You know there was a certain German leader in the middle of the 20th century who also quite liked Islam for how violent it was compared to Christianity!

Na dude, we in the West know exactly what you are. Some Brit rambling about how Islam is actually OK isn't going to change anyone's mind. After seeing the protests in Britain, it is clear that Britain has far too many foreign born residents, it looks exactly like a rally in Pakistan. Not a lot of native Brits there. Good thing you guys chose Britain to try and change their foreign policy, they are a declining power where everything is falling apart as their share of global GDP shrinks.

It is in the US. Go off. It will make you look extremely simple minded and anyone with a modicum of success will disassociate themselves form you, but you are 100% fine to do it legally!

@abuhijjra - Why are you talking about the crusades? Are you a bot?

We just dont like your belief system, it is really bad and it is partly responsible for why you guys are so backwards.

@revpadma - No, it isn't a mystery at all. You realize we in the West are quickly becoming majority atheist, ya? We already had cultures which were completely incompatible, but now there will be an even bigger rift between us. You guys still act like its the 7th century, you practice your religion like Europeans from the Middle Ages practiced Christianity. Then we had the Enlightenment and secularization, and the divide has been growing since. You won't ever catch up until you modernize your culture, but I expect you guys to cling to it even tighter until it is completely undeniable that your religion is keeping you weak compared to everyone else. You guys will have a really hard time giving up a myth which makes Arabs front and center, even saying God told people to only read his words in Arabic, hahaha. You guys just don't have a clue, you are proud of all the wrong things, you think your stubbornness in places like Palestine is a show of strength, but to the rest of the world it perfectly encapsulates why you people will always stay underdeveloped. You are hot heads with little logic going into to your thinking. So, no, it is not a mystery why you are portrayed the way you are. It is because it is the truth. The only people who support in the West you have an ideology which is completely incompatible with yours, they just support you because of a brain dead ideology about oppression and needing to be a white savior to minorities. It is all so comical. The truth is, it is only going to get worse until it gets better, because you guys are nowhere near ready to move on from Islam or at least have a movement equivalent to the Enlightenment.

How could one be Islamophobic? Islam says I, as an atheist, should be killed. Therefore, I vehemently oppose Islam out of self preservation if nothing else. I think Muslims are following a bad ideology which has doomed them to poor living standards and a very anti-intellectual culture. Is that Islamophobia? Because they are all 100% valid criticisms, and telling me I need to respect people who want me dead, lets just say I won't be amenable to that solution.

@chantjelly6773 - Yep, it would be quite insane not to have a healthy dose of fear for Islam. As an atheist, I know that my head would not stay on my shoulders were I to state my beliefs in a Muslim country. They are among the most intolerant people on the planet, yet they utilized the tolerance of the West to gain a foothold until the demographics change enough, then they won't be doing the whole oppression olympics song and dance, then they will just straight up demand the country is run like they want it to be run. Similar to Israel/Palestine. Initially, the Arab countries used very little language about being an oppressed people. They were belligerent and said they would straight up destroy Israel because they were stronger, and Jews would never be welcome to create a country alongside Arab people. Then, as they were humiliated time and time again, they had no choice but to try and paint themselves as righteous victims, it was the only strategy they had left. Well, not the only strategy, they could have opted for peaceful development in an open and tolerant environment, allowing Israel to exist, but we all know they won't take that option unless every other option has been thoroughly exhausted. The pathetic thing is how young and naive Westerners actually believe these sob stories and propaganda. They think that supporting such an archaic and violent culture is actually the most moral thing one can do in this situation! It is funny as hell watching LGBT people support Palestine when they would be killed were they to campaign for their own rights in Palestine. There are just so many easily manipulated people in the world, intelligence seems to be a rare commodity these days.

You expect Muslims to actually criticize themselves? They woulnd't be so underdeveloped if they could honestly criticize themselves and improve! What they are going to do is blame the West and anyone else who isn't themselves, so they will feel great while they stay backwards!

Well, here is the problem bud, the West is fast becoming atheist. Your silly myths will only make you guys look like illogical cave men more and more as time goes on. We won't be majority Christian soon, all those religions will just be viewed the same as Greek myths. For millions and millions of Americans, they already are.

@abuhijjra - Who is He? Are you saying I probably liked the crusades?
1
@abuhijjra - Yes, as in inherently more violent, meaning it has far more potential to motivate a population to be violent. In any event, I notice when talking to Muslims they bring up stuff from thousands of years ago quite frequently, and frankly, it is weird. Going on about the Muslim Golden Age, talking about the crusades, etc.. I think it is because Islam can't change, so it keeps Arab/other culture frozen. There is a reason Muslims don't invent stuff and instead rely on the West to buy new technology from. You need an open, pluralistic, and liberal democracy if you ever want to advance and challenge the West.

@abuhijjra - Islam is more violent inherently, Jesus is a much different figure than Mohammed. They are not interchangeable religions, with far different and far reaching second order knock on effects of each. Christianity revolutionized Europe after being adopted.

Its a book of myths dude. Look at how the West is basically atheist, because they use logic instead of the wisdom of a 7th century warlord. We also don't drink camel pee to treat illnesses, you know, because we use our brains? You guys truly don't understand how barbaric you look to the West, do you?
1
That is all a myth dude, it is embarrassing you are believing stories from an illiterate 7th century warlord, lol. No wonder your countries are so far behind, you truly think Islam will guide you to prosperity! The only prosperous Arab countries are archaic monarchies that had to pay the West to build everything to just dig up oil from the ground. If you guys don't have that cheat code, you are unable to build a prosperous society. Why would anyone want to migrate to a Muslim country which treats its minorities 100x worse than Western liberal democracies?
