[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have not even seen all of his posts. I would have to find every post to determine whether, in my opinion, he committed any grave sin.

What I did see is you mocked him for something he has little or no control over. Immigrants (Muslim immigrants) rarely have a good command of English. Why pick on him for it?

As for the christian crusader-evangelical, STD comment, all was apologized for. Sorry you can not accept the apology but its no longer something I need to address.[/quote]
The person with bad English and the takfiri dude are two different posters.

Besides, SOME of the criticisms I noted are preventable and controllable.

STDs are primarily preventable with abstinence. Islam demands abstinence before marriage.[/quote]
Who cares what Islam demands? People on DCUM don't care about meeting your religion's moral standards.

And it doesn't demand abstinence before marriage, only chastity.  Just for you, I'll break it down.  Abstinence means hymen in place.  Chastity means having sex only with people you're supposed to.  A woman could have wild sex with her husband, have him drop dead from a heart attack, marry immediately after and proceed to have wild sex with husband #2, and all the turbans in the world won't raise any eyebrows.

Evangelicals are identified by the CIA as extremists, the same as terrorists. Those who accused Muslims defending their faith of proselytizing in attempt to lure Christians to Islam may very well be evangelicals. Who else would accuse a Muslim of proselytizing simply because he corrects falsehoods and misconceptions? Its an extreme reaction and a weighty accusation for merely defending one's faith.[/quote]
You didn't call people evangelical crusaders for accusing you of prozelytizing, only for disagreeing with you.  I know because I was one of them. Besides, you say "correcting falsehoods," I say "whitewashing." Meh.

[quote=Anonymous]
As for the stereotype of women wearing mini skirts, excessively indulging in alcohol at bars, and the prevalence of STDS in American society, these were presented in response to islamophobes also painting Islam with a broad brush and implying Islam is a barbaric religion. Stereotypes are offensive to anyone.[/quote]
Not really.  You reached out for those because those are typical ways in which conservative Muslims criticize non-Muslims, especially non-Muslim women. I've seen these talking points before - you don't think you're original, are you?  No one said anything about Muslims as people. [/quote]
