re: #3 Randall Gross
Until it comes to Muslims, the cognitive dissonance is there with this bigot and we’ve had this conversation before.
Condell is right on the money, in my opinion.
There are wonderful Muslim people, and Islam in and of itself is no better or worse than most major religions.
But if one thinks Islam as practiced today worldwide doesn’t have a grossly higher proportion of problematic issues related to fundamentalism than other religions in the West, then one is quite honestly kidding himself.
I don’t recall anywhere where Condell condemns individual Muslims for the collective actions of large swaths of politically powerful Islamic groups and fundie practices, but he pulls no punches when it comes to these groups and practices and those with allegiance to them - nor should he.
