On another thread, I made the statement that I judge modern nations by modern standards. Therefore, a nation today that does not allow freedom of religion or assembly or the press, within limits for security, are problematic. By my standards, most Muslim nations are backwards and not modern.
Another poster mentioned that I hold to this thought because I do not want to dig up the past wrongs of Christianity. This is untrue. In reality, I hold to it as an example. We outgrew the mentality that you kill anyone that disagrees. We do not kill those who offend us.
Muslims love to throw the whole “We’re 600 years younger” whenever anyone mentions women’s rights or anything like that. Fine. Live like it then. No more cars or electricity. No more modern medical care. If you want to act like it is 1408, live like it too. Let us have the oil in exchange for sheep or horses or whatever, as you have no need for it.
OR
Allow people basic human rights. Allow freedom of thought and worship. Allow people to voice disagreements.
OR
Please be quite about how peaceful and accepting Islam is. Obviously, it is like that on paper and has failed miserably in application.
