Muslims Being Unfairly Singled Out Over Islamic Terrorism


Man, if it wasn't so sad it would be funny.

And just to be clear: Yes, of course all religions have their nuts. That is a given. It's the kind of given that's so patently obvious that only those with an agenda would point it out.

But as a social scientist I have to be honest about what the statistics point out. And these statistics are kind of hard to ignore.

I'm just not sure how you have an honest debate when you start with the empirically falsifiable premise that all religions lead to the same behavioral outcomes. This is clearly not the case.

Pastorius,

Its not surprising when one looks at the statistics, nor is it unjustified to be more worried about Muslims becoming terrorists, than people of other faiths. Islam is not a peaceful religion and it shows.
