    Criticizing Islam is a favorite topic of American media, such as Fox News, the most famous of them. The workers in these stations are not fanatic Christians but are just opportunists who seek publicity and a monthly salary. But at the same time, they contribute to promoting Islam by raising the curiosity of their viewers to continue studying Islam. The result is the opposite, Islam is spreading in the United States. The problem is not in criticizing Islam or Christianity, but rather in providing misleading information. For example, Robert Spencer, an American anti-Islam author and activist, who criticize Islam without adhering to the lowest standards of credibility and objectivity, publishing false news about the discovery of a jihad training camp in the US state of Alabama. It is a simple example of the extent to which the likes of Spencer misleading Americans.

    They demonize Muslims and raise the fear level of Americans and Europeans because that translates to more funds in their bank accounts. Another Conservative American journalist and activist, Brigitte Gabriel is another example of the industry of hate and bigotry. Brigitte claimed that she left her country Lebanon during the civil war because of Islamic jihadists. That lie is easy to expose because the parties to the conflict during the Lebanese civil war were belonging to communist, leftist and nationalist currents, and there were no Islamic jihad factions in Lebanon. Islamic extremists from all over the world were busy providing support to the states United in its conflict with the Soviet Union in Afghanistan.

    Another important concern is the demographic dilemma, which is considered one of the favorite topics for the conservative media and the European right-wing parties. Mark Stein is one of the best people talking about the demographic issue, and I read a number of his books, one of which talks about the environment, and I like his style. I even sympathized with him when I read his book "America Alone" and that he was sued in Canada by Canadian Islamic organizations to ban the book and withdraw it from libraries. But he talks about the demographic problem as if Muslim women should refrain from having children to maintain population balance in Western countries and Europe. While he ignores the fact that Muslims play no role in the declining birth rate in western countries, Western media are promoting that they need immigration and that immigration is essential to save the Western civilization due to the declining birthrate. Corrupt European politicians are the cause of the problem, the low birth rate in Western countries caused by the attack on the family values due to the prevalence of contraceptives, congenital decay, pornography and abnormal relationships is one of the most important reasons for the decline in the number of births in the West. Surprisingly, those people who talk about the demographic problem are themselves childless or have given birth to one or two children at the most.

    Extremists constitute a minority of more than a billion Muslims. Conservatives and their supporters want to wage an all-out war against Islam in the name of the clash of civilizations. But on the other side, some Islamic extremists promote similar propaganda. Extremism is a problem that exists among followers of all religions. Islam, Christianity, or Judaism has nothing to do with peace or war. It is a reflection of own actions, personality, and environment of the individual in which raised. Religion is considered a catalyst. If a convert to Islam was well-mannered and treated others with respect, Islam will be recognized through him. And if the converts to Islam were an evil, criminal and murderer, others would recognize Islam through him. Therefore, the role of religion in a person’s life is not fixed, it is altered, and dependent on the moral standards of the person himself.

    If one is not going to strictly adhere to the written standards of a religion and instead go by his own moral standards, why even believe in that religion? And, to be honest, if a person claims to be (insert any religion), but doesn't closely follow said religion's tenets, that person is not a (insert religion).

    If a person claims to be (insert religion), I can only assume they believe in the tenets of said religion. And if said religion contains tenets that are evil or immoral, I can only assume that the person believes in those tenets.

    Any religion that lives in the 7th century is going to be out of step with the rest of the world. Islam is a cluster.

    But the American media is extremely pro-Islam. And it despises Christianity.

    An un-American action usually results in a pro-American reaction. When Obama killed 14 Americans by removing Muslims from the terror watch list, Americans reacted by wanting more protection from anti-American forces.

    When Obama referred to a mass murder by an Islamic Terrorist as workplace violence Americans also reacted.

    When VA Gov Northam and his Democrat legislators celebrated the passage of a law that allows live born babies to be murdered at the option of the mother, Americans who cherish a country in which Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness are rights of an individual at birth, can be expected to react. Radicalism begets responses it should expect.

    Could you explain further what you mean?

    If a person says they are Baptist, but they believe Jesus was just a human, are they truly Baptist? If a Catholic doesn't believe that Christ instituted the papacy, is he really a Catholic?

    religions were abused by people's greed and selfishness. Religion is a catalyst for own personal characters. Imagine a drug dealer quit selling drugs and turn into a religion or a convict in a couple of homicides introduced to god in jail, got released, and then claim a holy Jihad in Syria or Iraq. Bad people don't mean religion is bad. Muslims topple down two empires, the Romans and Persians. Theses empires did too many bad things to people under their rule. Romans in Egypt were hunting and killing the local Coptic, Christians Orthodox. While later on, Catholics in Spain were very busy hunting Muslims and Jewish. Followers of all major religions have done bad to each other. But I don't believe religion involved, the texts misinterpreted.

    If the other religions followed the ANCIENT scriptures to a t, they would get criticized also.
    Someone made the argument if you don't follow it completely then what's the point?
    The point is that we are in modern times.
    You got muslims still acting like it's the year 1400.
    Also let's face it, gods didn't write these scriptures, people did.
    The only thing written by God was the 10 commandments and I think most of those principles are universal for all religions, accept thou shall not kill because according to Islam you can kill infidels (nonbelievers).
    How in the hell do you expect people to NOT have islamaphobia with crazy concepts like that. Bottom line. If you defend islam, you defend rape and murder. Oh wait ,my bad. Maybe they deserved it because they forgot to cover up some skin. My bad!

    Whenever there’s a massacre of Christians somewhere in the world, the American media ignores it.

    But if one Muslim feels disrespected in some way, that’s the lead story on the news for weeks and we're told by the media how Islamophobic we are.
