Thats the dominant meme… and it drives me crazy. Instead of treating Islam like Christianity, or Buddhism, or hell, a Cargo Cult, people want to make it an enemy movement. I always feel like its a good emotional shortcut for feeling okay about the generalized hate.

It gets backed up with bad history. That’s what makes me crazy!

But part of it is also figuring out what you call an enemy movement that believes itself to be the only valid expression of Islam. I say we don’t play along with ‘em.
