    No... You can say Islam is terrible and not think all Muslims are terrible people.

    We have so many shootings here it doesn't really even make the news unless they are Muslim.

    Yup, special ops combined with extensive cyber warfare/countering their propaganda, and resources for intelligence/LE agencies, to include funding for additional personnel. Also, special ops against actors in ME need to be complimented by boots on the ground by local forces.

    Those guys were still practicing some form of Christianity... That does not make Christianity awful... That makes them nothing more than a cult

    The same goes with ISIS... These guys are nothing more than a Cult and as LosPollosHermanos stated they are closer to a cartel..

    I cannot blame an entire religion.... Hakkem studies Islam, does that make him awful or a terroist? How about Kareem or Ali?

    The only way this ever stops is from within the religion itself.

    How can you say Islam is terrible and then say all Muslims are terrible people??? If Islam is terrible than all Muslims would be terrible...

    Isalm believes in a lot of the same concepts as Christianity and Jewish religion.... NOT ALL... The big difference comes into play with the New Testament.. So that would make Christianity and Jewish religion bad..

    Not sure who Hakkem is but none of the people you're replying to are saying all Muslims are awful, so arguing against that position is a waste of time.

    Yes you can. You should not blame all Muslims, but you can certainly blame the ideology.

    Again, nobody said all Muslims are terrorists.

    There are many Muslims who were born into the religion and just ignore the bad parts. And even converts can always rationalize things so they fit into their natural empathy. But ISIS is closer in behavior to the founder of the religious ideology of Islam than Hakeem is.

    So Hakeem can be a good person despite being a follower of Islam, not because of it.

    No, this is incorrect. Most Muslims (fortunately) ignore the fact that the founder of the religion was a pedophile warlorld and pick and choose the elements of the religion that fit their natural empathy and kindness.

    Mitch,

    I agree ALL Muslims are not awful and that would also mean that Islam is not awful since that is the religion they are studying..

    Again, you are wrong, see above.

    As to the terror attack:

    This might have been a neonazi attack, not an Islamist attack.

    I'm sorry but ISIS didn't invent Islamic terrorism and violence. There's been violence and conquer and destruction in the name of Islam since the religion was founded.

    You can certainly think a particular faith or lifestyle is terrible and like those that are part of the faith or lifestyle. The totality of a person isn't their religious faith. Some people are nominally religious, more secular or choose not to practice parts of the faith that are horrible or objectionable.

    The founder of Islam would be incompatible with the modern world. He was a pedo rapist that killed a great number of people. Some of that was the world he lived in; but that is kind of the point.
