God damn you are ignorant, ISLAM IS A PROBLEM.
We aren't attacking it we are pointing out FACTS.
Islam dominated countries treat women like slaves and kill homosexuals and non-believers (yes Saudi will execute atheists and those who dismiss Islam) because that's what Islam TEACHES. That's a PROBLEM.
The holy texts of Islam preach to KILL non-believers, that's a PROBLEM, and there's no wrong interpretations when it very clearly says to kill non-believers several times.
It's FACT not opinion, which is why, yes, criticizing Islam is OKAY because it DESERVES TO BE CRITICIZED.
Do research before you try to claim Islam is actually acceptable.
Hundreds of millions of Muslims (even those in countries like the US) have stated they support Sharia law, which is HORRIBLE.
Don't sit here and tell me there isn't anything wrong with Islam when my friend in Saudi Arabia could be executed for THREE different things that are normal and widely accepted because Islam says it's a problem.
How is it illogical to interpret something how it was meant to be interpreted? Especially when it comes to a religious belief, what are you even trying to say?

When you flat out say it's bad, you're attacking it. Maybe it's valid. Racism is bad, but by saying so, you're attacking the racist ideology. Criticism is respectfully pointing out specifically why racism is wrong. Criticism is more influential and better to use in an argument. Rather than petty attacks like "god damn you are ignorant" as all credibility is thrown out the window at that point because you proved you can't have a respectful, substantive discussion, so you attack the person, rather than argue against them.
I also never said you couldn't or shouldn't attack, criticize, or argue in any way in favor of your opinion. I did, however, say that you shouldn't mistake your opinion as fact. That must have been lost on you, though. You were too busy being offended by my pointing out of your dismissal of the other side's viewpoint, rather than substantively arguing against it.
I also think it's a poor idea to mistake culture with religion. It's hard to distinguish between the two when religion is intertwined in government, which I fully agree is problematic. But they are different.
For probably the third time, I'll post this again:

Most Christians in the U.S., for example, would favor the banning of abortion nation-wide. They base that belief on their religious beliefs. But to ban abortion nationwide, many would argue would be to violate the rights of women. I disagree with that argument, but I understand it. The point is, based on that argument, Christianity wants to control womens' bodies. And Christians don't just favor the banning of abortion, they are actively working to get to that point by trying to impose laws based on their religious beliefs. I'm not even going to comment on sharia law itself. The point is that religious people from all religions and across every country try to create legislation in accordance to their religion.
