Many liberal politicians have become outright apologists for Islam. Hillary Clinton recently called for people to stop using even the term “radical Islam” because it is offensive to Muslims. She does not want the word Islam attached to any act of terror — as she puts it, “Muslims have nothing to do with terrorism.” This is a woman so desperate to make rationalizations for the religion that when a Muslim kills 14 people in cold blood, she insists he had nothing to do with himself killing 14 people in cold blood. The people were killed not by a Muslim, but apparently by some disembodied, mysterious, brown-skinned phantom force.

For his part, President Barack Obama spent half of his speech after the worst terrorist attack on American soil since 9/11 lecturing Americans for not being tolerant enough. Contrast that with a different speech last year, when he took time out of his Easter message to scold Christians for their “less than loving” behavior. Our president chastised Christians on Easter and excused Muslims after an Islamic terrorist attack. It’s incredible. Almost as incredible as Secretary of State John Kerry explaining how he can “see the rationale” for Muslims slaughtering cartoonists who draw pictures of Muhammed.

Now liberals balk at the idea that we should be wary of granting refugee status to Muslims, but most reacted with either silence or celebration when the Obama administration tried to deport a family of Christian home schoolers. They tell us we ought to respect the religious liberties of non-citizen Muslims, but applaud as the government forces nuns to buy birth control and locks Christian clerks in jail. In fact, the only time — and I mean the only time — a majority of liberals will so much as mention the phrase “religious freedom” is when they’re discussing Muslim migrants from the Middle East. The rest of the time they only cheer as the State compels Christian bakers to service gay weddings and Christian taxpayers to fund abortions.

All religions intrinsically have good intentions at the time of their creation, however, it is the way they are interpreted and implemented over time where they consistently go astray.

So the religion is kind of like fight club. That's why the religion is so screwed up.

Side: No

Islam is kind of like Atheism. That's why they bond politically. Their behavior is identical when they don't get their way.

Let my start by saying I am a Asatru Pagan. I converted to Asatru from being a Christian Baptist after reading as much holy text from any religion I could get my hands on.

I believe that all religions at their core teach people to do and be good, while also trying to define what good is. A simple fact of the matter is that their is no definitive proof for any religion so we can't know which is truely correct, we only have our faith to help us decide. It is when we go on to believe that not only is our chosen religion correct but any and all other religions are wrong and therefore the enemy that a problem occurs in the form of religious extremism. I don't think any religion regardless of how strange I find the teachings to be is inherently bad or evil I believe it's followers sometimes change said religion to become their justification for violence.

70 percent of all Muslims want Sharia law.......that is the majority of "moderate" and "peace loving" Muslims. Islam is the religion of murder, promising it's followers paradise as their reward for killing all Jews and Christians, and throwing all sodomites off of the tallest building they can find...and cowardly atheists will bow and convert to Islam to keep their heads on their shoulders.

There is no such thing as a moderate moo, they are all guilty by association when they claim there goofy guide book is holy. Even the small minority of Muslims who do not want Sharia law are still guilty by association. All mosques should be shut down as outlaw criminal organizations, and Islam should be outlawed. It's not religion, it's a political warring philosophy Hell bent on conquering the world.

Islam is good for throwing sodomites off of the tallest building, they are good for ending weirdo faggot parades, and they are good for stopping atheists from running their mouths.......

Also, they are good for sending Christians to Heaven by cutting their heads off, and they are good for blowing up Muslims. They're bad for trying to kill all the Jews.

Islam, or Muslim, is just a religion. An idea. It's the people who worship it that is the deciding factor. Since most are peaceful I would say, in whole, the Muslim community is good. Every religion has its extremists though.

Side: Yes

Islam is a religion of peace. It's the terrorists that make it bad, and they only make up a small percent of the religion.

If you insist that Islam is bad, then I must insist that Christianity is also bad. The Crusades are an example. You can't generalize a religion based on what a few extremists do.

Side: Yes
1 point

The Crusades, which can be counted on 2 hands, were in defense against the hundreds of Muslim conquests.

Islam isn't peace. They are commanded to slaughter us repeatedly like a drumbeat throughout the pages of the Quran.

What you don't realize is that those who follow the quran to the letter are the extremists. It's the source itself that is not peaceful. Read the quran and you will see.

People gobble up whatever the media feeds them and form their ignorant opinion on whatever is portrayed on the outside without even taking an in depth look at it. We know that a man involved in the Westminster attack was named Khalid Masood. And obviously, those ignorant people will go on about how his name is Islamic and therefore, he's a Muslim committing terror attacks. Little did you know, he was born with the name Adrian Russell Ajao, who apparently 'converted to Islam' now let me ask you something. Why do you think someone would covert to a religion? They like the religion, or maybe they found it interesting. And for someone to want to take such a big choice to covert to Islam, clearly highlights the fact that he must of learnt and studied about Islam before converting. He most likely also read the Quran before making such decision. And not one word in the Quran supports violence, or allows killing an innocent individual. Matter of fact, "killing one person is like killing the whole of humanity" Clearly, it doesn't make sense as to how someone would learn about a peaceful religion, convert to it and then go against everything the Quran preaches.

This was just an example to indicate how people today would rather make a complete judgment from looking at only a proportion of a thing. Islam is good, but over that name, lies layers and layers of absolute crap that hateful and ignorant people place. They would like to change the peaceful religion into one that is displayed as the worst. What a world we live in.

California is cited as having the largest Muslim community in the United States, an estimated 1% of the total population of the state. It is also estimated that a majority of the Muslim population resides in Southern California.

Any religion which can spawn followers who carry out the most vile atrocities in the ''NAME OF THEIR GOD'' cannot be good, but on the contrary, must be inherently demonic.

The barbaric customs and practices of the Muslim faith, such as female genital mutilation and the savagery of their Sharia laws all go to graphically illustrate the cruel disease which is Islam.

Side: No

no .islam is bad ,like all religions .happy now ,christian ?

Side: No

Muhammad was a pedophile, wife beater, thief, murderer and rapist, and Islam is a festering blight upon humanity. However, that doesn't mean I think all Muslims are bad, because just like all the other religious people they pick and choose the parts of their holy books they agree with and ignore the rest. The good Muslims follow the peaceful parts of their holy books, and the bad ones follow the violent parts.

Side: No

I wouldn't go as far as saying that Islam is, "good". But not all Muslims want a bloodbath. In fact, the majority of them would probably like to be left alone.

Despite our differences all around, we are going have to warm up to them some time. Vice versa. Otherwise we will just keep going around in this circle. The first place to start is to eradicate radical Islamic terror. And we will need them to help us on that.

That's my two cents.

"good" is quite a broad term.

Do I think Islam is good for society? No, but nor do I think Christianity and Catholicism are good for society either.

I'm not going to pass judgement on whether there is a God or not (I'm quite agnostic), however I think the existence of religion is not necessary and has greatly harmed society in the past and present; Islam is a notorious culprit of this.

People have the right to believe whatever they want, but it crosses the line when they attempt to force their beliefs on others, or justify and act out bigotry because of it.
