The list goes on and on. It seems to me Muslims are peaceful until you
disagree with them.
Why Is There No Hinduphobia?
The usual comeback to this is you cannot judge all Muslims by this “one
action”, but the problem is this is not a one-off incident, is it? When can we
start judging the faith by the actions of those who follow it? Literally
everyday you can read about something blowing up in the name of Islam.
When do a few cases add up to a lot of cases that give cause for concern? I
want to know what more Islam needs to do before it is recognised as a
violent religion.
There are about 2.5 million Muslims and roughly 1.5 million Hindus in the UK
with Hindus being the second largest minority group in the country, yet
there is no such thing as Hinduphobia. Why do you think that is? Are racists
that picky? Not to be too crass here but the usual skin tone of the
stereotypical follower of the two religions is quite similar, is it not? If
Islamophobia is the child of mindless racist Westerners, surely Hinduphobia
should exist as well? Yet it does not, and wherever you sit on this fence, why
do you not think about why it does not? Better yet, go on Youtube.com and
look up any videos regarding Islam, then llook at the top two voted
comments and you will see how many people see Islam in a positive light. I
think the only ignorant people are the ones refusing to acknowledge the
danger Islam represents, and the rightful growing fear of non-Muslims.
