I like Muslims, but when they tend to turn towards Shiite or Sunni Islam, they are more susceptible to terrorism. . . Sufism is a very tiny denomination compared to the main branches of Islam, they know they should be approaching Islam in a more meditative mindset.
The Fundamentalism of the Biblical religions, Judaism and Christianity, is less dangerous. Even in Judaism, which has the old harsh laws, there is no ancient style of Israel's government anymore. Nor will there ever be in the way in which it used to be. Gay people won't be executed for having sex with each other, at least not in a sane Israelie society, but the Fundamental, word for word Christianity is about how people are supposed to act right now, and in further generations.
Islam occasionally has good laws about hospitality and even giving refuge to those running from their enemies, but because of the Fundamentalist stance of abbrogation of verses, the good tenants of Islam are always kicked out of the way by the hard core Muslims. People don't understand that if you want to be a "moderate Muslim" the only such thing exists in Sufism, and you are more likely to come across a Rainbow colored pansexual trillionaire Republican Jew than a Sufi with the number of Sufi practicioners that there are.
People want to practice Islam and that's okay, but if you go into either Shiite or even Sunni, you're risking your society if you want to be a hardcore practicioner. I believe that Islam is exactly what the radical folk, the moderate folk, and their critics all say. I believe that Islam is not just a religion of Peace, but also a religion of pure Evil, and a religion that is neither and both. . .
If I found out there was some alternate universe where Allah is God, I would certainly not be Sunni or Shi'ite. I would have to be Sufi. I am not Muslim, in fact, I don't like the religion. I like some Muslims, that I've met, but it is dishonest for many to say that Islam is entirely consumable by the West without poisoning. We can't force people to become Sufi if they are Muslim, but when they come over to the West through migration, we have the right to criticize Islam as a whole.
People who live under Islam experience nightmares, literal nightmares, where they lose eyes, fingers, limbs and genitals, both for real crimes in which they are severely punished in the worst way imaginable whether or not they deserve it, and people experience horrific crimes and persecution just for the sake of Allah in some evil, bloody Jihad, regardless of the actual definition of the word. (Jihad).
Islam needs to be allowed, but people have every right to speak against Islam, as it has brought evil to the West, under it's form of radicals. The fact is that no matter who you are, you must obey moral and ethical laws to remain ethical and moral. You cannot murder civilians, each other in the religious faith that's starting all this insanity, and torture whomever you want, and be called a peaceful religionist.
The Muslims who do evil are evil, period. There is no excuse for people who guard Islam with the freedom of the West, which Islam hates so much, to deny anyone the right to speak out and criticize Islam. To call those who hate Islam racist is both vapid and probably unethical, because there are many who hate Islam for what it has done.
Now, while I argue that Islam is responsible for it's own radicals, I can make room for hypothetical situations and the possibility that it isn't the source of it's own blood shed. Take heed, however, that even though most Muslims are just fine, most Muslims are in an evil religion that finds an easier time in corrupting it's practicioners into doing evil.
So, in conclusion, look out for Islam, allow people to be who they are, both the critic and the follower of Islam.
