible and the difference between the testaments. its happily ironic they are not looking at the moderate muslims and telling them the same thing. quote:
ORIGINAL: LadyConstanze Some people are incapable of learning from history that, is a common and extremely well deserved criticism by conservatives of liberals. quote:
Islamophobia whatever liberals don't like--they attach a name to it to turn it into a pejorative. unfortunately, when they do that, since they tend to see everything in terms of race, gender, sexual orientation, class, etc, and believe conservatives are racists, sexists, etc, etc, they are incapable of even hearing or understanding the actual legitimate arguments, positions and values the other side has.
