Islamic Fundamentalism is nothing like Christian Fundamentalism. It supports terrorism and shari'ah law and millions practice it.

WB is all talk. And we DID separate the KKK from Christianity (and stopped their group lynchings and everything). Your move Islam.

Awful groups, but an awful comparison too. KKK & Westboro don't hold a candle to ISIS.

Fire and Brimestone Christian groups are the minority. In Islam, they're the majority.

Even those do not preach murder of non-believers , its simply two completely different things . killing people =/= preaching against sin

It is the whole reason that they, NOT isis, is that they are the ones being intolerant of Western culture and serve the public death penalty

To people only because they speak out against Islam, they are American, they are gay, or disagree with Islamic practices in any form

Wake up people! This is the reason mass immigration will never work with them, they simply cannot accept our culture and our way of life

This is such a dumb comparison
bobdole12122
On everyone needs to stop. Islam is, if you study it, the most violent religion. Not saying all Muslims are violent, but at the core of the
bobdole12122
..belief itself is a violent teaching. Many other religions (in fact almost all) aare not. But the Koran teaches murder and oppression....
bobdole12122
And no true scholar of the book itself will tell you I'm wrong. Again, not saying every Muslim follows the violent doctrine, but it's there.
DroolingHomer
we get that there's psychos of all religions. fact is, quaran tells it's followers to convert unbelievers by the sword. Bible does not

It is against Islam to force someone into the religion.

It is against the religion. Some might be trying to force others into it, that doesn't mean that it is right. It is wrong.

It is against Islam to force someone into the religion. Period. It's clearly written in the Quran several places.
tupactopus
You mean the beginning? The part where Muhammad was not a powerful, warmongering, terrorist?

Or the later part (the one you're supposed to follow) where you either pay a 90% tax or die for not converting?
Aquick20dollars
Jizya tax to be exact. The usual rejoinder is that Muslims have to pay the Zakat tax. Jizya is a much higher % though
674e031f7dbd1f14bdc9160468379d78e6fcb32c97b2e40fe00e35376336373
But they're not separate, the WBC and KKK are direct results of extreme Christian ideology, same with ISIS and Islam.

Pretty sure majority of Muslims are not sympathizing with any extremists. Isis has attacked and killed more Muslims than anyone else

IS is less than 100000 people out of 1.7 billion Muslims. If there were a significant number of sympathizers, you'd know about it.

They've been asked about it already. The majority thinks apostates, those who leave Islam, should be killed, as well as homosexuals. Get it?

Not all Muslims support Isis, but a vast, VAST majority believe in the death of gays and the covering of women.

I haven't seen that video, but I can assure you, compared to the middle east, malaysia's Islam is VERY moderate.
ashmenon
Sure, there are movements to try and make it more fundamentalist, but the majority population are fine with it as is.
dachichi
but in Malaysia homosexuality is still outlawed with a prison 20 year sentence, so yeah it is moderate compared to the death sentence.
ashmenon
True, but that prison sentence is rarely enforced. The notable case I've heard of was largely politically motivated.
dachichi
even thought Malaysia is classed as a "Islamic state" the leading political party represents non-muslims followed by socialist parties.
Morrigi
Compared to Western liberal democracies it's still full of hateful bigotry. It is not acceptable to imprison gay people because they are gay

What would you define as moderate, then?

Accepting equal rights for women, homosexuals, and non-Muslims.

Islamic fundamentalists do a great deal more harm than Christian fundamentalists though.

Obviously its bad if both groups do it. But implying its a Muslim problem rather than a problem across demographics is ludicrous
