    I wonder how many reckon the extreme side of Christianity (which we see currently devouring the rights of the peoples of the USA) is a threat to our way of life too…

    As a British voter, Christiofascism worries me far more than Islam does right now.

      I do.

      All forms of religious extremism are a threat to our way of life.

      Islam is getting targeted at the moment because the others aren’t currently violently trying to enforce their version of a fictitious deity onto us.

        Indeed, religious extremism, at least that which outwardly affects others (if you want to be extreme in your beliefs and live in a cave away from humanity to achieve enlightenment that’s cool go for it), is a threat to everybody.

        Nobody’s ever tried to violently force Islam on me, or anybody I know, though.

        Now, Catholic Priests and Teachers at our religious UK state schools on the other hand? Ooh, the stories we could tell…
