"Atheist admits why it’s ok to attack Christians but not Muslims
Written by Allen West on November 2, 2015"

'Allen West' – you can't be serious.

A subjective, wrongheaded opinion and lie from the right – indeed, from one of the right's most infamous liars.

Elaborate, please. Where is the lie?

Whine about the source. Just another attempt at deflection.
But since I've put up the audiotape, they've all crawled back into the woodwork. Clearly it's not just Islam they're terrified of

I think there's much more to it than simply worrying about retaliation. It goes much deeper.

Anytime you have a discussion about America with liberals, they'll always head to the negative side.

For instance bring up a founder, say Thomas Jefferson.
You'll describe him as a great man, a founder, author of the Declaration of Independence, third president.
An American liberal will immediately bring up that he was a slave owner, and should not be honored.

This is the way it goes across the board with American liberals, so naturally they will attack the predominate religion, and take the side of all the minority religions when applicable.

It's become an internet joke, but say ANYTHING negative about Islam or it's followers, and you know the drill, liberals will be tripping over themselves racing to the computer to post the usual "But, but, but, the Crusades, Christians, blah blah blah" It never fucking fails.
They will always point to bad behavior, in order to justify other bad behavior when the other bad behavior is counter to American culture.

It's interesting that this professor would admit he's afraid of Muslims, but the truth is, liberals simply do not like this country, and are not cheerleaders for it.
The old proverb applies here:
"The enemy of my enemy is my friend"

They must get so confused with Islam in the picture. They have to turn their backs on so many of their pet projects, women's right, gay rights and even the freedom to be an atheist, as Zuckerman says. I do believe many of them are terrified of criticising Islam, what with fatwas and what not, but I also sense the self loathing for their own history and culture. I just wish they could be less hypocritical in their approach and more honest about where they are really coming from instead of screaming islamophobia and bigot at every opportunity. I think it's an awful state of affairs that a professor admits he is criticising Christianity, Judaism and whatever else, and leaving out Islam. Kind of despicable really.

At least he can admit he's a hypocrite, unlike our resident Dembulbs. Maybe we should invite him to join the board

True, but he didn't seem to feel too bad about it.

Not hugely surprising, but nice to see a libtard admit it is they who are the actual islamophobes. Poor babies.

Atheist admits why it’s ok to attack Christians but not Muslims
Written by Allen West on November 2, 2015

Remember during the last National Prayer breakfast when, after the savage burning alive of a Jordanian fighter pilot by ISIS, President Obama chastised Christians for the Crusades? And y’all know how vicious the leftists Islamapologists speak out when we bring out issues surrounding Islamic jihadism and terrorism? Of course, we have an administration that finds it much easier to attack political opposition than to identify the true enemy of the State. Why?

Well, it seems one gentleman had the courage to answer that question.

As reported by CNS News, “An atheist professor said Tuesday that it’s acceptable to criticize Christians but not Muslims, because he does not “fear” retaliation from Christians.

“I know what keeps me from critiquing Islam on my blog is just fear,” Phil Zuckerman said at a discussion on religious liberty at Georgetown University in Washington, D.C. “I’ve got three kids. “So I know I can say anything about Christianity or Mormonism, and I’m not living in fear, which is a testament to Christianity and Mormonism, and that’s wonderful. Thank you,” said Zuckerman, who is a self-described atheist and professor of secular studies at Pitzer College in Claremont, Calif.

Zuckerman was a panelist at the discussion as part of Georgetown University’s Religious Freedom Project at its Berkley Center. Kirsten Powers, a Democratic pundit, recent convert to Catholicism and author of the book “How the Left Is Killing Free Speech,” said at the event that she does not understand why Muslims can oppose same-sex marriage and not be targeted by the Left for it, but calling out Christians for their beliefs is acceptable.

Powers cited the hidden video recordings made earlier this year by Steven Crowder, who asked Muslim bakers in Michigan if they would bake a cake for a same-sex wedding and they refused. “If these had been Christian bakeries, it would have been on the front page of the New York Times, so I’m wondering why we’re able to have this amicable, disagreement with Muslims for having this view,” Powers said. “Why are we not able to do that with Christians?


“I absolutely agree with you,” Zuckerman said.“I absolutely agree that it is okay for those on the left to critique, mock, deride Christianity, but Islam gets a free pass, which is so strange, because if you care about women’s rights, if you care about human rights, if you care about gay rights, then really Islam is much more problematic – sorry to paint Islam with a huge brush – and much more devastating,” he said.”

We have asked that question here SO many times: why does the progressive socialist left give a “get out of jail free card” to hard examination and critique of Islam, yet are just giddy about attacking Christians? – the latest example being Kim Davis in Kentucky. We’ve shared here the pictures, reports, and stories of Islamic jihadists throwing homosexuals from rooftops. We know about ISIS fighters reading from the Koran before raping young Christian girls. There are numeroous beheadings, crucifixions, and other forms of despicable executions to which we are exposed via social media and yet, every single excuse is made. And if you bring this out, just as I’m doing now, it is I who will be castigated as invoking Muslim hatred — such was the case with Bernie Sanders last week at George Mason University.

Well, thanks Professor Zuckerman for enlightening us as to why this insidious hypocrisy exists — the left is a bunch of cowards. They actually feel it’s just that easy to disparage and demean Christians because we’ll “turn the other cheek,” as opposed to Islamists — ok let’s be honest, Muslims — who will throw a hissy fit. But it appears that when Muslims throw a hissy fit, somebody gets killed — shall we recall Charlie Hebdo? Don’t forget the attack on Dutch filmmaker Theo Van Gogh who simply pleaded, while being stabbed to death, if he and his assailant could just talk about it.

Atheist explains why the left thinks it's ok to attack Christians but not Muslims

Okay, this guy is a coward for not wanting to endanger his family and he openly admitted it. Now let's hear some condemnation of those on the right who have let their fear turn them into fascists without even noticing.

Or.....better yet, how about addressing the issue instead of trying to set the narrative like the typical Prog

He's desperate to deflect and not discuss this rather important admission from the liberal professor. They are so transparent. Lol.

Spare me the LOL's. This thread you're so proud of is standard attack-a-liberal fare, one of ten thousand or more in these forums, shallow, devoid of any ideas about solutions to core problems, ad hominems thrown out to chum the waters. Trolling for liberal fish who mistake bait for real issues is the point of the thread. Discussing "this rather important admission from the liberal professor"? In the grand scheme of things he is about as important as an average grain of sand on an average beach. So take your little thread and milk it for as much vitriol as you possibly can...anyway it seems to need life support, you better get back to stirring the pot.

I guess it hurts to have your cover so thoroughly blown by one of your own
