So, you criticize evangelicals if they find an interpretation of the relationship between men and women that you disagree with.
Yet, if a conservative even mentions anything about the relationship between men and women taken by Islam, you label such criticism islamophobic and label them bigots.
Aren't you engaging in a little hypocrisy?
By your own standards, wouldn't it be fair to call you a christianophobe and call you out for your bigotry against evangelicals also?
The funny thing is that many Evangelicals and Muslims are OK with how their faith/religion define that relationship and espouse it. And, you know that is allowed in this country, it's called freedom of religion.
Let me help your understanding a bit as I helped my own. I grew up surrounded by evangelical Christians, so I know this group and I know them well. I knew no followers of Islam. I had to research and learn about Islam, and one thing I learned is that
Muslim refers to the culture while
Islam refers to the ideology. If you are talking about followers of the religion, they are Islamics; if you are talking about a group of people, they are Muslim.
Hope that helps.
On to your points. You obviously have not been around the WC long enough to know that I have little use for supernatural beliefs of any type - so it doesn't matter to me if it is a Christian belief or an Islamic belief - to me, they are equally ridiculous. It is equally ridiculous, then, for two separate groups who both believe in magic to fail to understand that their problem stems from their silly ideas about the reality of magic. Stupid is an open borders country.
Hope that helps.
And finally, evangelicals. Let me help your understanding
here:
Quote
We believe that the Bible is the Word of God; without error as originally written. Its content has been preserved by Him, and is the final authority in all matters of doctrine and faith-above all human authority
I quoted the verses that these evangelicals believe supports the view that women should be lesser - subservient to men. Evangelicals and followers of Islam have the same notions about the inequality of women - yet each claims the other is wrong because they have the wrong coach on their team. Open borders, again.
Hope that helps.
Btw, is there a democrataphobe? Do you have a mirror?
