    Ah, the no true Scotsman argument. Never mind that every Islamic country pulls the same bullshit to some extent or the other. Go join the tankies over there in the denial corner.

      No, you silly goose. If you say “hey, I’m X” but actually do Y, you’re just being dishonest, with others and yourself, and that can be at the personal or the societal level. If you say you’re a good husband but beat up your wife, you’re not one, same if you’re a follower of Jesus but are all about profit and power, and ofc same if you’re a follower of Muhammed and go against everything the divine message put forth (including “to you your religion and to me mine”, which is again in the Qur’an).

      You just lack the intellectual capacity or courage to make the distinction between a person who says A and does A and a person who says A but beats children. But what can I expect from someone who just tagged me to “prove me wrong” or whatever. Enjoy the attention I’ve provided you, and remember to be wise and kind. 👋
