Muslims must engage with Islamic ideas that give rise to terrorism : Comments

By Tanveer Ahmed, published 9/10/2014

Those Muslims who cry Islamophobia repeatedly when asked about terrorism and Islam do themselves a disservice by not ­engaging with the ideas inherent in Islam that might lend themselves to actions of violent ­confrontation.

"...That is why they justify Islam and continue to be Christophobic to the maz."

Surely, runner, you're not indicating that your regular hate-filled rants and derision on OLO represent in any way the ethics of Christ?

When people identify themselves as "Christian" and go about trumpeting the antithesis of his message - then it's all a bit of a furphy.

They then invent terms like "Christophobic" seeking to attach their venom as a defence of Christianity - which they employ like some impenetrable shield from behind which they can fire their nasty little darts with impunity.

No-one's fooled, runner.....

Your "Christianity" should have acted as an antidote to your natural propensity to malign and disparage those who don't share your faith.

Fail.

"When .... then it's all a bit of a furphy"

Great article, well written. If we had more of that kind of clarity of thought within the community, we might well make some progress in resolving these issues, sadly that is lacking.

Yep Poirot you are pathetic at identifying Islam so why should I take any notice of your 'view ' of Christianity. Fail!

I thought that the problem was that Muslims [do] engage with Islamic ideas that give rise to terrorism

The problem for anyone wanting to challenge Islamists is that in Islam the Koran is held to be incontrovertible, the radicals have just as much a right to their views as the so called "moderates".
Challenging the literal, Sunni interpretation is no mean feat, it's akin to attacking Marxism by offering an alternative theory of surplus value based on Marx' own writings.
