Yes, it is a dilemma. How do you sort it out and still protect the children? But you have good point. I need to be more careful. I will think on how to do that.

Look Koan- I don't care who puts their name on an idea- who do you know that is like this? Do you know anyone on SI like that?

And Islam is not Ted Cruz on steroids. Islam is not one thing. It's more like Baskin Robbins- and their 31 flavors. Christianity isn't one thing. Judaism isn't one thing. There are flavors to these religions. And let's face it, many people, apparently, want a big guy in the sky- so the thing to do, imo, is to support the less harmful flavors. Saying irresponsible things that make all Muslims seem the same is foolhardy and counterproductive.

wow, I'm sorry, it was my fault, I was the one who brought up this subject when mentioned I agreed with Bill Maher regarding Islam has many backward societies and brutal policies in the name of their religion and there are liberals that give them a pass, mostly young uniformed peeps, in the name of "political correctness"

I wasn't referring to anyone on SI... just stating an opinion

and I reiterate it... Islam has many backward societies and brutal policies in the name of their religion... and there are many so called liberals who give them a pass on it... the truth is what it is... I will also bash christians for the goofy stuff they believe, but i do not see a bounty being put on the head of christians bashers as opposed to people like Salman Rushdie, who had to go in hiding simply for giving an opinion, or the charlie hebdo shootings simply for comic satire

there is a difference... but maybe just a subtle difference in the historical human history of time, but a difference none the less
