Even though this article is from the often bizarre and inarguably leftwing magazine The Atlantic it brings up a very rich list of interesting questions and issues. It compares New York City Mayor Bloomberg to Arizona's Sheriff Arpaio, which I find very intriguing.
I will start of the exchange over this article by stating that I do not favor discrimination on the basis of religion save for one, and that is Islam. While all religions have some bloodshed in their pasts and once had strongly antipathy for other religions, Islam can be singled out as the worst religion of all time.
It is the only religion that I know of that encourages mortal violence as a tool of proselytizing. Put another way, the Koran advocates the recruitment of new Muslims at the point of a sword, or bayonet or in modern times, at gunpoint. The Koran teaches that one must either submit (Islam is the Arabic word for submit) to its teachings and worship Allah (God) and his prophet (Mohammad) as it specifies or be k**led by a believer.
if thats true then the 3 million muslims in usa are doing a lousy job in obeying there religion not to mention about 1 billion more outside the usa.. you can take anything in the bible or the koran to justify anything and you know it so please stop with the my religion is better than yours becasue they all are crap

I don't have a religion. I am free to accuse any religion of anything I believe to be true. What I say about Islam is the bald faced t***h. Do all Muslims follow the Koran exactly? No. Just ten percent or so of them do that. Fifteen of them from Saudi Arabia flew airplanes full of people into office buildings full of people during working hours. No other set of religious people has ever done such a horrifying thing.

No christian religion promotes k*****g of those that don't believe the way they do. I don't consider Islam a true religion.
The Christain religion teaches no such thing as K*****G ANYONE!
