What an utterly evil thing to say.
That you express little human compassion and seem most interested in remaking the world in the image of fundamentalist Christians? That's just an accurate characterization.
I'll take Jews or Hindus or Asians any day and you say it's nothing but racial prejudice that I consider Muslims dangerous to the nation because of Islam's texts which inspire suicide bombings and other forms of murder of "infidels" and the endless ambition to take the entire world for Allah? (I'm not thinking of me in particular at all, I'm thinking of the good of the nation and everybody in it).
What I
*did* say was that the particulars of the prejudice vary - I didn't say yours was racial prejudice, though if prodded to be more specific I guess I would say that yours seems more a religious prejudice.
But obviously you are so biased by PC the only thing you are capable of is accusing me of racism like all the leftists.
I didn't accuse you of racism. I accused you of prejudice.
What I'm actually doing is expressing concern and compassion toward my fellow man. It's just the way I feel and has nothing to do with PC or being a leftist (which I'm not). I think that instead of maintaining the long immigration waits and quotas for the war torn Syrian region that their immigration applications should be expedited (that doesn't mean rubber stamped). That's what we should have done for the Jews during WWII, and it's what we should be doing for the Syrians now. And the Iraqis, too, given how we wrecked their country and all.
Your concerns about Muslim violence are well founded, as I said back in
Message 1398, but truly sincere Christians would be working hard at finding ways to admit victims of the violence instead of concluding none can be trusted and erecting barriers.
