It (Islam) is a religion. Some criminals use a veneer of Islam to perpetuate crimes against humanity. Some woefully ignorant, isolated and generally incurious people cannot make that clear distinction.It is a political ideology.Haters gotta hate. The fear-driven reactionaries used to channel their innate hatred toward Communism. Today's target is no longer a political ideology but a faith. And that's more dire for our society. The haters want to paint one of this world's great faiths as inherently evil, just like the counterparts of the haters did inGermany circa 1939.
It might be considered a religion but I wouldn't say it is on equal footing as the other faiths today.
