The world is going to tear itself apart with Islam hate

What is your point? You have not addressed any of the issues raised by the poster you replied to.

Also I find it strange how when a priest was stabbed in France, people went ballistic (rightfully so). But no one batted an eyelid when an Imam was stabbed outside a mosque in New York. Funny how things work like that

Absolutely

And think about it - if everyone converted to Islam, there'd be no need for terrorism.

So Islam is the cure for terrorism!

Checkmate islamophobes

Maybe if you would live in your native countries and leave us alone

Islamophobia is different from well informed criticism of Islam. The former refers to the irrational phobia of those who associate themselves with Islam, the latter is perfectly justified. When people become scared to sit next to a person wearing a headscarf on a bus, when people shoot ordinary Muslims outside mosques like they did in New York and when people feel they have a right to question your personal beliefs in public in order to humiliate you- that is Islamophobia.

It is so hard to be a Muslim nowadays, but let it be known that no matter how much hate the newspapers write and how much hate is then spewed out from the public, clearly the faith of Muslims is stronger.

Finally, you can't say Islamophobia doesn't exist until you know what it feels to experience any of the above and much worse. Ask your friends who are Muslim and try to understand is all I can say.

incriminating all Muslims with the actions of a tiny amount

is not criticising a religion - that is hating the religion.

Hating the religion causes more problems, it alienates the malleable members of the community, which segregates them and essentially makes them more likely to sympathise with radical ideas.

going around persecuting ordinary Muslims

who have the common decency to follow Islam while respecting our own culture

I've been to the heart of Muslim communities...and they are friendlier than the average white person in the UK

Please, stop stirring up religious hatred every time there is a terrorist attack.

You are not criticising the religion by instantly incriminating Islam with any Middle-Easterner doing an attack - you are plainly hating on it,

these people don't just 'snap' and turn into killers because they want to defend Islam, they do it because something ****ty has happened in their lives and they want to harm as many people as possible,

and they find comfort in radical / extremist Islam because it legitimises their hateful feelings.

Ah, the ubiquitous straw man of the ill-informed apologist. The only people who air this claim (all Muslims are terrorists) are a few right-wing nutjobs and apologists for Islam. But I guess it's easier to rail against than "Islamic ideology is a major factor in Islamist terrorism, and Islamic sectarianism is a major factor in the situation in the Middle East".

Why is it unacceptable to oppose (or even hate) something that you find unacceptable (or even abhorrent)?

Ah, the old "don't criticise Islam because it just turns peaceful Muslims into Islamist terrorists" argument.
Why doesn't criticising Christianity, Judaism, Neo-Cons, Marxists, Greens, etc, etc, also turn them into violent extremists?
Without the passages that explicitly endorse or encourage violence against those who oppose Islam, it would be more difficult to convince them to be violent against those who oppose Islam. To claim that pointing out that Islam contains passages that promote violence, oppression and discrimination encourages Muslims to be violent, oppressive and discriminatory is putting the cart before the horse. Admittedly, there may be some Muslims who are unaware of the "bad bits" until they are pointed out by critics, but that is not the responsibility of the critic.
Do you blame the doctor who tells a patient they have cancer?

You make it sound like this is some sort of national sport. Muslims in Britain are probably as safe, and have have as many rights, as they are anywhere in the world.

Trouble with this statement is that it is not supportable. I have no problem with people separating themselves by one means or another - I don't think it's healthy, but it's up to them. However, to claim that following Islam and respecting liberal secular democratic ideals are compatable is simply false.

If you follow Islam, you believe that the Quran is the literal and perfect word of god. unchangable and acceptable in its entirety. That is not open to debate, it is a strict requirement.
If you believe that about the Quran, then you believe that husbands may beat disobedient wives, women inherit half the man's share, women's testimony is worth less, that slavery is acceptable, that using female captives for sex is acceptable, that non-Muslims are lesser people, that homosexuality should be punished, that consensual adult lovers should be flogged, etc, etc (all under appropriate conditions!)

