[quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous]too academic. The point is that comparing ISIS to Westboro given the difference the difference in their violent proclivities is not reductio ad absurdum, it's just absurdum.[/quote] Question to both of the two previous posters: Do you think the fact that IS claims religious justification for its actions means that the entire religion should be subject to criticism as a result of the group's actions? [/quote] No, I don't. Absolutely not. But to compare Westboro to ISIS is in practical terms, absurd. It's a line of argument that's best avoided, because you're just making it easier for those who do believe that ISIS defines Islam, to gain traction in arguing that you're wrong. [/quote]
