I'm not racist.
Criticizing religion isn't the same as criticizing race. As far as religion, I'm an equal opportunity offender. I rip on the Jews. I rip on the Catholics (even though I was brought up Catholic). I'm completely merciless to the Mormons. (then again, low hanging fruit!) I rip on the Evangelicals.
Now, to anticipate the next question, "Why don't you rip on the Muslims, are you afraid they'll cut off your head?" (Or some such nonsense.)
I don't rip on Muslims for two reasons.
First, I really don't know enough about their faith to make serious theological arguments. Unlike most of you people, I prefer to argue from a position of knowledge.
Secondly, our problem with the Islamic World isn't their religion being any sillier than anyone else's; our problem is that the West has been engaged in 200 years of colonialism and imperialism of their part of the world, and Israel is the last vestige of it.