Obviously, the majority of Muslims do not practice these things, but they still believe that they are valid and acceptable rules.

Again, you present the fallacious "I shall use limited personal experience to generalise the whole, but I shall criticise anyone else who does the same but arrives at a different conclusion" argument.

If you are going to use the example of a small number of specific Muslims to represent Islam, you cannot complain when others do the same.

I will continue to criticise religions on the basis of their illogicality, lack of reason and threat to the progress of civilisation, terrorit attack or none, if it's all the same with you.
Hope that's ok. Wouldn't want you getting upset and all terroristy. (Yes, I know that you claim not to be a Muslim, but I am still attacking and ridiculing your position and belief, so surely your argument still applies. Or is it only criticising the violent elements of Islam that makes people violent?)

If a perpetrator explicitly uses Islamic ideology as a justification for their actions, it is only reasonable to accept that the ideology played some part in their actions.
However, apportioning of blame and criticising the content of the idology are two different issues.

Have you actually attempted to examine the actions, behaviour, causes and justifications such attackers use, rather than just chatting ****?
Why are there so many attackers who did not have *****y lives? Who are eductated, comfotable, 2nd and 3rd generation citizens of secular democtracies?

Exactly. It allows them to carry out appaling acts because they believe that their god permits or even encourages it. And they do this because the permission and encouragement is explicitly there in their holy scriptures, but many were not aware of it because they are taught a cherry-picked and sanitised version, engineered to be compatable with western society. But it's not what Allah wants, and when they become aware of it, they feel that they have been deceived.

A telling excerpt from this Radio 4 discussion was the imam who was brought in to a prison to talk to a Muslim inmate who was spreading radicalisation, with the intention of explaining to him where and why he was wrong. The imam came out of the room looking worried and admitted "he's got a point".

The ideology isn't dangerous to the excessive majority of Muslims, its dangerous in the hands of hateful, radicalised individuals who find that it legitimises their hateful feelings.

Do you consider the ideology of Mein Kampf to be dangerous?
Would you excuse those who claim it is the ultimate, perfect book because they weren't actively involved in the Final Solution?
Are those people who only know the bits about welfare, social improvement and infrastructure reconstruction more representative of National Socialism than those who also support expansionist nationalism and racial scapegoating?

Ironically, you are presenting the NRA's argument against gun control, so I guess that you oppose any restrictions on the availability of guns and ammunition because most gun owners aren't mass murderers.

If Islam encourages hateful feelings, then how come my own personal experience of Muslim communities

has been perhaps better than my experience of white communities in the UK?

Its a myth that Islam promotes violence against every single westerner,

but the Quran isn't a literal book saying "Kill anyone who disagrees", in fact its quite the opposite.

And no, the fundamentalists are not the best representatives of the ideology, they manipulate what the religion says to justify their hateful feelings. Otherwise we would live in a world with many more violent Muslims, but right now it is a tiny minority.

They aren't 'wholly incompatible', we have millions of Muslims living in Europe, the UK and the USA who have never done a harmful thing to their society..

Except there is no literal interpretation that exists for some of these things, holy scriptures written 1500 years ago in a completely different society are ambiguous.
This is why many Muslims have the decency to interpret the Quran with their own peaceful aspirations.

Islamaphobia is arguably what alienates some of the potential future malleable young individuals into perpetrators, I think worrying about Islam hate or hate against Muslims is entirely warranted.

A lot of the verses of the quran e.g. the one saying to kill all the non believers is actually to be interpreted contexually. Please research the topic you're writing about before commenting.

Hate is path to evil, avoid hating anyone, even your enemies.

An example would be a Muslim-only area where other cultures aren't welcome and they actively evade society.
This doesn't happen.

Well done, really well done! Mixing culture with religion. Where in islam does it say muslims cannot integrate with society? They just happen to be Muslims. Good comment mate, well done!

With the omission of two, somewhat emotive words, this is pretty much the case in parts of many European cities.
